Good Morning!!!
Welcome back to OakHaven!!
I do hope that this post  finds yall in good health.  I am fine, on this day, and the days back in September!  We had a death in Joe's family.  His sister died.  It was not a surprise, as she neglected
her diabetes and other serious health issues(kidneys-dialysis for 1 more).  She has gone downhill for years.  Yes, she is in a better world.  Joe is fine.  Saddened only by his sister's lack of taking care of herself, in well over 12 years.  We are surprised that she lived as long as she did!!  May she be at peace now.....
We are still in the grip of hot weather.  We have gotten much needed rain, thank God, all summer!
Not a complaint from me!!!  LOL!  The rains cooled the heat, so, all in all, it was livable!     ;)
All my health issues are in compliance with my meds.  All doctors are happy with my results this summer.  Joe just has one test results* to go back for.  His pain in his ribs.  I do hope that they know what causes him pain and can fix it.  This is the last "issue" unresolved.  He has switched to my #1 doctor that sets up needed works he doesn't do.  He has gone through this with other "docs"(snicker..snicker  :)  Never working on the issue at hand, only to test their* works, to build a page on him.....duh.......that is why I made him see my doc....he doesn't play around!
There is a sting in my hands, still.  I just stitch, play my games, design, make bracelets out of beads, to fill my days now. I am not griping...at all...LOL!!!
As you can see my typing messages are longer now.....   ;)   
Which leads me to my new post on this day!!!!!!    C*H*A*R*T*S!!!!  How does this first one in the new month affect you??
