Christmas Soon

Christmas will be knocking at our door soon.

Our little community nestled in the Kansas Flint Hills
has Christmas Music playing downtown. 

Stopping off to pick up the mail or buy a local newspaper, 

the sounds of the season can be heard.  

Adding to the atmosphere.  

Love it!

Think I'll turn some Christmas music on in my house 

and enjoy the tunes.  

It is BITTER COLD outside.  Getting out in it has been difficult for me.  I no likie the cold.  My back stiffens up and my muscles lock.  It's not my cup of tea.  

Over the week-end, my Husband prepared for this week's Cancer Treatment.  I drove the car to Topeka on slick roads and didn't waste anytime getting HOME after my Husband received his Sunday afternoon injection.  

He checked into the Hospital on Monday morning receiving a high dosage of radioactive iodine for the ABLATION.  Isolated for three days, he has now relocated to a SUITE at a nice Motel.  He is still isolated having to push water into his system and showering three times a day.  He can now be 8 feet away from people.  We stay in touch by phone.  Tonight I will deliver to his door some TV Dinners, Chicken Pot Pies and Soup so he doesn't starve.  He has a microwave and miniature fridge in the Kitchen area of his Suite.  A nice television with cable in the sitting area.  

Modern plumbing for grooming.  

Soon he will return HOME.  

This evening, I believe Daughter will take Lil Miss to get a picture with SANTA.  Ho Ho Ho.  Merry Christmas!  Maybe she'll smile really big.  I hear that this year's SANTA is a good looking one.

I sure like this picture.  This is how it was when I was a kid.  

We pulled sleds in the snow covered roads without fearing that cars would get us.  

I grew up in Liberal, Kansas.  

The ROSELS always had their house decorated with this Lawn Art.

Loved it and looked forward to seeing this each year.

They'd play Christmas Music.

  

A Tradition.

50 years later........The Harps, 

present day owners of this house,

Honor the Season with the same Lawn Art.

You know....i need to add to my bucket list.

I would like to help create a outdoors display 

for our HOME on the Prairie.

Sweet Talkin' my Hubby on this one.

Merry Christmas.

I have much to be THANKFUL for.

Dear Blogging Buddy,

Hope you are well.  

Thanx for stopping by!

I enjoy and cherish hearing how things are going in your life.

This day is finally here.

Over the week-end I went to Topeka to get injections

 in preparation for Ablation.

On Saturday, I was given a thyrogen shot 

and again on Sunday.

No bad reactions.  Got along just fine.

Monday I check into the Hospital for my radioactive treatment and stay.

ABLATION.

As far as I know, in the morning 

I will get a chest x-ray and bloodwork will be done.

In the afternoon, 

I will be given the radioactive pill and then be isolated.

My radioactive SPA.

If you were outside the Hospital window, 

I'd wave and smile at you.  

You'd know me by my radioactive glow.  

Cheese!

So for this week I will not be blogging.

I will have withdrawal!!!!!!!

Will miss you 

and will be looking forward to chatting with you later next week.

Will return with my regular post about 

THE ART OF Cooking and Serving

also 

OLD PRAIRE TOWN

plus my regular stuff.


I have my old pile of magazines ready to go 
with me that will be pitched after I read them.
Because I will be radioactive, 
I bought a toothbrush for each day I will be hospitalized.
Use and pitch.
I'll be wearing no make-up. 
No jewelry. 
Time to pray in the quiet of my private room.
I decided that I will wear one of the Hospital's gowns.
Won't I be stylin'?

Love Blogging and love you.

God Bless,
