Bug - PT - A Rainy Night In Georgia

~

Last evening Frank asked me if I had placed a dead cicada on the window sill in the enclosed carport. I had not. I asked him to remind me to take some pictures of it tomorrow for Friday's Shoot-Out.

This was his way of reminding me. He wrote this on the note board for me see.



One of the reasons I love him... his sense of humor. :-D

So this morning I took pictures. They did not turn out as well as I had hoped. It seems impossible to get a good photo of the wings without getting a shot of the dead creature's butt. I think I will post what I came up with on Friday... but don't be too disappointed if the photo doesn't make the final cut.

I had physical therapy today. I said the wrong name last time... it wasn't Chip, but Chris who was my physical therapist. I can't figure where I pulled the name Chip from. :-) Today I had Chad as my physical therapist. I'm sure I have his name correct... maybe.

More exercises. Who would think three, two and even one pound weights would feel so heavy! I rolled a ball up the wall and did the bike again. This time for a lot longer. Four minutes forward and 4 four minutes backward. The backward part is hard! I made it through it though. I go back Thursday.

Afterward we did a little shopping at Sam's Club and got rained upon on the way back to the car.

It rained yesterday and overnight too. It reminded me of the song A Rainy Night In Georgia by Brook Benton. Many other artist have had hits with the song, but Brook Benton's voice is the one that I relate to the song.

  1. That is great! He is awesome. Glad to here you are progressing well. It took years for me to life a gallon of milk with my back problems. Enjoy you day. I got the lens covers today so far they don't work with the 70-300 mm lens. I may need a 55 mm. The detailed did not tell me what they are to be used on.

  4. Your husband is VERY funny! I can tell that I would like him!

    Yes, it is raining here as well, but we desperately need it. Everything is looking quite brown.

    We take our strength for granted, don't we. Then when we don't have it, we realize how much we miss it. Hope you are back to normal soon!

  7. I think of Ray Charles with this song, LOL! I wonder could you pit the bug on a pin like you do when you collect butterflies? Maybe that would get a better shot. It stormed here last night.

    Sorry you got rained upon but we do need that rain so bad. We've been getting some too and it's helped keep the tempertures down to bareable. Continued good luck with P/T.

  13. I'm amazed at the toll cancer takes in physical fitness. I was crossing the road the other day had had to run a cars length when the light changes and discovered how weak and wobbly my legs had become.

    Looking forward to those butt pictures.

  15. What a nice blog you have. We have a lot in common with the Army deal and all and of course, living in Georgia! Love a good sense of humor like you and your hubby have!

    Would love that rip to Colorado but Michael could never handle being up that high!

    blessings,
