Ugh, didn't get anything of significance done outside today. However, I did get some things taken care of. Had to get my truck inspected. Done. Needed to pick up grain. Done. Needed shavings. Done. Needed a few things from the grocery store. Done. We have to get out again on Friday for what is probably the last follow-up with the neurosurgeon. He's still doing well after his last adjustment, so I don't predict anything else with this surgeon unless DH decides to go through with the spinal decompression. Sigh...
I will be prying all goes well at the dr.

@The Porch - thanks!

It has been a beautiful day so I took advantage and was outside nearly all day. We've got the first hard freeze of the winter headed our way. Needed to get some preps taken care of. So far- so good. Just hope I'm not forgetting anything!

Shouldn't have any babies due until the end of the month so not worried about that right now. Doesn't mean we won't have another round of freezes when they are due, but I'll worry about that if/when I need to.

Doc appt in the morning and PT in the afternoon so I won't get much else done. Maybe get some chili started in the crock pot at some point.

Doc appt. went well. Doc is really pleased with DH's progress! He actually forgot his cane and had to walk with just my hand on his arm. That's pretty darn good considering that he was mostly in a wheelchair several months ago! Next follow up in 3 months. PT continues and he's doing well with that also. Now, he just needs more strength training and endurance.

Didn't really have time for cold weather preps today, but I'll resume tomorrow. Not a whole lot left to do so I can easily get it finished before the badness gets here. Speaking of the badness - we're predicted to get snow! Real, white, cold, wet snow. Forecast is for 4 - 6 inches in the Houston area. Yikes! Not sure if I'm excited about it or dreading it, lol. All I really know is that there'll be a whole lot of extra work around here for a while.
