Grandson's birthday

Tammy's Landon just had his 16th birthday and got a car! It's not new, but he was really excited.
We didn't get to go, just too far (7 hours) and I'm having a lot of back pain.
But so far the injections I got in my neck seem to be helping. Growing old is a pain, but still have much to praise God for.
We're enjoying fresh okra from the garden every day. We got a few potatoes, but the tomatoes didn't do well at all.
Hope your Saturday is going well?

@1creekgirl Hopefully when the cooler weather arrives next month, it will bring you more consistent good days that are pain-free.

@Juliaacv I'm really dreading talking to a spine surgeon about possible surgery.

@1creekgirl This is what EU authorities think, there are enough car accidents not to lower the minimum age to drive.

That's interesting, but I think 18 is a better age for driving.

Happy 16th Birthday to Landon.
Fresh okra sounds nice …I have seen it in the shops but never used it.

How exciting to turn 16 and get a car! I'm so sorry about your back pain. I"m glad the neck injections are helping. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Cousin #3 is coming to help me tomorrow.

@1creekgirl Me too. In addition to doing the decluttering and downsizing, there is a ton of my husband's clothes to be donated.

It's a big day for young people when they get their first car.
