Happy weekend and new month to you. Going back home today after spending a week in Indiana visiting family ,seeing the old neighborhood and house I grew up in, and making a tour of the old covered bridges. Had forgotten how many thousands of acres of corn and soy beans were grown.here. Saw and did lots of things that brought back many memories. Have a terrific week....George
What difference does the change of a month make? Sometimes none at all; then we have from September 30 to October 1. Oh my, the leaves start falling!
But why can't they all fall in a nice neat pile instead of all over the yard. And about the time you get them raked up, the wind comes along and you get to start all over. Or after you get them bagged, the tree decides to drop another bunch of leaves.
Doesn't Snoopy make it look easy! Well, life may not be that easy but it sure can be fun. I am praying today, this 1st day of the wonderful month of October, that your Friday, your weekend, and your month of October will be fun and exciting!
We just finished the last of the Chicken and Dumplings. And yes, it was delicious. So now it is time for a Peppermint Pattie!
We have been to the Glaucoma doctor and to the Optical store to pay for Hubby's glasses. We did stop and buy a lottery ticket. Hubby always buys one for him and one for me. If there is a winning ticket, it is his ticket not mine.
We still haven't had a drop of rain but they keep promising us it is coming tomorrow. This is the third day in a row they have said tomorrow.
It is almost time to go check on the chickens, give them fresh water, throw them some mealworms and collect eggs.
Have you ever had fresh "from the hen" eggs? Oh my gosh! They just have such a wonderful flavor. So now I'm off to water the plants and watch for hummingbirds.
Just collected eggs after our Rosa's Tacos meal. Earlier this morning the orchids got their cube of ice for the week. Hummingbirds got fresh food in the feeder.
Halloween nails got put on. Showered & washed hair (should have colored it). Filled up car with gas. Lottery tickets bought. A load of clothes got washed.
So now it is time to chill and read my Kindle app because it is very near 100° and too hot to sit even on the covered patio today. Wednesday Hubby has an appointment with a vision eye doctor and Thursday he has an appointment with a glaucoma eye doctor (hence car filled with gas). Now, orange you glad I'm done.
Guess what we are doing this week... collecting eggs! We are getting 6 fresh eggs a day. Our friends came over yesterday for a visit and I gave them all the eggs we had, which was between 2 and 3 dozen (all fresh).
So today, we are patiently waiting for the six hens to take turns on the nest. There are several nests in the coop but they all lay their eggs in one nest. So when you open the top, all six, 3 white (Leghorns) and 3 brown (Rhode Island Reds) are all right there together.
Isn't that strange? Soon they will be able to hatch chickens because they have one rooster added to the mix now. They lost two young chickens (out of three) they had in a different pen. So they traded the last young one for a rooster because the older hens would pick and peck on the younger one.
Guess I had better go figure out what to do for our meal of the day. Bills are already paid, grass has been mowed, and I am getting hungry. So share your smile and know that I am sending Blessings and Hugs your way everyday.
Good Morning George, hope you have a nice trip to Indiana with family. It's always nice to get away for a change of scenery. Hope your week is good as we are winding down September.
Great for you, George. On my page is a photo of where my daughter's ashes were spread. Luckily I have audio videos of her just before she died after a trek thru the woods with her dog. Nobody knows what caused her death - could have been a spider bite or something like that. Sending love, Anne
Kisses are the best way to wake up. Woo Hoo! We made it to the weekend. College Football day is my favorite day.
I sure hope you are getting out and having fun this weekend. Our temperatures may reach 90° again today, but it is so wonderful early in the mornings to be in the upper 50's.
Hubby is outside washing the Orange Tahoe. I think I will take the dogs for a walk. Now, if you believe that about me, I do have some Ocean Front property in Arizona for you.
Thanks for spending a few minutes with me today. Don't forget to share that beautiful smile of yours with everyone you see.
