A Good Rainy Day

Am sitting in music class with my seven year old thinking that life is really good. I have been able to make nursing home rounds this morning. I love my little older patients. And then got the grey in my hair covered up with lovely caramel highlights. Got the oil changed. Checked in on congress and found that they delayed the SGR cuts I have been dreading. Made homemade beef stroganoff from my own homegrown beef and have it in the crock pot. And now I am enjoying music class with Ella. Life is grand. The only draw back to today is that I did not get to help Brian on he farm but it is raining cats and dogs outside.

Last two Tuesdays I have helped tag calves, helped AI cows, and all sorts of fun stuff on the farm. I even got to drive the tractor. I love helping on our farm. We are getting baby calves ever day now.

I also just got an email from Cup of Joe from soldiers serving in our armed forces all over the world. It's a great program. For a small price you can provide some American coffee to US service men and women. I think its a great idea.

Congress lame duck session is driving me nuts. Tax cuts, estate taxes, food safety bills, and the ever popular SGR fixes. God help our country cause the political people aren't.

Can now blog from phone... yeah

Hey there world. It's been too long. Life has been hectic here in upper middle Tennessee for the McLerran's. So far this year I have had three major surgeries, had two girls sign up for girl scouts, have little man get his tonsils out, and a few other things. Our farm is good. Brian got a grant to use spring water.for the automatic waters on the farm. It's better and cheaper than city water. Ella has made strait a's all year and will soon resume basketball. Brie refuses to play.

We are still dealing Qiu major issues in healthcare. And I for one remain hopeful that congress will keep he current tax cuts, amend or change the God Awful healthcare bill they passed, and fix the SGR. The potential Medicare cuts are already affecting seniors in our area with Doctors refusing to treat Medicare patients. God help us all if they cut Medicare payments by 24%.

Will talk more later now that this is fixed. TTFN... Tata for now...

A good day

Even with all the days I have been out for surgeries this year, Brian and I decided that maybe I should try the Mommy thing once a week. So I am and its great. I still have to fit in appointments but it has been a blast today to eat luch and work cows with Brian.(yes I still think he is cute in coveralls after fourteen years, too.) And now I am off to music class with the oldest.
