Two tall kitchen bags of paper shedding complete, refrigerator cleaned out with leftovers from this week that the wife won't eat (I do miss my chickens at times like this), attacked the stack of mail on the kitchen table (3 weeks worth), have the wife's bedding...

    What's for dinner?

    With the wife out of commission, I have been managing the food. I have been quietly using up stuff and not fully restocking. Making progress on creating empty spaces.

    Home Health Care nurse signed off on the wife's progress yesterday. No need for them to visit anymore. One more milestone reached. Sipping a flavored coffee this morning. Oatmeal creme pie is the roast. Trying to decide what I won't get completely done this morning

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Fortunately for us, the heavy storms passed to the south of us, that area unfortunately got hit hard. Wife is still sleeping, so I don't know what I slept though. The NOAA weather radio didn't wake me up, so I don't know if we were in the clear or if I just was oblivious Another 40 degree...

    How to Build Food Security on ¼ Acre

    You also need to account for critter protection. Depending on your location, you may have issues with people beyond critters. One night of deer browsing can wipe out a bean crop. Raccoons love almost ready to pick sweet corn. Also, depending on your location, you might need to attend to...

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    She is progressing more or less on schedule. Doctor visits are good, last home health care nurse visit is today. The yo-yo weather systems are messing her up. I am doing what needs to be done. Lol. Work is very crazy right now, trying to handle multiple fire drills. One step at a time

    Long story short, 90% probability the new concrete sidewalks and patio are going to happen soon. Need confirmation on the tax refund. Once we get the work scheduled, I can start planning the landscaping around it...yes, adding things to the list

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Full carload of cardboard to the township recycling site. Happy to see daffodils blooming along the way on south facing banks. Spent about 2 hours attending to the gravel. Saw a dude mowing with his lawn tractor, leaving wheel tracks in the soft ground, and mud on the tires, but you do you, buddy

    What's for dinner?

    I took ground beef that was pre made as Salisbury steak patties and made sliders with them. Served with sweet potato fries. Went all out, pan toasted the buns. Wife ate the most in one serving since before surgery. Thinking either pierogies again tonight or cheeseburger macaroni

    Coffee's Ready, Come and Sit on the Porch

    Bluebird boxes are up, the old decrepit one from the previous owner is down and in the trash. In personal style, no outdoor project is truly complete until it is anointed with my blood. As I was finishing up with the second box, between the wire I was using, the box, and wire cutters, I...

    Busy week, happy first spring Saturday. Male osprey singing yesterday on the top of the cell tower where they have a nest. Robins and red winged blackbirds everywhere. Need to get the bluebird nesting boxes up this weekend. Remember all that soup we canned for the wife's recovery? Yeah...

    Got several slices of turkey breast. Made stuffing, rolled up in the slices, baked until hot, served with gravy and mashed potatoes.
