Only in the south do we know about standing on chairs to turn on ceiling fans! I stood on a bed once to do the same thing..not smart with your head so close to the fan. Hope you are healing nicely and on the mend.

Be careful!<br />I know they always tell us, don't stand on chairs, use a step stool. Love the waterlogue photos. Such a nice effect. Your chicken look so good along with the salad. Sometimes simple is good. We did have an outdoor dinner party down by the pool. We had planned this in advance of Sasha's decline.

Everything except for the arm all bandaged up! Glad Abby and Mr.Blondie helped out some. I've a mental picture of him in his slippers now! <br />I've been away from the computer so much, I missed this post until just now. My eyes and throat seem some better now.<br /> Our Independence Day will be very quiet and "Independent", as far as I know. Since hubby doesn't grill, I don't know what we'll have. Maybe a tomato sandwich...a salad?? :) I do think I'll take the weekend off from bagging up and throwing away stuff/junk, though. My back has staged a protest, and it seems the more I throw, the more it grows. Plus, I need a break from the ever depressing dust and cat hair I get covered in. Ugh--I need help, and I don't think it will ever end.<br /><br />It's so nice that you have plenty of family around you to celebrate holidays. Have a wonderful 4th of July weekend, friend!! <3<br />xxx TrudyBluebird49https://www.blogger.com/profile/01195892307835553912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-61617457692233463902015-07-03T07:51:59.416-05:002015-07-03T07:51:59.416-05:00OOPS, sorry you fell!

It made me feel a bit uneasy, like danger could be lurking out the back door or, in your case, in your daughter's bedroom. One minute, fine, the next minute...not so fine. Well, I'm glad to know your daughter is home and that your husband is taking extra care for you. It is WONDERFUL to have a caring husband. Hey, I'm not so sure I like that watercolor app. I studied for years to paint watercolors and it is better than I am! <br />Ginene Fox and Finch Antiqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05945366509809871312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-9900510697753651002015-07-01T20:49:17.474-05:002015-07-01T20:49:17.474-05:00Oh no, Jane!
