This is what is new at Fabulous Fifties, finally finished antibiotics for the pneumonia. However the next day, a tooth, really it is a crown started hurting, had to have a root canal on that to the tune of a small fortune. So on antibiotics again, go next week for a follow-up on the pneumonia.
So that is an update on me.
Dear daughter no. 3 leaves tomorrow on a plane for Austria, she will be teaching 5&6 grades for 1 1/2 to 2 yrs. So it will be a bitter sweet day tomorrow.I am excited for her, think it is a great opportunity.
Also my classes started this week, I am excited to start back and be on some kind of schedule!! Hope I can keep up, since i will be out 2 days the 2nd week for vacation...
Nothing ever materialized on selling the house, so we continue to enjoy it and also declutter.
Hope all my blogger friends are enjoying the summer. I check up on you all almost every night!!

Summer Heat
Well, summertime has come with a bang!! Hope everyone has some way of staying cool. I thank God and my sweet husband for air-conditioning.
Think I mentioned our Church camp in my last post. Last week was jr. camp and was great, we had about 35 boys and girls attend every day. I was excited to be able to help in the kitchen last week, believe it or not I did make it thru the week, everyone thought I was just going to be a puddle by the end of each day, I sweat so much, but I made it Thru. (Did i mention I do not do heat and humid weather very well?)
Friday afternoon, I came home showered and rested(slept ) for a few hours, woke up very tired and with a sore throat. Saturday morning up and My darling husband and I cleaned the whole house, still not feeling well, our weekend was full so did what I had to do, buyers were coming to look at the house a 2nd time, so yard, house, everything had to be in tip-top shape.
I had scheduled massages for us during the time we needed to be away from the house, also all the kids were coming to the house that night for fathers day and Husbands birthday..So off we went...By this time, I was not thinking clearing thinking I was tired and after the massage, my body felt like someone had run over me with a truck!!!! On to the grocery store then home, The kids came and pretty much brought stuff and got my stuff put out. I was no help and finally realized, I was running a fever. Needless to say, I did not get to work at camp this week. I hear that all is going well there.
I went to the Dr. on Monday because of a cough and it was driving me crazy and also my husband, he was so sweet about it. I have pneumonia, never have I been this sick and had no clue that I had that. Everyday getting better. This may be too much information but one things that is not enjoyable about the fabulous fifties is every time I cough I pee my pants, what an experience. I am getting use out of the package of depends I bought for my Mother-in-law before she died a year and a half ago. Glad I did not toss them....So please if your young don't make fun of them, they may come in handy if you are coughing 1000 times in a day in your fifties.. Love ya

Summer Time
Summer is here now. I was the last to get out of school for the summer,here at our house. I think I will get an A in both classes that I took. That is a very accomplished feeling for a Fabulous Fifties :)
Life is good. No crisis or challenges going on at this moment (as far as I know) so I am thankful. No one knows what bumps in the road we might hit tomorrow. On one of the the boards, I am on some one wrote something like Be nice to everyone because everyone is facing some kinda of battle. Not the exact words but that jumped out at me. Guess I better go back and write it down right.
Tomorrow is the first week of our Church's day Camp, We are so excited!! land was donated about 3 years ago and little by little it has come about. With a lot of work from many but the number one person would be my wonderful husband. God gave him the gift of having a vision of what something could be and the ability of being able to get it accomplished. So tomorrow starts Jr. day camp then the next week teen. There are many others that God has used also to help. Another person, God sent 1 1/2 years ago to be out associate pastor, He worked for 6 yrs, in a camp ministry, so Gods timing is perfect, Some of the fun things there 2 large lakes, swimming, fishing, boating, climbing wall and best of all a zip-line from a tower to the water . I will be working in the kitchen serving lunch!!

Memorial Day
Hope everyone had a great day! We did see 5 of the 6 children so that was good. Also the 3 special grandchilden which is always a treat. It has been nice having 3 of the kids back at home for the last few weeks. I am not even stressing about the house, not always being straightened up. And just doing what i need to do. Did notice going to grocery store more often and grocery money not lasting as long.
Today taking son to graduation practice and making a run to Sam's will be making a couple of runs this week, as preparing for a big Graduation celebration on Saturday night.
grandaughter also graduates from kindergarten wed. another big day.
Daughter 21 is home from 4 years at college and trying to declutter, clean out, give away and pack up. She will be leaving to go to Austria to teach at a christian school there for a year or 2. She will be leaving around the first or 2nd week in July. We are still hoping to sell the house soon, so she is also kinda packing up her room.
I have a couple more week before my school quarter is over, have really enjoyed it.
Leigh thanks for visiting. I check you blog every night. Still wish you would share some of your writting talent with me . Jess thanks for stopping by, also Jaye still checking on you. You Go girl!! Talk with you all later!!
