Good Fences #139 - Something Is Missing



Welcome - I always seem to be apologizing for not posting much or getting around to visit blogs. - My life lately has been taken up by looking after my mom.  She developed Edema & an Infection in her legs.  The infection is gone now after a 2 week course of Antibiotics which I had to give her every 6 hours.  The Edema is now being treated by a Home Nurse who comes out at least once a week to wrap her legs but I need to be there when she does as my mom doesn't hear real well and depends on me to tell her what people are saying. - So if I don't pop by your blog you'll know that it's because I'm busy.

So now it's time to join Theresa for GOOD FENCES

Here is my fence find for this week.

I spotted this section of fence and gate while out on a walk.  - There seems to be something missing, can you figure out what?


Need a hint?.....



I wonder what happened to that missing piece of fence on the gate.

So that's my find for this week.  -  Please stop by The Run-a-Round Ranch Report to check out the other Good Fences.

Have a great day.

  5. Thinking of you and your mom and hoping this treatment helps.
    That's a sweet capture of the fence - maybe some kids were swinging on the gate and that part broke! We used to love swinging on a gate!

  12. I think, as bloggers, the majority of us understand that there are times when life just gets too hectic to spend much time online. No one is immune, it seems.
    I'm glad to hear the infection is gone. Edema can be a difficult condition. My Grandmother suffered from it, and her legs were always so tired and sore. All my best to you and your Mom. Take care Ida.

  19. Best wishes for your mom's return to wellness . We've all been in a place where for some reason we cant visit other bloggers. Please dont stress about it -- you need to take care of yourself at a time like this. And if you only have a few minutes to blog, its better to write your own post than to visit others -- that way all your blog friends know you're hanging in there. Best wishes.

  31. If it's like my house, the missing part is sitting in a drawer waiting for us to have time to reattach. Hoping it doesn't get lost during the wait. Hope your mom is feeling better soon. Happy Thanksgiving.

  32. Whoops! I wonder if it was due to what my brother did to our old backyard gate... he had a habit of always grabbing the exact same spindle to close the gate. Until I guess eventually the thing just broke off! I like this gate - it is nearly exactly as the one we had to the one in my parents backyard and I can remember all the good memories in the yard beyond.

  34. Yikes! Seems like it would take a lot to knock one of those spikes off of there. You have a town full of great fences. Your mom is lucky to have you so close. I sure hope she's getting better.
