Well...legs are better. But other things are worse. Hubby has had a bad time the last 3 nights...neither of us has had sleep. Bad dreams and hallucinations....also they said take him off the blood pressure meds to see if the swelling in legs and feet goes down and check him and make sure it stays below 140/90...well tonight...... he has acted zoned out all day so I just took his blood pressure and it is 181/108....mercy....just can't seem to win...contacted doctor....and yes our blood pressure machine was cinchonized to the doctors...so it should be pretty accurate...

Removing and replacing our old pathway

 We moved into our home about 15 years ago at that time we decided to place a walkway down through the yard to a firepit.  Our family loves to sit around the backyard fire and roast hotdogs and marshmallows.  We haven't done much to the walkway except spray it once in a while with weed kill but today we decided it was time to remove and repair.  So we began to dig out the bricks..it was amazing how some were buried and some were broken.  They all were beginning to sink down deeper and deeper. There was a lot of moss that had even grown over the top of them.  But hubby and I worked together and got them all dug up.  The pathway went from the deck to the firepit ring.  All of these bricks have been recycled we would watch for free ones.  Sometimes just driving down the road there would be bricks with a sign take all you want.  So some of these bricks have different says on them.  We also enjoy using our dutch ovens....

I hide some spray paint its the kind that will change a object into a mirror...he found it and sprayed it on lumber in the yard. Mercy...drives me crazy. Just saying....I told him we are going to Nampa on Thursday...to see the doctor. He got really mad that night at me b...
