Doing a lot better, still didn’t get a ton of sleep but did get 3-4 consecutive hours of sleep which makes a difference. I learned it helps keep the nurses out if you tilt a chair back so the back of the rest top is under the handle to keep the staff out. I also learned this makes the staff angry.
 
Good morning everyone!!!! I slept until 6:30 this morning then was woken up by thunder so loud it shook my house. Love the doodle Steve!
Good morning Peanut!

Good morning Mike, absolutely, a lot of flowers enthusiasts on s the Smorg, we go through patches of posting our flowers. Shelley is about as excited about flowers as her reefing.

Raleigh is great but there's way too many people there for my taste. I live in Sylva which is about 5 hours away up in the mountains.
 
Much better today, only forgot my oj! Look Amanda, I’m drinking coffee again, black like my heart and soul!
