Backyard Trumpet Vine 2017


Hopefully it will continue growing down the other side of the trellis.  We should have planted one on both sides so they could meet in the center.


Here is a seed pod.

    I like how you have this one growing, like you said planting one on the other side would definitely work.

    That's a beautiful flower and trellis! I agree that another one on the other side would be wonderful.

    My mother told me that fairies used the trumpets to make music for their midnight dancing.

    I can certainly see where this beautiful flower gets its name from.

I Did It Again!

I seem to fall every six months or so.  I'm hesitant to use a cane because it makes me feel so old.  But it's much better than losing my balance.  Maybe I can find a cane that looks good and not make me feel frail. Luckily it happened just as I got to the treatment center in the hospital.  A man and his daughter stopped and left their car to help me.  My glasses and cell phone were in the street. The nurses at the IVIG infusion area took me to the emergency room where a CT scan showed no broken skull where I landed on the back of my head.  My blood work was good. My IVIG treatment was rescheduled for tomorrow.  No luck having it cancelled for this month!

Chicken Liver

I'm eating chicken liver because it's  is a good source of iron, for my low blood iron levels.  Iron supplements cause intestinal irritation for me so I can't take them.  Even Flintstones chewable tablets are too much for me. Besides, I like the way chicken liver tastes. "Ingredients: 4 chicken livers (remove the tough tendons if you’re finicky) 1 tablespoon olive oil Kosher salt  Cook the chicken livers: Heat the oil in a small fry pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the livers and sprinkle with a three finger pinch of salt. Cook until well browned on the bottom, about three minutes. Flip the livers, an cook until well browned on the second side and the pink color is entirely gone in the middle, about three more minutes. If the livers are browning too quickly, turn off the heat and let them finish cooking in the residual heat of the pan. Remove from the pan and  serve." Quoted from Dad Cooks Dinner bog. I found this "rec...

Another Seizure

My wife told me that I had a seizure the other night. As usual I have completely no memory of it. I slept most of the next day. Otherwise I'm completely fine.  I'm glad she didn't call for help. She must be used to it by now. When it happened she was very upset. I heard her call my name and saw her fuss. I asked her what was the matter. She left the room for a moment. At the time I was worried about what was happening. What could be wrong with her? I had no idea it was me who was having a seizure.  I see a neurologist for this and am on medication. I'm lucky I don't have a much worse disease.
