I am afraid few are making it into the house because we eat the ripe ones as an outdoor snack when we are doing chores. My plan….start the seeds.

DH successfully bred two does yesterday. He claimed he told them if they didn’t play nice with this buck that he was planning on barbecuing tomorrow (today) and he would get them to help him then and it worked. He got his eyes examined and he told me his glasses will cost over $600. We went to...

My family has in-laws that reside in France and it’s starting to get real over there. Fortunately they are rather wealthy but they have begun to use an extra apartment they have as their store room and have been putting food and supplies in there. My sister was breaking down the dollars per euro...

Well most of my life I have been fine with storms but I guess Ida affected me because during the storm I was just praying and DD and DH were asking me if I was okay. I just told them it was good to pray. Just last night DD question me about how to make a storm shelter. I told her I guess we’d...

The past couple of days have been hard on me because of a new pain in my right shoulder. I have done just about everything available to me, medically, with heat and I lastly took some pot gummies that I now regret telling DS about because apparently I have disappointed him and I didn’t even...

I use both long and short term investments. I haven’t exactly been thinking much about individual investments lately so I just been investing in mutual funds

I guess I am getting old. I don’t know what I did to my right shoulder but it has been hurting since yesterday afternoon. I have a Lidoderm patch on and I have no intention of removing it. Took aspirin and muscle relaxer and still hurting. I guess I can predict the weather because it’s about to...

Yeah well years later I got married to my ex and he, his dad and brothers used to hunt rabbits with dogs together and my FIL said that when he was young it used to take more rabbits to feed a family but they are bigger now. I don’t know if they believed me when I told them what had happened to...

Well I try to be brief and not write a short story. So whatever Daddy went through inspired him to trap the rabbits because he couldn’t always be in Grandpa’s cornfield. He then made a coop for the rabbits and as he trapped them he determined the sex immediately and dispatched the bucks. He kept...

I do look at a few stocks and make investments as I am able. I also look at the big picture and peoples fears and concerns. Do in 2016 Hillary was definitely gonna win the presidency. I wasn’t voting for her but no one had Trump winning. So I was like….people are gonna be buying guns and ammo...

I honestly try to not get tin cans at all and just can stuff myself. Like I don’t buy my pasta sauce in cans but jars so I can reuse them but if I really want to do something I might make an exception. I do miss having a Martin house.

Apparently rabbits must be attracted to cornstalks a lot. It’s one of my first memories coming home from Australia and Daddy put the bulleye on his head and went to the cornfield with a shotgun because Grandpa complained about the rabbits. I can tell y’all what happened after that but it’s...

We invested a lot of time and money in something that just rotted. We did get some use of it a few years though. It’s just I wonder if I couldn’t do something with 15 ounce cans fastened together somehow and have the perfect size holes cut out and sanded and maybe cover it with cool seal for...

In my younger years I tried to play with the genetics and cross the Cornish with the White Rock and see what I can create from the cross but I didn’t get the fast meat I was hoping for. I don’t care for the greed and the waste of food that the Cornish Cross seems to have but I do like the meat...

I really think the whole garden is planted but I did buy a sack of wild bird seeds. I would like to plant some milo in a section and see what we can get out of it and a bunch of sunflowers to help keep the bugs away from the vegetables. I gotta confess I got that idea from DH. I can get a whole...

I used to have a birdhouse for Martins. I liked to watch them fly around in the afternoon. It was disappointing when we had to change out the house. The first one was wooden but it rotted out. The next one was sheet metal which we thought we were being smart but I don’t think the birds cared for...

DH is now in a normal rhythm and taking a nap and I am probably about to join him because we had to get up so early. I dropped off DD and my application before coming home. DON asked if I can orientate Wednesday. Just a little rest and I will spread some love around various farms. I am in...

I gave up waiting for the nearest nursing home to call me. I will return to my previous facility in the city but only part-time. It’s great to know people who will take you on no matter what…and my daughter. So seeing as I have to start from scratch with all new work clothes I will just sew a...

I guess it’s time to cut out a gi. I hope it’s an easy pattern. Now I have all my junk in DH’s old bedroom. He wants me to organize the shelves in the pantry. Maybe that won’t take too long 🤷‍♀️ I just got a missed call and I tried to return the call but the guy hung up on me instead of just...

So yesterday was HDD’s birthday but we going to the city tonight because we have reservations at an Italian restaurant they all fell in love with. Me too actually. It’s great. And today is middle child’s birthday and she wanted garden plants so I bought her $10 worth, plus the old man threw in a...
