When I saw this I thought, if a fox could stop and smell the flowers, how much more so should we stop and appreciate the many gifts Jehovah has given us.
  
 This morning, brrrrrrrrrrr.  it was only 63 in the house, but I don't handle cold.  So we had to get a fire going this morning.  A few years ago 63 degrees would have been fine, but this year I have noticed I am cold so much more.  I haven't been able to handle being real cold, but now even when it is 70 in the house, I have to get socks and a sweater.  That is just crazy to me.  I almost always have to wear gloves now.  Earlier this year, I bought a pair of light weight gloves, for the "in between" seasons.  I am really shocked just how much I wear them.  Like when we went down to the auction, it 73-75, and I wore them almost the whole day.  Boy my hands hurt today....  But then it must have to do with how bad my hands are getting, and my feet too.  It is crazy, I have worn socks more this summer then in my whole life. OK< not whle life, cause while in school, I had to wear them every day, but the moment I got home, the socks came off.  Actually, I don't normally put socks on until about December or January, and I don't wear them every day.  Now I have them on a lot, cause my feet hurt so bad from being cold.  Even when it isn't cold out, my feet hurt so bad, I wear them.  My arms have been going numb on me too, pretty much every day.  But I knew this was going to be happening, so it isn't any big surprise.  

I might go with EO up town, he has a doc apt.  If I don't go, I will have one of the kids go with him.  It depends on if I can get my pain under control.  I ran a fever last night and my lymph nodes are sooooo swollen under my arms.  The pain just makes my eyes roll in back of my head.  It is also in my hip, so IDK if I can handle going.  Most likely not, but if EO wants me to go with, I will.  I will leave it up to him.

Steph had to work late, so EO had to go by himself to get hay.  EO is super happy with the quality of the hay.  We almost were going to wait to call about the hay until we got back, it was a good thing we called when we did.  I went on line and saw the guy had just posted his ad for hay.  EO called right away and set up the deal.  Yesterday when EO got there, the guy said he had 10 people call about half an hour after we called.  EO then set up a deal, to put us on the list for next year.  We will call him in the spring.  So glad we got that taken care of.  So anyways, after EO got home, we were going to unload, but EO said he would rather wait until the morning.  Which Colton can't cause he worked last night and is now sleeping, and Steph is at work, so Lauren and I will try to help him... somewhat, well I will make an appearance, and try to do what I can to help him.  He thinks he might be able to handle it, but if I can straighten or arrange or help him get them off the truck, IDK what I can do, but I will try.  

The fire feels so good.  It is taking the edge off my pain.  :)
