It's been hot here, too. Yesterday, Morgan and I went out in the morning when it wasn't too bad and watered, etc. I slept wrong a couple of nights ago and messed up my left foot, so should not have gone to exercise on Monday. I am paying for it, now.:-) Doing sit down stuff and will elevate it, later. Found out at the nephrologist's yesterday that I have a kind of anaemia connected with the kidneys. I've got plenty of iron and it's not too troubling, but I did get a certain hormone shot which helps to build red blood cells. The only reason I could get it was the insurance company okayed the thousand dollar price tag. Yikes! The nicest thing were the last words from the doc concerning my kidneys,"You're doing good and you will do better!"

So, while I feel full of energy (had no idea of any anaemia as I have been doing so much and felt good), no exercise class today. We will finish shredding papers and not much else. I hope Morgan's dad gets off fairly early this afternoon. He's a good kid, but this is one time "Mama" would like to send him home early.:-)

I am excited about an indoor plant. It is a huge, rangy thing, a night blooming cactus orchid, Epiphyllum. I've had it for at least 10-15 years and it's never bloomed. You have to get up in the middle of the night to see it, apparently, as it blooms once then closes as soon as the sun comes up. The blooms can get as big as a dinner plate and are supposed to have a wonderful fragrance. Well...mine has TWO small bugs BUDS:-) coming out. Here is a photo of someone else's: CLICKETY. I hope I catch mine when they do open!

Have had two more books requested and sent out.
