Beautiful Wednesday!!!

Merrel's Iris

Merrel has a whole bed of different colored iris. They are more beautiful this year than I have ever seen them. They don't last very long but I am glad we are here now to enjoy them.

Merrel did real well last night, said he slept good even though he had to lie on his back on an elevated bed. He is up and around today but comes back down to sit and rest often. We have a beautiful day----just about perfect in every way. He wants so much to be outside working in his garden and yard but he cannot do that. Sherlyn is mowing our lawn today. He needs the garden tilled but there is NO way he can do it. He may never be able to use the tiller because of the "shaking". Seems it would be worse than the chain saw that he has been banned from. He will miss being able to do all the outside things but perhaps there will still be some things he can do but right now he just needs to take it east and let his incision heal and his body adjust.

I have loads of things to do before we leave on Sat. so I better get busy!!!

Love you,
