Alcove beind the entertainment center in the family room - a burgandy terra cotta

Guest bedroom - put up chair rail (yes, I have a compound miter saw!) I love tools, and painted a deepish blue under the rail

Also painted the furniture white for the above bedroom. It was black - had to sand it, prime it and put 2-3 coats on each piece.

Painted the guest bath pink from the floor up to the counter height. Then put a pink border all around at counter height.

Morning all, a little early. My Husband is still in ICU, Trauma Unit. The OT came in and showed him how to get out of bed, which was very painful and he hollered, but he has to be able to walk to the bathroom and back before he can go to a regular room, third night there. I feel good about him because they are so well trained. They took a drain tube out and his NG tube out of his nose, more better. They changed his stoma for the colostomy and removed the bar they had left in the hole to keep the intestine in place until they knew for sure it would stay. They haven't done anything to the Urostomy bag yet. He is having a hard time keeping his oxygen level up. They got him up just before I left and had him walk down the hall and back and he was in a chair for two hours. He has to use that breathing exercise thing every 20 minutes when he is awake. They had him trying to cough hard to get any congestion up. He sure doesn't need to get pneumonia.

He can have clear liquids slowly at first. He could have to wait another four days before he gets solid food.

I will try to update every day, Hugss, Mama Gator

God Bless them all for the sacrifices they make for us every day. One of my Husbands visiting students is in the Air Force. Her specialty will be an Ostomy nurse. There is a real need for this with the devastating injuries our Guys are suffering now. She observed the care for his two bag changes. She was very polite and sweet, and remembered to thank him for letting her observe the procedure.

Morning all Pubsters.

We had an outing yesterday to see the Elk herd in the Smoky Mountain National Park. The started a herd of about 25 10 years ago or so, there are now 125 including 17 youngsters. They are magnificent animals.

Took lots of pictures. I know, I took lots in Maine to and haven't done anything with them. However we have a Photoshop expert staying with us this week and he started with the basics, organizing our files and new downloads. They are all on the new iMac and using Time Machine to back up.

Some lessons in how to open the pictures in camera raw and accomplish most of what I want to do right there. So when they are gone, and I have finally filed my income tax I am tackling my pictures in reverse order.

Yesterday, then Maine then go from there.

13 days to kickoff.
