~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

Hope you had a good time with the family Slo, and I'd also be interested in hearing more about the surrogacy.

How did the flower planting go Ginger, hope your knee held up okay. I'm thinking you'll probably be fine with the replacement and wish you'd done it a lot sooner.

We are also having ham and the rest of the trimmings for Easter Jude. We usually get a smoked ham and then heat it up on the smoker for extra flavor. I really like the left over double smoked ham for sandwiches.

Waves to the rest of the gang!

I'm ready for a knee when they'll do it! We had a great day buying and planting flowers. Gdaughter is due any day now and I think she was hoping the extra activity would encourage baby to come but.... she's still prego as of this morning. Maybe today!

Helping little sis with a project today then showing our 5th wheel at 2p. Fingers crossed it sales.

Waves all!! I'll take another day of freedom

Hello, everyone! I stayed overnight at D1’s and drove home this morning. It was a beautiful day out yesterday, so spent the day outdoors while the kids played on the driveway. Got to read bedtime stories to Mabel at night, and help Cooper blow bubbles.

D2 is having someone else be a surrogate for her. They were able to have Huxley with fertility treatments, but have been unsuccessful since then.

Sorry you need a knee replacement, Ginger. I hate mine. Actually, the original was good; but I dislike the revision, and also the nerve damage around it.
Did you enjoy your time planting flowers with g-daughter and the littles?

24 more easy AF hours for us all, please!

Today is my volunteer day so as usual, I'm checking in late. I just can't seem to squeeze in computer time in the early morning before I have to leave for the hospital. I noticed a big difference in the level of daylight this morning. Last week it was still quite dark and brights were needed to watch for deer and other wildlife. But this morning it was light enough to see without the brights. We are definitely moving toward Summer!

24 more for all of us here, please and thank you.

Dill, I've also noticed the increased daylight lately which is a great mood booster! I also love hearing the variety of birds in the morning; it's a great way to start the day.

Looking forward to another 24 hours of serenity...

[dill]

Yes, Jude, the bird song is lovely! Yesterday Mr. D and I went back in our woods and sat by a creek. I sat there and closed my eyes and just listened to the sound of the water. So peaceful.

Let's all have another day of freedom and calm.

5:20am in Alberta, another 24 for me please, and thanks...

In the last 24 hours, these friends have joined in for 24 hours of wellness:

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[abcowboy]

Keep us informed about the new baby please Ginger. Did the 5th. wheel sell? Your little sister must live close to you I presume?

I imagine it's an exciting time for your daughter Slo, will she be spending much time with the surrogate mom?

I too enjoy the longer days Jude and dill. Love watching the flocks of geese fly over and I see the doves are back, still waiting for the robins though.

Hope things are well with you Rava.

My baby is here!! Young Daughter has come home from college for Easter weekend, and is staying with me last night and tomorrow. My heart is full!

I am enjoying the increased birdsong too.

D2’s surrogate lives far away in Florida. The clinic is in Las Vegas, Nevada; so she will fly there to be with her surrogate during the transfer procedure.

No wonder your granddaughter needed help with buying & planting flowers, Ginger!

I love it that you & Mr. D took the time to enjoy your property together, Dill.

I agree: let’s all have a day of freedom & calm!

[Ginger999]

ABC, all my family lives close by. It's fantastic but keeps me a little too busy sometimes. Going to gdaughter's to watch the littles while she works today. This might be her last day for awhile. Fingers crossed! The 5th wheel is still here. I'll probably consign it with camping world.

Slo, enjoy your visit with young daughter. What is she studying?

Dill, your place sounds lovely. Post a pic, if you wouldn't mind.

Jude, are you all settled back in?

Better get going. Let's all have a great and easy day of freedom.
