TODAY WE ROLLED WITH IT...COTTAGE STYLE...

Some days the best laid plans just have to wait for another day...
How are you at rolling with it...and "Going with the flow" when things don't go the way you've planned ?
I had a Dentist appt. at 11:00 am today...
Our Car windshield had a crack and was going to get fixed at noon...
followed by numerous errands in the afternoon...

My love wakes up and after we noticed the clear bandage over his port was ballooned up with fluid and blood oozing down his chest...all plans changed...instantly.
I calmped everything off...shut off the pump and off to Grand Rapids for the second day in a row.
I AM THANKFUL FOR...
A dentist who understands...
a calm husband...
good weather to drive in...
a sence of humor...
the words..."Don't worry, there's nothing wrong here we can't fix"...
going back ..Again..tomorrow and have the pack removed...for 10 days...
remembering to grab this "Cottage Style Magazine"...to gaze through

Today...we rolled with it..
Love you all, xoxo~Kathy.
REMEMBER....YOU HAVE UNTIL SUNDAY EVENING ....TO ENTER THE .."GIVEAWAY"
SCROLL DOWN TO THE FEB. 18TH POST.... HUGS.....
