Hello to all of my fig friends!!  I can't believe how the weeks have flown by!  Things are OK - not great but OK.  I'm taking things one day at a time, one issue at a time.  I find myself thinking about my Mom a lot!  So much more then before she passed - I'm sure that's normal, even though I don't remember having the same response when my Dad passed.

Things are getting back to normal - Luce (the 1 1/2 year old puppy) had a 2nd surgery on her hip last week.  She is doing so much better then the first surgery!!  She started walking on her leg the day after surgery - I am so thrilled with her recovery.  I just know she will be back to her old self when it heals.

My friend moved out so I thought it would be a good time to paint - something bright and cheery.  Glenn will hate it - too bad, he doesn't use that room anyway.  I decided to make it "my" room.  I'll keep most of Luce's things in there and have some space for my own creativity, painting pictures like the avatar.

I'm also going to paint the Master Bath, and hopefully put down a new floor.  I had a long holiday weekend and was going to do everything over 4 days, but..........  Glenn had a tough week which means I had a rough week.  

Things will get done when they get done.  Some trees are still alive, of course the in-ground tree is doing well.  The garden is a bust - just lost "it" for the garden.  I halfheartedly water mostly dead plants and thriving weeds.  The flower beds are in desperate need of attention, I think the weeds are even getting crowded out!!

I have to start taking care of things I care about - what a concept lol.  So, that means coming to visit my fellow fig-natics.  I hope your trees gave more figs then you could humanly eat, if not, maybe next year.
