I’m still feeling the red and white. Don’t expect it to go away after Valentine’s Day either!
I saw the ankle specialist the other day. Now I have a stress fracture. He’s scheduling an MRI to look at my tendons. This whole thing is just making me terribly tired.
I’ve had these mums over a week, and they are still beautiful. More beautiful, since the blooms are opening. I change the water every other day. I sure enjoy seeing the yellow loveliness when I walk through to the kitchen.
Seems that February is just passing so fast.
It’s looking rather gloomy outside. I think it’s going to rain. And naturally I have an appointment I need to get to just after noon.

Lovely touches!
Brenda that is bad news about your ankle. I know you are tired of all this with your foot! Love the red touches, they do brighten up a room!
hugs,
Linda
Oh Brenda…..glad they are doing a MRI. Something just isn’t right. You have been taking care of this leg/ankle/foot and things just keep on happening. You have to be so down about this. You can’t stay in forever and off your feet. I have been staying in way too much and it gets depressing.
The sun is out here today and it was yesterday……and it helps. I think we all have a little S.A.D.D. Hoping you get a little sun in your neck of the woods.
I think red is there to stay in you cozy little house. It’s just your color.
Please send me your address………grammypetals@yahoo.com thanks.

It’s a gray day here too, Brenda. I hope your ankle heals quickly. Your yellow mums are beautiful and would brighten up any day! February can’t seem to move fast enough for me.
It’s not nice that your ankle just won’t heal…something’s got to get better, and soon.
Love the touches of red.

Brenda,
That ankle seems to be a never ending battle. I sure hope they find a way to get the problem fixed. Have you been taking any supplement to try and speed up the healing process? Loving your red and white theme right now and you are right mums last for so long they are a great investment.
I am sorry about your ankle I have the tendency to pull muscles and tendons easily and understand the frustration. I love the touches of red and agree there is no reason to put them away red can be such an energizing color to have out all year round.
I am loving your touches of red and white! I hope the ankle specialist gets to the bottom of your health situation quickly.
Love your biscotti canister – and I hear you on your love of red! Funny – I noticed that all of your pins are red!
Hope your ankle is feeling better.

Love your pops of red.
So sorry about your ankle. My dad goes for his next appointment on the 25th. We hope and pray his healing is progressing.
