The Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela is a centuries old trek across northern Spain done by following "The Camino de Santiago", the road to Santiago. Before February of 2001 I had not heard of "The Camino" nor of the Pilgrimage. By the end of October of that year I was in Santiago after completing the walk myself. I thought that when I reached Santiago my journey was over but I see now that my journey started way before I got to Spain and still has not ended.

I've Been Away From Blogging For So Long I Forgot What I Do Around Here 2
Second, I was feeling run down so I bought a juicer and started juicing. It has made a big difference in my life and I'm feeling more energized. Green drinks for everyone!

I've Been Away From Blogging For So Long I Forgot What I Do Around Here
It's almost four months since my husband had his knee replacement surgery and he is doing better than expected. In fact, he is doing so well that, when his therapy sessions were over, his physical therapist gave him a certificate praising him for his commitment and for being the best client he (the therapist) had ever worked with. Getting there took a long and stressful three months for the both of us. So, as my husband continued healing and getting even stronger, I spent the last month getting back on track.
First, like Dusty here, I caught up on sleep.

It's National Go Barefoot Day!
![]() |
| From L. Frank Baum's "Ozma of Oz," illustrated by John R. Neill. |
National Go Barefoot Day is observed on June 1. This day is an opportunity to kick off your shoes and run barefoot through the cool grass! More importantly, it is a day to help support a charity that provides millions of underprivileged children all around the world with shoes.

It's Time To Be Rude, Crude, And Socially Unacceptable
Dear Donald Trump,
If money, power, and having what you think are hot women is not enough to quell your fears about the size of your penis, what makes you think dropping "the mother of all bombs" on Afghanistan will do it? You are a sad, sad, man.
Sincerely,
Colleen Shannon

Life With Belle
Took Belle with me today when I went to the Vet to refilled her meds.
Me: "Belle. You want to go for a ride?"
Belle: "Yeah, yeah, put me in the car. Now, now, now! I'm doing my happy dance.....On second thought, I should check to see if there are any bunnies at the side of the house."
Me:"BELLE! COME BACK HERE!"

When It Hasn't Been Your Day, Your Week, Your Month Or Even Your Year
An another long break between blog posts. The last 12 months as been busy with heath matters in our household. In that time period my husband has had three surgeries, all to do with quality of life repairs. The last one, a partial- knee replacement that due to complications turned into a full knee replacement, was two weeks ago so blogging is way down on my list right now. Will be back when my husband becomes more mobile.
