Plans changed - did not go to the south and Tyre - daughter and I did things closer to home. Saw a castle in ruins that were once used by Phoenicians, Romans and Crusaders. Saw old wells and oil press and wine making areas carves into stone. We saw some old churches and tried to see one on the top of a mountain but would have had to scramble up to see it and were told not much was up there so left. No place to park in Byblos and Batroun so headed home.
Made mulberry jam/syrup yesterday and hubby wants soup and pickles and something made with the apples but I am kind of tired and unsure whether or not I have the ingredients we need. Will have to check.

Good morning. Well, I didn't get to see how my water system was working yesterday. It would have helped if I'd have actually turned on the water. The timer worked, but I forgot to turn on the spigot that let the water run through the timer. I have it set to water every other day, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to see whether it is working properly. I'm sure it will be.
I did get my basil planted and my little evergreen tree planted in a pot. I think when I go into town Saturday that I'm going to see if I can find a parsley plant at the greenhouse to put in a pot. The herbs in pots I can keep all winter.
On my schedule today will be baking a couple of loaves of bread. One I will take to the neighbor who helped me with my garden fence. I still haven't gotten my laundry done either. Going to work on that today too.
Have a good day, beaches.

Good morning beaches,
Storms in the forecast here. was a good morning to sleep in a bit.
I have to attend a funeral later in the morning. A fellow from our church, his wife was a member of my Women's Club, so the club will try to all be in attendance. I hate going to these things, but guess I will.
I had 2 dr appts yesterday, the hand specialist in the morning & the foot dr in the afternoon. The hand dr said that I have severe arthritis in my hands (a type of arthritis that only effects the hands & feet), he also said that I have the worse case of carpel tunnel that he has ever seen. I think he is the 4th or 5th dr to say that it is the worse they have seen. He didn't suggest more surgery (surprising because he is a surgeon), instead he is sending me into Nashville for some specialized therapy. Since I have had the surgery 3 times already with little to no success, we decided not to try it again. Foot dr says my wound from surgery in Jan. is healing. He says the recovery time from this type of surgery is about a year. (he removed a piece of bone). All & all, not too bad of reports. Nothing new at least. After 25 or more years of dealing with my hand pain, it is nothing new, just worse. This is the price I pay for handling mail for over 30 yrs.
Well, enough of me whining. Hope everyone is having a great hump-day, doing things that you love. Cathy, keep enjoying the DD's visit. Sounds like much fun.

We’re in CO Springs for a few days as we get my military ID renewed. No large base in Denver area. The sun is shining and fingers are crossed no rain today. The hotel had a healthy breakfast buffet so the day is off to a good star. Have a great day with many reasons to smile.
