Life is just a bowl of cherries?

Life is getting a little more settled, I think. We are all managing a bit better. This afternoon, Kenny decided to take advantage of the fact that I was in the "big house" making some iced tea and Larry was sleeping in the chair in the living room. He needed to go to the "urinal" ( I told him I have no urinals except those plastic things we brought hom from the hospital!) and he decided to get himself there by "pedaling" the wheelchair to the bathroom. He confessed when I came back in the cottage, saying, "I won't do that again!" I am surmising that it wore him out. He did sleep most of the afternoon. The Turkey! He is feeling much better. We are beginning to solve some of his less dangerous but nonetheless uncomfortable maladies (like hemorroids); did you know that compounding pharmacies even make suppos-itories? Rectal Rockets, they call them. More info than you all needed? Sorry!

The weather is just gorgeous. I think I will try to take him out for a short walk tomorrow. It is this time of year that I miss staying at the Inlet (for those who do not know, that is our place near the beach, on the salt marsh south of Myrtle Beach.) He always enjoys being able to sit on the screen porch and have his coffee or his lunch and watch the birds and enjoy the breeze. Although we do have a "lift" there, the house itself is a bit over-populated with furniture to be handicap-friendly, so I do not think we will be able to spend much time over there this summer. Seems to me I have already told you all that. Good grief! I am starting to repeat myself. Sorry! Anyway, back to the weather. We have had no rain in the last longest and with the horrible forest fires about which I am sure most of you have heard, things are a bit dry and a bit hazy part of the time. Usually in the evening when the wind shifts, we can smell the smoke. Thank heavens they are almost out; just some smoldering areas that will require vigilance on the part of the fire fighters. In spite of the lack of rain, our trees are bright green and all of our magnolias (12, I think) are covered in buds. We should have some beautiful blossoms in a couple of weeks. Maybe I can figure out how to post pictures. We have a great on of Harrison, Benjamin and Papa that we want to post. I'll see if I can surprise you all with that tomorrow. Good Night!
