March - Happy St. Pats in advance
I don't think any one reads this, but I'm writing it anyway--its kinda interesting to see who checks !
Today Wednesday the 5th of March - I went to Dr. Office to get a reading of my bone density test that I had done last week. I do have osteoporosis, but it is average for my age and frame. I am reminding my daughters and my grand daughters to be sure they are getting their quota of calcium==in their 20's 40's and 50's. Its very important, and going into your 70's you won't have to worry about bone loss and fractured hips. And maybe not even have to take Fosamax or Bonevia or any of those things. Also be advised that Calcium needs to have at least 400 units of Vitamin D in it to be truly effective. Vitamin D helps in absorption of the calcium. I got a blood test today to make sure I have enough Vitamine D. I'll let you know on that. Did you know that you can get your quota of Vitamin D by 15 minute exposure to the sun light ever day? Course Winter makes that difficult but its a good thought for summer - just don't sun burn your self! Enough Medical lectureing. I'm fine, yesterday I worked at the church, and in afternoon we went over and hauled some more limbs to the curb. A little bit every day (that it is nice weather) we will get it all out yet. MWC has set a deadline of Mar. 16. so must do a little every day. Had a nice little trip to Tulsa last week, visited with some very nice friends. I drove us home....got lost in Sapulpa of all places, but Clay finally figured out where in the heck I was, and got us back on track......I was chagrined that I could get all the way thru Tulsa, and then get lost trying to get on the Turnpike in Sapulpa! Oh well, makes a good story anyway!
My daffodils are up, and about to bloom and today I found the first purple crocus! WOW (they have all been yellow ) Enough of my meanderings - surprise me and tell me you read this!

glad to know your flowers are good! I have found several white crocus too, and a couple of purples. Most are yellow tho - I check almost every day (if its not 20 below), The daffys in the most sun are the ones ready to burst forth. We worked at Clay's the two nice days, and got a lot done. He has daffys blooming!
