The Good Side of My Cat Scan Trip

Time to go for the CAT Scan

I wish it were that simple. LOL   Especially since I am claustrophobic. But below is the reality.

And many will not understand how that can be so painful or cause someone chronically ill to hurt and feel bad for a couple of days after, but it does. Riding in the car into our little town will make me hurt all over and exhaust me and takes me a day or two to catch up. One reason I stay home so much.

BACK from the CAT scan.

And look what the lady at the registering desk gave me. A beautiful red rose. She knows me from having to go to the hospital so much. I thought that was so sweet. She also knows that CAT scans are hard for me.

And then riding home we saw about five deer in yards eating. They had their new antlers and they were still fuzzy looking.

I just happened to look down the alley and saw the deer so son circled around the block so maybe I could catch them to take pictures. They are so pretty and look so healthy. They appear to have broken off from the bigger group that I saw last year. I do not know how that works…if the male takes so many females with him or what.

And would you all just look at son’s garden. I am so proud of him because to have a good garden takes a lot of work…especially out here. It is nothing like growing back in Georgia where you just stuck something in the ground and it took off. The ground here is horrible and the plants take a lot of tending and a lot of hoeing to keep the ground broken up enough around the plants so that the roots will grow deep into the soil. This picture of the big garden bed he made. The other side looks the same. We are eating tomatoes, peppers, snap peas, radishes, zucchini already and the other plants all have blooms all over them.

If anyone has recipes and ways to put up or can zucchini, I would appreciate it. I know the obvious..in salads or just alone with dressing, zucchini bread..although I do not have a recipe, and zucchini casserole. But am looking for other ways to keep them and to use them. Thanks

And last, but not least, my beautiful mountains.  Sorry about the glare spots. That is a dirty windshield.
