LOVE living in the "mountains"...which seem like hills to me but I love them anyway. We still have all 3 dogs with us...the cats we left with the new owners of the farm and the chickens we sold some and gave away. The donkeys and horses were sold before we decided to move. I do miss the old farmhouse and all the work we put into it making it our own...but I'm happy here and when it comes down to it...I guess that's all that matters really. :)Maura@Lilac Lane Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06147119202838652332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7808466973944614765.post-12850928468101091682017-10-10T12:09:54.115-07:002017-10-10T12:09:54.115-07:00Hi Shirley, not sure if you'll remember me...I...Hi Shirley, not sure if you'll remember me...I used to have the Blog Lilac Lane Cottage where my hubby and I lived on a small farm in Kansas with our chickens donkeys horses geese dogs and cats. I haven't visited any of the Blogs I used to follow for a long time so this afternoon I went on my old Blog and checked out the Blogs I followed and saw your post with the pic of your Grandson and his horse. I'm so sorry to read about your husband being in hospice now and that you had an accident and broke your leg...that's a lot to deal with. I'm also sorry to read that you're not living at home while you're getting physio. I hope the docs get done what they need to do and that you heal up quickly so you can get walking again...one step at a time. I love the picture of your Grandson and his horse...it's a beauty! Congrats to him for doing so well showing in English...I showed a few times in Western horsemanship...that was a LONG LONG time ago. It was nice seeing pics of your embroidery projects...the perfect way to fill your time. Take care of yourself and I'll come back and see how you're doing one day soon. :)Maura@Lilac Lane Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06147119202838652332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7808466973944614765.post-19846934645446521672017-09-30T22:29:23.673-07:002017-09-30T22:29:23.673-07:00Yay, Shirley!

I'll be praying for continued improvements for you and praying for your hubby. Your grandson did well at the horse show and I know he was happy that you were there to see him. Take good care of yourself and know we're all pulling for you to get better.

My heart is breaking, Shirley. You do sound uplifted, Small steps are huge steps. Are you still in the apartment? And how is your husband health wise?<br /><br />I was so happy to see your comment and now I feel terrible for not having stayed in touch. Take care of yourself, get well, and think of yourself for a bit!!!<br /><br />Love and hugs,<br /><br />Jane xxxBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7808466973944614765.post-50788866765209563602017-09-27T17:44:05.713-07:002017-09-27T17:44:05.713-07:00Praise the Lord, Shirley.

I am glad you got to see the horse show but sorry you were so tired afterwards. I feel sorry for your hubby. I am sure it is a disappointment to him to be in the shape he is in and knowing he will probably not be able to walk again. That's a hard thing to adjust to when you know it is long term.<br /><br />I know you will miss your grandson but I know you are proud of him, too, for going off to a school that will teach him a trade. Really good mechanics are few and far between...and I bet he will be great at it.<br /><br />I hope you continue to get better day by day by day.

I did not know you were going thru all that you have.. I am glad you are on your way to recovery. I left a comment on an old post of yours, because I did not know any other way to say hello to you. I am praying for you and yours. Please know that you are in my thoughts and heart.
