weather has been all over the place this week... tolerable and sunny and now the wind is gusting horribly and snow is back on the way.
oldest daughter returns from buffalo this evening-- looks like they'll be driving in some of the weather... thank goodness for text messaging for some quick updates.
dad's good friend from college swung by yesterday and dad was able to get up and sit in his chair to visit for a few. just one of those perfect timing things-- had we planned it, it wouldn't have worked out so well! he did more listening but interacted a bit so i know he enjoyed himself... course he hasn't been out of bed since, but hey--
dad had a huge bloody nose the other night-- when i first arrived it looked as if there was serious trauma... i thought perhaps a fall and head injury... thankfully i could cross those things off the list and quickly determined it was just a nose bleed. his bed, pillow, hands and shirt took the biggest hits-- nothing on the carpets or elsewhere. poor guy-- got him cleaned up and he was good to go again. mom mentioned perhaps his blood pressure spiked, but that's in a good range-- so for now, it came, it was and now it's done.
our guy who helps us with the nastier landscaping stuff came over yeterday and cleared out a lot of brush from the creek area. sure opened things up a lot-- looks great. a couple of neighbors stopped him and gave him grief as if he needed some sort of permission from them to clear out our brush.... hubby and i are scratching our heads over that one. guess they prefer everything to be hidden... i'm more inclined to believe they don't wanna clean their portion of the creek. so'k by me-- i like the greenery too, but i prefer it to be cut back when we have to get by or under it on the tractor while cutting the grass!! we take care of our house-- you take care of yours.... but yeah, i can see your kids and their buddies throw their beer bottles and trash in the creek better now.
brother visits our parents today while i take a bit of a break this afternoon. happy sunday, everyone!
