Checking in!

Hey all! I miss coming here and reading and posting. :(
Bad internet service. Sometimes I can get on ( after a 10 minute loading wait) but to log in.. phhhtt! Surprisingly, today has been a good 'net day! That hasn't happened in .. well I can't remember when!

Just thought I'd try tonight and give you all an update on me.

I'm still at the lake. Mr DA is in MN. He comes every weekend. We had a long weekend this time! He's looking at houses for us. Has a couple 'guys' helping him with the areas. (weed out the bad) He's been to SD already! He stays in a motel when he's there. He really likes the new office and the people there. He says MN is beautiful!!
I can't wait to move there!

I'm helping out as much as I can with the in laws. Cooking mostly. Keeping them company, hanging out in the nice weather, watching the sunsets and the wildlife.. .. ( I know ... it sucks) :) Pretty laid-back life style here.. Fireworks everynight!!!!! Starting about now... ohhh yaaa!

I did have something happen last week. Woke up in the middle of the night with my foot in excruciating pain!! I think something bit me. Tried to walk and I couldn't put any weight on my foot. There is no mark or anything, but I have a very swollen foot. It was red ( could have been a bit sunburned) but the swelling and pain would not have been caused by that. Even a week later, it's a'hurting! ( Doesn't help I twisted it wrong today and it started all over again)
And I smacked my baby toe 5 days later, I think it's broke, or at least badly sprained!! NOT having a good week, this past week!
Minnie (dog) and I look pretty pathetic hobbling around for our walks. She's got bad legs too. :(

Have some family coming tomorrow to stay for a few days. Mr DA's older brother from TX and nephew from Racine. Will be nice to see them. Mr DA will be back on Thurs.

Hmmm not much of an update, but at least you know I am still here!

How was everyone's 4th? What's new??

Good to hear from you!

Your foot sure sounds like a spider bite, they can hurt like hell and really swell up!

MN, yes there is some beautiful county up there. I like driving down the Mississippi river on the MN side.

Take care young lady.

Nice to talk to you last night, even though it was my connection that kept failing. (my antivirus hates the pop up window in facebook)

We could have saved some typing if I had read your blog first!

Good to hear from you, DA. I've been worrying about your internet connection. Our site is way too busy for dial up.

Maybe a spider bit your foot? That can hurt like heck and not leave a mark.

I'm glad the 4th/5th has passed. Too much noise and partying for my tastes.

Glad you are still with us...but sorry to hear about your injury.

Hey, the first 4 comments didn't show earlier when I posted my comment.

kkdither said...

Commenting is FUBAR this morning. Hales post at the top says no comments too!

MinnesotaChick said...

My fault?? LOL

I'm back.. for however long I dunno...

OrbsCorbs said...

We've missed you, DA. Hope your connection stays strong. Does it slow down at certain times of the day? How's your foot doing?

MinnesotaChick said...

The connection.. comes and goes at will! Just took me a couple hours to get back here..

Foot, still puffy. Now my opposite hip is hurting because I'm favoring that foot.

I'm falling apart!!

drewzepmeister said...

Glad that you're still around DA! Hope your foot gets better soon.

KK, I've got that issue going on in my blog as well. Thank God, all comments posted go to my e-mail!

Beejay said...

And I've had issues with my internet as well....I think the internet Gods are mad at all of us!

kkdither said...

Hmmm..... conspicuously missing is Madame Zoltar though this internet debacle!

That sounds like gout - get it checked out. Processed meats like brats in particular will cause an attack. One pill and you'll feel better, if it is...

-Been there, done that.
