I have had to spend more time in bed lately due to some skin issues. Most paralyzed people in general have pressure sores from time to time. Something as simple as a wrinkle in your jeans can cause a skin irritation that turns into a wound. I will always have wound issues from time to time as my doctor told me years ago. It is frustrating to me but something I just have to deal with and try to work around. I have been spending a lot of time in bed and it seems to be helping. I am trying to heal as much as I can before flying to visit my family in Alabama on May 14th for two weeks.
I have enjoying sewing with a little handheld sewing machine. I have crocheted a little but just have not really been extremely crafty lately. I do not know why. I have a lot of ideas in my head but just have not been working much on anything besides thinking of ideas and then putting off doing them. I am sure my inspiration will come back and I will be back at it soon. One takes spells with these things sometimes.
Armando got me a netbook and I love it! It is portable and so I have decided to devote a little time each week to blogging again.
The patio garden has done well so far. The petunias are doing fine except for a few snail bitten leaves. The snail seems happy in the soil so I cannot bring myself to relocate it. Let it live and be happy and if it takes a few of the leaves for feasting that is okay.
The only seeds that are doing well out of the ones I planted are the basil and parsley. I keep watering the catnip and the rosemary but I have only seen a few sprouts come up then they seem to die off. I am happy with the petunias, parsley, and basil though. I will continue watering the catnip and rosemary in case it decides to show itself one day! There are so many mosquitoes this time of year. I have to put my all natural mosquito spray on just to water my plants every day or I will get eat up! I keep forgetting to buy citronella candles.
There were tornadoes in Alabama last night. My Aunt and Uncle had a lot of damage but they are okay thank goodness! They had been working so hard on their land and getting ready for a family gathering on May 22nd but today they could not even get out of their driveway, they had no power and their water lines got damaged too. I am glad that my Dad and other family all went over today and started helping them clear the trees and working with chainsaws.

Soory to hear about your Aunt. These tornadoes are very bad this year. I hope the worst is over with all these storms.
