Today was another day at the doctor’s trying to figure out why I am having certain issues that are usually associated with ladies getting older, probably nothing to be scared about, more of an annoyance than anything else really. It is always better to keep on top of these things just in case, you never know. I have had many health concerns over the years and the best thing to do is to stay ahead of anything so that it doesn’t snowball into something more complicated.

Anyhow, the procedure was relatively painless and the doctor was nice and reassuring so all I need to do is put everything out of my mind until the fourteenth when I get to go back and find out what game plan the good doctor has mapped out for me and then we shall see what we shall see.

Meanwhile, all that I ever need to do to relax my mind and ease my tension is a small walk in the back yard to see what colors are peeking out and today I was pleasantly surprised by the peonies first bloom to name just one. So bear with me through the gallery of photos of my budding roses, peonies, dianthus and whatever other color called out to me.

Switcherooooooo

If you could switch blogs with any blogger for a week, with whom would you switch and why?

Are you crazy? I wouldn't ever switch with another blogger for any amount of time. I am not saying that my blog is all that special or that I wouldn't trust anyone with my blog. I would welcome many of my blogger friends if they wanted to pitch hit for me.

I, on the other hand, would feel too stressed to take on the responsibility of caring for and maintaining the integrity of my fellow bloggers sites. I feel that a blog is very personal and I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it for anyone else. What I do with my blog is so much less pressure because it's mine. I wouldn't want to let down anyone by not doing justice to the blogger whom I would be switching with, I just would not be happy.

I suppose that I don't have the confidence necessary yet to feel comfortable taking on anyone else's creative outlet. That is what blogging is to me, a creative outlet and I know that there are so many more creative people out there that do seriously great things with their blog and I am pretty sure that I wouldn't live up to their expectations. So I will stay here minding the store, providing my friends with my train of thought, my pictures and my opinions; just little ole me.
