So glad you had Henry there to comfort you and hug you. <br /><br />Believe it or not, we used to have tons of Hollyhocks that grew in the alley behind my home when I grew up. I thought they were gorgeous but my mother called them a horrible weed. lol I grow those horrible weeds now and LOVE them. I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder. That one you took the picture of is gorgeous and I love the color.<br /><br />Blessings - Juliemoreofhimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190479769509110019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-67727659673336033862016-07-01T14:41:54.652-05:002016-07-01T14:41:54.652-05:00I'm so sorry to read about your friend, Vickie...I'm so sorry to read about your friend, Vickie, but just think of all the happiness you and Henry brought Joyce over the past couple of years.

I too am still hopeful that you will be completely rid of these headaches. Sorry to hear about your friend. I think it is wonderful the work you and Henry do. I'm sure it brightens their day to receive a visit from the two of you. I would love to be able to grow gorgeous hollyhocks like yours - unfortunately I just don't have any luck with them.

Just out of interest - how much are varifocals/progressives? I have minus 10 eyesight and paid £300 for one pair of varifocals with thinner lenses and one pair of sunglasses with single vision non-thinner lenses this year. The frames for the second pair were free (or that would have been another £85). I considered that a reasonable price as they will last at least two years and I'm a danger to myself without them!Jo who can't think of a clever nicknamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02663450738390351663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-26869107529747711722016-06-29T08:30:19.364-05:002016-06-29T08:30:19.364-05:00OH sweet friend, I am so sorry to hear of the pass...OH sweet friend, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your friend.

So sorry to hear about your sweet friend. My husband and I took our Giant Schnauzer, Bella, to nursing homes, hospices, etc., for two years to visit patients. We, too, became attached to several special people. When they passed, we shed tears for their loss. I know it's difficult, but I know you and Henry brightened her days.<br />HugsKimMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01591575014835003465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-71106754882653477422016-06-29T03:31:47.942-05:002016-06-29T03:31:47.942-05:00Very good news about your eye check up Vickie.

I have many of them, being a Eucharistic minister to the sick, I too (like you) meet many people that are in their last stages of life. I have formed very tight relationships with many of them. Yesterday we buried one that I had visited and carried the Eucharist to for the past year. Sad. But, also a wonderful thing too because I know that they will be held in the arms of their savior. <br />Pray for you still about your pain issues and was just swinging in from working all day today to see how you are.
