I've been taking advantage of the yucky weather to get some more work done on my soon to be daughter-in-laws family tree. I get so caught up in it, I want to share it with her right away. I forget that not all people get so excited about genealogy. Oh, well. So our fun out here has been a small family (herd) of deer that eat in our yard twice a day. On the down side of things, I have been having a hard time healthwise. While I hope this next surgery will help, it's causing a lot of anxiety in me, and Mike is having a real hard time accepting the fact that I will be alright. We will get through this, I have faith that God is with me and will stay with me through it all. Enough said.

Moose came home! I lectured the little guy about scaring mama, but only as a cat can, he only wanted the food dish!

What a day! Went to Siren with Kenna, Sarah, and her mom Barb to find dresses for the wedding. Both Barb and I found one. I so didn't want to look like a "matron". And I will not! Beautiful sparkles on the top, little jacket, and black draped skirt. I told Sarah that I may start crying now, and not stop until September10th!  Definitely had a better day today than yesterday. Mike and I took his mom to Eau Claire for her eye appointment, and I ended up with both a migraine and a horrible Chiari headache. I am so ready for this surgery to hopefully alleviate some of the daily pain. Plans are made to stay at Kathy's House in Milwaukee and trying to figure out what to do with the dogs. Shadow just might have to stay at a kennel, which makes me nervous. He is such a people dog and hates being alone. Either we are with him or Hazel and he are together. Uff da! What to do! And to top that, my Moose is missing! He got out the other night, and we cannot find him anywhere! I hope he is hiding nearby and will come home soon. This weather tonight will scare him. Mike called the neighbor to let them know to watch for him. They lost their cat last fall, so they feel our pain.
