Vera,

That is so sweet. I would love to hear you sing also. I was singing

to my new grandchildren the other night and they didn't seem to mind.

Grandchildren love us regardless if we have a good voice or not,

don't they? I guess that is one reason they are so special. Did you

get your tooth repaired? I am sorry you had to go through that pain.

I do not like tooth aches, they are to close to the brain, makes them

more painful. That was always my reasoning anyways. lol We finally

got some rain this evening, not much rain, but we got some. We

haven't had any rain in weeks. I try and keep my gardens watered but

nothing does for them what the rain does. My grass even looks bad. I

think what hurt is that we had a lot of rain and then none for so

long. I hope and pray that you have some good days ahead.

Love and gentle hugs,

Belinda

Vera,

I am so glad that I made you laugh! That is even better than singing!

I still need to send a picture of my garden but it looks so pitiful

to what I thought it was going to look now. I guess it couldn't stand

the heat anymore than I can. Well, I have an appointment to have the

neuropsychological test done on the 29th of August. I think I was

told on here that test was to check which parts of my brain has been

affected the most. I do know I have a brain now because they did 3

MRI's and proved it. I guess now they have to prove it works. lol I

have to admit that it does work at times but only at times. lol I

have been in a lot of pain with my muscles and I have been tiring a

lot easier too. That is one of the reasons that you haven't seen me

post very much. I am not on the computer like I use to be but I still

love showing up and reading and posting when I can. I always love to

hear about you, Hannah, and Fred. I am so glad you got to spend some

quality time with your son. If you are like me that doesn't happen

very often and is always a blessing when it does. Your stories of

your life happenings always make me smile and laugh alot because you

can still laugh about it even if it wasn't laughable at the time.

Thank you for this. I love you bunches and I thank God for you.

God bless,

Belinda

Vera,

I was going to go out and take some pictures of my garden this

morning but don't know where my daughter has put my camera. She loves

to take pictures with it. Maybe I will be able to do that tomorrow. I

think we all have good days and bad days. It just seems like some of

us have more bad than good at times >smiling< I am not going for a

new MRI. I am having the neuropsychological test done. Can someone

tell me what they do to you on this test? Do you just type in the

computer and answer questions or do they hook something up to your

brain like an EEG or what? I just like to know before hand what they

do. As of right now I just know the test lasts for 3 hours. I will

try and get the pictures to you soon because the lack of rain hasn't

made my garden look any better, if anything it looks worse. The joys

of gardening but I wouldn't want to quit doing it for all the tea in

texas. lol

Love and gentle hugs,

Belinda

Belinda:

Believe me I can relate. Right after Fred had to stop working because of the MSA, my son and his wife and three kids came to live with us. No extra money for anything. So I understand. I will be here waiting to see your garden when you get the pictures.

You take care

Vera

Vera,

I need a new memory card in my camera. I don't have the money to get

one right now. It's the pits living off one paycheck and having 6

kids (3 teenager boys and 2 grandsons, 1 daughter)but I know most

people can relate to me. Gone are the days when I could just run out

and get whatever I wanted. Thankfully, I have a lot to be thankful

for so this will not get me down. As soon as I can get one, I will

take the pictures no matter what the gardens look like at that time.

Love and hugs,

Belinda
