Good News!

September 24, 2020

Good morning.  Today is supposed to be another gorgeous day here in my little part of New England.  Sunny with clouds and temps in the mid to upper seventies.  Oh my, I can dig it!  And for the next few days too!   

Not too long ago, I mentioned how a storm going through Pennsylvania toppled a tree over on to my cousin Anita's craft shed.  The shed and all its contents were destroyed.  Needless to say, she was  devastated.  Her hubby bought her a new shed, and she sent me this photo of her standing in the doorway of her new shed.  Awesome!

My other good news is also awesome.  For years, I've been wanting to see a photo of my maternal grandmother.  There didn't seem to be one anywhere.  All I knew about her is what my mother told me many years ago.  She was a beautiful woman who died young.  (In the early 1930's)

My grandmother's name was Edna, and another cousin and I were named after her.  Well, yesterday while I was talking on the phone with my cousin Anita, I mentioned wanting to find this photo.  She got all excited and told me that she had a photo and would send me a copy via Message on my phone.  

Can you imagine my surprise and joy?  I got the photo and tried to clean it up a bit in Photoshop.  (It looks like it may have been a copy of a very old photo.)  Either way, I'm thrilled to have a copy.  So, here is my beautiful Grandmother.  

The folks from the lab never came by yesterday, so I did not have any blood drawn.  When I called them, they said that they had decided that I was not housebound enough to qualify for the home service.  I wonder why they never called me to let me know of their decision.  I left a message with the doctor's office, and now I'll wait for them to call me.

Today Deanne will come by after work and take me to get my Flu shot.  Maybe I can pick up a few things while I'm there.  There are items from the Frozen department that are hard to order online because they are almost always out of stock.  

Now I'm off to do a bit of blog reading, and to pick out something to wear today.  So, till tomorrow, Y'all stay safe and have a fantabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.
