It really is therapy for me. Problem is our basement will be finished about the same time. Then will I ever be busy. Gardening and decorating the basement ast the same time. What's a girl to do? Love your beach sign. I just bought my copy of flea market gardens. Going to hunker down and read it from head to toe. My sweet bloggy friend, Carlene from Organized Clutter submitted a photo and was surprised to see that it was in there. I think it's her garden ladder. Check it out when you get a chance. Thanks for sharing with SYC. Hope hubby is doing well. It will take some time to recover.<br />hugs,<br />JannHave a Daily Cup of Mrs. Olsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15446091501170762899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434601505681405514.post-34096537836759532632013-02-12T08:05:48.689-08:002013-02-12T08:05:48.689-08:00You bench looks cozy with the pillows.

Your Sorry to hear about your husband surgery. My hubby had shoulder surgery a little over two years ago and I can tell you that the biggest challenge for him was sleeping with the sling on, clothing issues, and not being able to drive or ride a bike for several months. He was not used to not wearing a t-shirt under his shirts and he was not used to having me dress him for the first couple of weeks. I bought a few cheap shirts at Wal-Mart clearance rack and cut off the sleeve. The physical therapy is so important for a fast recovery. For several months, we spent our time at PT and Dr. appointments. The PT also gave my husband exercises to do at home with a broomstick and those big rubber bands. We have a big yard so that year I mowed the front (sloped) and back yard. I wanted my husband to recover and to not have to go through this surgery again so I would not let him lift beyond the Dr. orders for the entire year, I had my neighbor come over to help me if I needed it because I did not want to hurt myself and then not be able to care for my husband. So many people we met in PT had repeat surgery or had to have the other shoulder repaired, so listen to the Dr. orders. I also made sure I was at all the appointments so that I knew what was going on. Most important you need to make time and take time for you. Get out of the house and do some of the things you love to do. Time goes by so fast I just kept telling myself that God wanted us to slow down and smell the roses. Sorry for the novel, just wanted to be real. <br />Take care . ~Joanie~ <br />Lola and Beahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17982292739596721277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434601505681405514.post-64798528183004412952013-02-10T08:07:55.780-08:002013-02-10T08:07:55.780-08:00Love your sign.

You did a great job. So nice that you were able to spend some time in your garden too. We had a beautiful day in western Washington yesterday also but not quite warm enough for me to be outside. I felt so bad for all those poor people with icy winds and no power. Best wishes to your husband. I'm sure you'll take great care of him.
