Christmas was quiet here and warm. Of course we watched the Saints play on New Year's
and just hoped they would make the Superbowl. But they didn't. Maybe next year.
My sister Carole came out for my birthday in January and we had a good visit. She had been
working very hard at work, so it was a good break for her. I always enjoy getting together with her.
We can both just let everything go and have a good time. We gambled at most the Casino's, but it wasn't lucky for either of us...Randy took us on a very nice day trip to Houma House Plantation in Louisiana. The grounds were just beautiful with gardens in bloom. It is about 2 hours from here, but it was worth the drive.
Kristin had her birthday on the 1st of February and her brother, Bobby had his on the 17th. One year older and I am getting on too. Praise Social Security...
February went fast and warm again. Randy worked on his garden, getting it ready for more planting.
March 1st or so he planted more lettuce, 3 different kinds and some parsley, which we are still waiting to come up.
We bought our Creole tomatoes and re-potted them to larger container's. Also bought some Early Girl's.
We will leave them in the house until it warm's up a little more.
Randy has played golf almost every Friday and Sunday. He only had a couple day's that the weather wasn't good.
I twisted my foot and it kept me housebound for a week or so. It is better now and it doesn't hurt so bad.
On February 29th, my ex husband, Bob Brodie had a bad accident in Nashville where he lives. He broke his arm and ribs. It left his stomach a mess from the seat-belt, So far he has had 2 surgeries. He is still in step down
critical condition. They have to watch him closely. My son, Bobby, has hardly left his side. His sister, Kristin and Bob's sister, Margaret, both flew there to be with him also.
Kristin flew there Friday and had to return to her family on Sunday, but Margaret stayed a couple extra days. Bobby really needed the support from both of them as well as Bob. They were all there through the most critical time.
Apparently Bob, didn't feel well coming home from the store.He pulled over and said, "I can do this, it's only another block and a half". Well he must have blacked out for a split second and he ended up crashing into a tree. The ambulance came and the rest is history. I will try to keep you updated when I can.
Other than that Randy and I are fine. Randy is getting some work and I am keeping busy with my Genealogy
and playing some games. Seems to take all day between Facebook, phone calls and doing meals 3 times a day. 'Til next time our best to everyone.
Mississippi Sue and Randy
