Doctor cut back on two of the medicines the hospital sent him home with and the new EKG was great. Another visit for Abe tomorrow with the urologist. His PSA was 3.1 last March this time a year later, it is 6.6. Hoping it's just some kind of infection. Will keep you posted. Just mowed the yard, second time so far this Spring. I love Spring but I don't care for all the mowing. Although it is good exercise for me. Well have to run, think I will take a short nap before suppertime.Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16106461789118388241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898025342845778058.post-67834382067728997492008-04-22T22:19:00.000+10:002008-04-22T22:19:00.000+10:00...and I just now see that there is a book publish......and I just now see that there is a book published on this story about the daffodils...I must see if I can find it around here or online.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for sharing the special writing...being that it's Earth Day.Hootin Annihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08811326085498312568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898025342845778058.post-17942279297995215552008-04-22T22:15:00.000+10:002008-04-22T22:15:00.000+10:00Merle, I didn't even take time to read your jokes ...Merle, I didn't even take time to read your jokes today...I wanted to comment on the daffodil section of your post before it completely skipped my mind [senior moments of course...I get 'em all the time]<BR/><BR/>Anyway...<BR/>You typed: "It looked as though someone had taken a great vat of gold and poured it over the slopes....."<BR/><BR/>I was so startled by the words you used...it was like I was right there standing beside you.

I planted some new day lilies yesterday, that a friend gave me. These are called golden globe. Today, I will plant a small scarlet maple tree, in honor of Earth day!<BR/><BR/>What a beautiful story and pictures about the daffodils! And a great lesson in that. And I loved Shirley Goodnest, and the lovely prayer. May Shirley Goodnest and Marcy be with you today and always, dear Merle.<BR/><BR/>The jokes are funny as always. Got a kick out of "mother of six." And the wife's wake up note. Love the Abraham Lincoln quote! <BR/><BR/>I always enjoy my visits with you, dear Merle. Have a wonderful Wednesday!<BR/><BR/>Love and Blessings<BR/><BR/>RenieRenie Burghardthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02660484248593903002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898025342845778058.post-16592548677219584522008-04-22T09:17:00.000+10:002008-04-22T09:17:00.000+10:00strange you're talking about stopping waiting...

I glad you and reader enjoyed Shirley Goodnest and Marcy.<BR/>Had to get up and get Prince off as he is still working on that problem at 4:30 this morning so I have already done a full days work. So I quit. I thought the painter would be here early but like most workmen have not arrived yet. Today and tomorrow are the best for outside painting as they are predicting chances of rain the rest of the week.<BR/>PeaceLady Di Tnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13314994067842063387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898025342845778058.post-74508980613690803202008-04-21T23:59:00.000+10:002008-04-21T23:59:00.000+10:00Merle ~ Loved the jokes and especially the flower ...Merle ~ Loved the jokes and especially the flower pictures.
