Trying to keep cool on August 29th even though its almost 100 degrees. Noticed something in the garden today....CORN growing !!! I think it was part of the birdseed (or bird droppings?) . I picked it, shuck it and sure enough it was an actual ear of corn.....tiny, but hey...Don't think I'll cook it.

Also found a huge mushroom...kinda pretty but I think its poisonous.

Speaking of poison, I continue to withdraw (slowly) from the opioids (and surgery discomfort) with the aid of ACUPUNCTURE (amazing) and physical therapy. And Parkinsons exercise classes.
I still don't have an appetite (kinda yea !!), some nausea and some random sweating attacks. No longer drink coffee in the morning (yuck) or drink wine in the evening...no taste for it. (yet)

I am ready and waiting for cooler weather , the Holidays (Jewish) and maybe maybe getting back to "my normal". 
See ya'll soon.

Another 2 months  (or so) has gone by since I last sat down to write. I think it is because every time I think about writing it is to complain or moan or whimper. On any given day I feel and look like these pictures.They pretty much sum up this summer. Right now I am feeling pretty good (blue glasses) except for the Oxycontin withdrawal (brown glasses) I am currently going through
Thanks to all family and friends for support these
trying months. I owe you. (cookies, babysitting, Redskin tickets.....just name it !)
Will blog again soon 
As always
Whatever
