Thank you so much for the awesome comments. I appreciate them all. It has been since Thanksgiving that I have been able to get here to send any back to you all. I am going through them all & reading them all. (still working on it) It was a quiet weather Winter. I did not start up the snow-blower once... not a single time. And, here in mid NH we had only 1 night below 0*, just 10* below for a couple hours. That is freaky warm & freaky snowless. But, of coarse we had a huge El Nino in the Pacific Ocean all winter, so, it was what I was expecting. I have been cranking, repairing & painting, for my business. I am finally in a quiet time... little work & great weather. Sooooo, I had a right eye cataract replaced. I was seeing nothing out of that eye. People kept saying, “Man, your left eye must be really tired.” Hahahahah, Actually the right eye was the one tired, from working so hard to TRY to see. So, I was done my 4 week daily regimen of eye drops yesterday. Dr., happy I am healing faster than expected, & last Dr. visit is Tuesday, 23rd.
I am working hard to get my veggie garden completely in. I have been experimenting with containers the past couple years. This year I am totally container: carrots, beets, parsnips, onions, leeks, red cabbage, eggplant, summer yellow squash (don't like zucchini, no zucchini) butternut squash, pumpkin (to eat), lots of red potato, and two variety of rare heirloom tomato, several herbs. I grow some herbs year round in the kitchen window. I have all of the “from-seed” crops in, I just need to get the already started, squashes & some herb plants, into the big growing pots. And I have to make 4 window boxes 4' x 8” each (PVC trim board) , so I can put my flowers in. I winter over a lot of flowering & foliage plants. Then a friend of mine & I have to put on a new roof on my 26' x 34' Cape. Just one side. The other side is new Architectural shakes. Then I have to replace clapboard on the front peak side, along with some trim, brick molding & window sills (PVC trim Board no more rotable wood). The clapboard is to be fiberglass reinforced concrete, (“Hardie Board”). & if I have enough time a new 8' x 8' deck. The one there now is 4' x 4',& fell off the house & is shored up with a gallon drywall bucket under 1 corner. I'm putting a floating one (not attached to the house) on concrete feet, so I don't have to bother with town permits & it can't be taxed either. So... I hope you all are doing well & enjoying a great Summer. I am going to try to get here more often, because I love hearing from you all.
WE ARE SUPPOSE TO BE IN THE 100'S FOR THE NEXT FOUR DAYS. PLEASE PRAY OUR AIR STAYS ON AND NO ELECTRIC OUTAGES. MY OLD HEART COULD NOT TAKE THAT KIND OF HEAT WITHOUT AIR. HAVE A GREAT DAY. GOD BLESS YOU. LEE
