I recommend re-hosting images on a service like imgur or http://sli.mg. It has the advantage the images probably won't disappear after a few years, and it also protects your privacy vs directly sharing an image from a think like Facebook.

So you are officially a member of the Lutheran church now, having gone through confirmation???

Built new shelves to go over the kitchen sink and cabinets. Still have to prime, paint and seal it.

Nice, I like the concept, but how are you going to hang it?

Screwed to beams above it.

Aha! Now it really begins to open up for me. Nice!

Today .. must drive into town for routine fasting labs, 14 hours.

i was in the house most of last week, sick with a terrible cold that hit-hard with e-v-e-r-y symptom "in the book." ugh. fever and sinus headaches were the worst. still coughing, hoping it will not mutate into bronchitis or pneumonia.

i have had both in the past, not for over 10 years.
i know this, judging from the expiration dates on cold medicine in my cabinet!

i had a box of (vintage) Kleenex in there, too.
comparing my new box with the old, it appears we are now getting about half the tissue in those same size boxes! for the same or higher price. tricky marketing.
the numbers may be similar, the tissues are not the same. achoo!

i am blessed to have not been sick, especially during those years when caring for my husband and mother. we did lots of handwashing, "walk in the door, wash your hands!" - with all we had to cope with, seasonal flus left us alone. wash hands and pray! we shared so much, were so grateful for our time together.

at that time, we heard (from Hospice nurses) of so many deaths in hospitals/nursing homes .. patients dying of flus and infections. at home, we were able to bypass those things. to have more time together, quality time to share and remember.

so many loved ones in my heart. friends and family.
well. my grandmother told me, this is the hardest part of getting older. missing loved ones.
i was so young, a child. probably 10. i had no idea what my life would be.
now, somehow, i am her. or, my best imitation of her! in her shoes, i'll just have to do!

My wife is just getting over a cold and the rest of your lament is very close to home, but with my own parents in mind. Hang in there Em.
