Another Visit From NED!!!!

18 years ago

His 1st visit with us was while DH was in the hospital (with bronchitis). This last visit was at the Drs. office this afternoon!!! Jenni posted for me a couple of weeks ago,letting you know they'd found another "spot" in DH's lung. He had the biopsy last Friday and we got the results today.

Who's NED you ask? Well..he's someone you WANT to pay you a visit when you're dealing with cancer (or any other disease) He's..

NO

EVIDENCE OF

DISEASE!!!!size>

The Dr. said this last place was just infection! He also biopsied the 1st place and said there's NO active cancer there!!!

Thanks from the bottom of our hearts for your continued thoughts & Prayers!!!

Ha! I must have just missed you. I went on Friday... I had gone 3 years ago, but didn't have a chance to go back until this week. It is a great nursery, and of course it is spectacular in July when all of the daylilies bloom. This time I picked up Geranium (Bevan's something or other), which is supposed to be good for dry shade, a lovely epimedium, also for dry shade, plus some hens & chicks for fun. I love their display gardens.

Doctorant We many cattle egrets down here. And when they are in breeding plumage, they are just beautiful. Here is a little information on them. Connie Hagar was a noted ornithologist in Aransas County, Texas arriving here in 1935 and died here in 1973. She was very well respected by many ornithologist, including Roger Tory Peterson. In 1952 or 1953 she identified a cattle egret on Mustang Island which was considered the first here in Texas, but it stayed for only a few days. Then by 1956 cattle egret reappeared on Mustang Island. And today, we have them all over south Texas.

Extended visit from family member of DH

Wow! Houseguests! I don't want them and I don't want to be one, either. As for the suffering we have to endure in the name of civility and "family" - that belongs to a bygone era. Nothing against civility, but from the moment she invited herself with 2 kids, she broke the rules. I have a feeling that she knew you would be "nice". I turned our guest bedroom into a walk-in closet, got rid of the bed and am polite but firm in turning away all requests and pre-made plans from family/friends and invading Huns. Likewise, when we visit friends and family in other areas, we stay at a motel or hotel. I had to do some work to get DH on board with this, but he is oblivious to whether we have 100 people or just us, the guys don't have the onus of entertaining, cooking, etc. Oh - one more thing that always works when they stay too long - run out of toilet paper!

Ned new furniture and want to make smart design choices
Q

The TV is too large for where it's at now. It obviously does not fit so it's kind of an eyesore. In front of the window is not good as daylight backlighting is hard on the eyes. Maybe you don't regularly watch TV during the day, but there will be weekend sports events. I would put the TV on the wall opposite the window. Get a carpenter to make the TV nook match the bookcase on the other side of the fireplace. My feelings about the mantle and shelves is that the wood is too light. The black of the fireplace and that overwhelming TV make me want to paint the wood black, too. You would also need to paint the top of the half wall between the family and dining rooms, and that would also match the color of your dining chairs. However, I don't know how this might impact the other side of your dining room and whatever else might be visually connected to these rooms. I see no reason to change out the tile around the firebox, the color matches your walls and floor and you did not mention painting the room. I am loathe to suggest overly large pieces of furniture. They tend to limit design. If you want a chaise, get a chaise rather than a couch with a chaise. I prefer to mix sofas with chairs. Balance two chairs and a table against the visual weight of a sofa and its coffee table. You have two vents under the window that should NOT be covered. If you put a sofa there move it out from the window, and behind it put a sofa table that won't block the airflow. Such a large window could be a good place for an indoor tree. I hope you choose a colored sofa (love the color on the back of your bookcase) and perhaps even some patterned chairs. I am so tired of taupe on taupe. As a general rule sofas and chairs are 36" deep. A chair is usually 30-36" wide. Loveseats will be 60-72"' wide and sofas will be 72-84" wide. The variation in width can be attributed to the size of the arm rests and styling. Measure each of your walls. Then take your tape measure with you when you shop so you can measure how large each piece is before you buy it. Large furniture can look small in a huge showroom.
