Friday Face OFF

 

 Welcome Back To Friday Face OFF (FFO)

This is the place to show off your faces or your face. Post any type of face from any medium. You can create it, or find it in nature, or even that face in the design of you 
woodwork in your house. 
Human, animal, alien, or monster. 
ANY KIND OF FACE!
 
Ohhh, I am sorry I am late posting this. Mr. M. and I have been in Eugene since 8AM and we just got home about an hour ago. All the doctors wanted to see Mr. M. on the same day. OMG we will never do that again. On top of that it is storming something wicked. Good news, Mr. M. no longer has a foley and his stitches look great. Bad news is that his blood work is worse than when he was in hospital. The nephrologist is hoping in the next few weeks it will balance out. 
As for Halloween/Samhain it's not happening at our house. Like I said it is storming something wicked and I am exhausted. So I turned off the porch light and when I get done with this will be in bed. 
These uhhmmm ladies look half dead. 

Now this is a witches hat.

Well that's it for today. Now it's time to show me our face.

Heartfelt House

 

 Hi Everyone!

While Mr. M. was in hospital I was very fortunate to have a room at the Heartfelt House. It is part of Ronald McDonald house. 
What I understand is that half of the facility is the Ronald McDonald house and it is set up for families. Riverbend Hospital donated a million dollars to build the other half for people like me with no kids. When I say it is 5 star, I do mean 5 star. I didn't want to leave. LOL

  The grounds are beautiful with pathways and places to sit. There are outside play things for kids too.

The inside is immaculate. One half for families and the other half for adults.
It's worth the click.
Staying here saved me from driving 2 hours everyday. Which I would have just stayed in Mr. M's. room. There is a full kitchen on our side and any food is free to eat unless someone has their name on it. One night I came in and there were 7 large pizza's from Pizza Johns. They donate once a week. Volunteers come in to make some of the best food ever on the family side where there is a full chefs kitchen.  One night I ate the best chicken enchiladas I have ever had. I mean they were better than mine. LOL

The rooms are so comfortable, an amazing bathroom and a small kitchen. Oh yeah a laundry room free to use. 

Ronald McDonald House Charities ...

The people that work there are so kind as well. I mentioned before I found my spirit sister there. I will tell you about her next time.
If you have a Ronald McDonald house in your area think about donating. They help so many people in a time of worry and stress.
