I thought my title would maybe be enticing. Okay, maybe minus the weeping wounds. I couldn't think of a catchy title. That's all I've got today. Those 5 items have consumed my life this week.

I would like to make a loud shout-out to my sister Lisa, who took her CFA exam yesterday. She has studied extremely diligently and has had to work with a CRAZY schedule for the past 5 months. And now she's done with a bigstepping-stone mountain in her carreer!! I am so proud of you, Lisa! You are awesome!!
Hot sun
- This morning when I was working in the garden at 7 am...it was already 87 degrees.
- My car thermometer also read 91 degrees F @ 8 pm while I was leaving work last night.(sun was down, too)
- My flowers are really angry. They are currently revolting.
- Tomatoes like the hot sun. As do my very voluptuous summer squash plants.
- My grass is pist off.
- Abby is also not happy with this heat. 100+ degrees is only okay if you're in a lake...or perhaps a pool.
- I came home to quite a treat last night. Our grocery store had a sale on Bison meat.
- He looked up a recipe for "Gluten Free Bison Burgers". Which warmed my heart in more ways than one
- They had: gouda cheese, wild rice, bison meat, garlic, spices....served with a garnish of this special BBQ mayo - on a bed of spinach.
- Yum. I would share a more detailed recipe..but I didn't make it ;)
- I realized that I have spent more time this week wrapping this yucky, cellulitis, weeping, leg wound this week than I spent with my husband.
- I had the same 4 patients for four 13 hour shifts in a row.
- You know how you sometimes get really sick of spending too much time with the same person? Yeahhhh..............
- I'm excited to be hanging out with my husband at 6 pm tonight...and NOT wrapping a leg with kerlix
- Speaking of wounds...since I've gone gluten free..............My leg rashes are gone! (Now I just have white scars..which will heal I hope)
- Luna GF protein bars have been my God-sent this week to give me energy. I am surprisingly impressed with them. Or maybe I just get so hungry that anything would taste good at that point.
- I have become a total protein junky in the past few weeks. Hard boiled eggs & protein shakes have been my F.O.C. (food of choice)
- I've been doing a lot of running around my house/neighborhood lately, and because of that - I have to run on the "non-existent-shoulder" of the road. Which means I've been running in rocks & sand.
- This causes one's calves to burn like a scorched marshmallow on a stick.
- I use marshmallow, b/c that's how my legs feel afterwards.

Eeeks, that wound sound horrid.
that was so sweet of Ryan to make such a delicious meal for you! There are few things better than having a home cooked meal ready for you after a long day of work!
And I'm glad you finally got to spend time with your husband!!
How did you get the leg wound? It sounds nasty! It's supposed to get to 90 tomorrow so I can commisurate with you, although it will be much more humid here that AZ! Whine, whine, whine, huh? We shouldn't say a word of complaint after all the cold temps we've had!
I am glad you are experiencing improved health. Going gluten free is a challenge at first, isn't it?
Stay cool. We finally will have some weather this week warm enough for flowers!
