About the Yard / Pumpkins and Outside Decorations

Took the camera out to look

at my Egyptain Bean Vine,

the beans love it.

I love this plant. It is purple for 

one thing and it is so pretty.

I have been collecting seed pods

from it for next year.

This is one of the seed pods

with a neat looking bug on it.

Another purple plant I have.

A Box Elder bug.

My Four O'clock plant did not 

grow big at all. When I had them many

years ago I had some really large

ones. Could be cause I actually had 

the seeds for two years before planting 

them. I picked them up off the side walk

in front of my son's home in Calif.

But look.....I have a couple of seeds

from my plant.

  

This little lady has been hanging

around on the deck.

She stays just outside of 

Lily's reach!

Took this at mom's house. My

monkey grass is solid color leaves.

I like mom's better....need to get

some of this.

Went across the street to the neighbors

yard and took a pic of these.

Fall surprise lilies.

Love the color.

I have the pink ones that come up in 

late spring.

 I went to the Dollar Tree

and bought 3 styrofoam 

pumpkins and I painted

two of them. 

One a darker orange 

(bottom)

and a white one.

Then with my E6000 glue

I stuck them together

and out on the porch they

went.

  

Just waiting now for the first of

the month for me to put out

the Halloween stuff.

This hangs by the front door

near the doorbell.

I know that folks probably hate

hearing about my pain but I only 

tell it to share. I don't do it 

for pity. I do it to bring awareness

to 

FIBRO.

Not only do you deal with pain

you deal with fatigue.

You deal with Fibro Fog.

Right now I have all three.

But there is so much more.

With the FOG comes stupid things

you do. 

I misplaced my sunglass back in July.

A month later I found them in a 

box of stuff I carried upstairs.

They are prescription sunglass.

Then a few weeks ago I misplaced

my eyeglasses. I looked and looked and

could not find them. I have been 

wearing them for over 6 years.

Eyes have stayed the same so 

I figured it was not that big

a deal, I could use some new ones.

Today I sucked it up and went to 

Wally World and purchased 

some new ones...

out of the box ones for me.

About an hour later I found my

other ones in the backseat floor

board!

Guessing they fell out of my

purse when I set it back there....

just need to learn to zip that 

purse up!

Concentration, focus, staying

with a conversation is really hard

when the pain is kicking daily at 

the rate it has been. 

HAHA...but if you think that

is bad, you really should share

a conversation with me! 

I am totally all over the map

when I am flaring. I start 

a conversation and jump to 

something else before finishing

the first and then back again.

One of my best friends Theresa

never bats an eyelash. She has

been around it so much the last 

few yrs, she just lets me go on

and never points it out to me.

 

Nope these are not my new glasses, they

will not be ready till the 30th. 

But I did purchase these

while I was purchasing my

glasses. These are safety

glasses for when I work with

my saw!

One last thing....

my mom finds all the best 

deals. As the weather was getting warmer

she found some really pretty tops on

clearance for $3. 

Found me four cute dresses for

$1.00.

And yesterday she found these

silky feeling gowns for $3.

Today she went back to see

if they had my size, they

were marked to a $1.00!

She got me two, they only

had the pink in my size

so she got two alike...

SO COMFY!

I generally don't wear pink but

I think with the grey hair it

works.

Check out that price!

Thanks for stopping in,
