Very LONG Time...

It's been a very long time since I have written on this blog. It was before we moved from Dayton to Bradner. We moved here 2 years ago this past November. The move was extremely hard, but is so much for the better.
We are slowly working on the house the best we can. We put in laminate flooring, as the house had horrible filthy carpets. We painted all the walls, Have done a lot of landscaping. We still have some to do, but it looks so much better than it did.

My health has been pretty crappy, but things could be worse, I suppose. I spent a week in the hospital at Christmas last year (2014). I was the diagnosed with COPD. They called it a pneumonia, COPD exaberation. Never even knew I had COPD. I smoked for about 6 mos back in 1999, but only smoked a few a day. They think it is from second hand smoke from childhood and from my hubby. He no longer smokes and hasn't since 2007. He has severe COPD.  I also had a C Diff infection since the month before I was in the hospital. We never could get it healed up with medications and ended up having a transplant for it, in July, 2015. My grand daughter was the donor for me. I owe that sweet girl, my life as I was so sick and immune suppressed. I have some really great doctors up here in the Toledo area.

My daughter and grandchildren who live across from my house have been such a blessing to David and I. They keep us both more active and happy. We take them to school and pick them up. Cooper will be 9 in March, Sydney is 13, and Morgan is 15. Taylor will be 21 in March and lives in Bowling Green with room mates.

 I have been diagnosed with drop foot in both feet and need custom braces for both legs. I just have to come up with the funds to purchase them. My medicare deductible has to be paid and the 20% co-pay, so now I just need to win the lottery..LOL. I will look like Forest Gump, if and when I can get them. My foot specialist doesn't seem to think I will be able to walk much longer as I have lost so much muscle and strength in my legs from the neuropathy. I am hoping to prove him wrong, but need the braces to help.

Lots of other things have happened this past 2 years, but will close for now. Wonder if anyone will read this? I know I have been terrible, but with all the changes, illness, depression, from those, I just have not felt like blogging. Let me know if you came by.

God Bless~
