Some Updates

                                                                         Everyday is a brand new day,
                                                                          everyday is a journey.

 praise Thee while my days go on;
  I love Thee while my days go on:
  Through dark and dearth, through fire and frost,
  With emptied arms and treasure lost,
  I thank Thee while my days go on.
E. B. BROWNING.


So I have to be truly honest here. I am in love with the Farmer's Market that I go to every Saturday. I will miss it terribly when it's gone in the late Fall. I'm not the only one, either. I take my mom with me and she keeps telling me stories of her youth back in Poland. These were the type of vegetable markets they had back in Poland. 

Then there are the delicious meals we are enjoying of freshly grown veggies. I'm sorry, but there is a huge difference in the taste department. I've been stocking up on the different jellies for the Winter, but we've been digging into that as well. That's what Summer is all about, you know, eating fresh fruit and veggies. 

On the other hand, I've been feeling pretty restless, my legs hurting big time. Not a good week at all. Enough for me to seriously think about seeing a specialist. If all I have is arthritis, I want to hear it from the specialist and not my GP who hasn't even taken any tests to determine, but only look at my age. 


As to my legs, I did find a solution to my legs hurting while driving, especially long distances. I've recently tried this method for an hour long ride to Woodstock, Illinois. It seemed to help quite a lot even though it looked ridiculous. 

 Now about my prize for the coloring contest. I won a Summer Survival Kit that included a beach mat that folded into a book, some hand lotion and a shower body wash. Back view up above.

 
On the front view, the kit included a bug repellent spray and a fan powered by your iphone or tablet. Pretty cool, I thought. 
It's another pretty hot day this weekend and pretty soon, Summer will all done. Enjoy this while it lasts.

Have a blessed day everyone.
