Happy weekend hugs to you and wishing you and yours well. My son is coming in today to spend some time and watch college football. I don't know what I would have done without him and my daughter in law with all of the help they've been giving me. They want me to come and live with them when I feel the time is right because I really don't need this big house any longer. May you have a terrific weekend and new week........George
Happy Friday my friend and hope you have a great weekend. Very hot for today, Saturday and Sunday then cooling down with good chances of rain all week. Know having thoughts of my wife will always be but that's part of the healing process. Many years of love and happiness.
Hi Tom - long time no hear from.......hope you have been well.............I have been negelctul of some of my friends here on NOTH of which I appologize. It's been a quiet sort of summer but in the 90's a lot of times. Today we had a thunderstorm pass thru and cooled things down from 90 into the 70's tonite. Good thing we didn't turn off the AC. Take care and have a restful evening. Hugs, Wendy
Hi, my friends, I'm back!!!! Thank you all, for all the sweet comments. So sorry to be so long away from here on, The Hill. Wow, It has been a long time. I have been so busy, and then in spring I was out strait, feverishly planting the veggie “container garden”. Then I have to cut down all the trees to make room for sunshine to be on the plants more than 8 hours a day. Early Summer was too hot to work outside all day so I only worked if it cooled morning and evening. Around, mid-June I hurt my knee, walking backward, and falling over a tree, and trapping my foot under another tree. If you watch Pit Bulls & Parolees, I pretty much did the same thing Tia did to her knee. Well, I even have corn in buckets. They are up against the house wall, 'cause corn needs competition to grow tall; so farmers planted sunflowers around the corn field because sunflowers grow faster than corn. Hence, competition. It was too late in the year to start sunflowers from seed. Well, I was flat on my back for 3+ weeks then on crutches a couple months. Only recently, I haven't needed crutches, nor the knee brace, all the time; but I'm still not steady on my feet, so I walk very carefully. I have been scrambling to catch up on all the things that I haven't been able to do around here; but the painful knee is so exhausting. Still can't work on trees with chain-saw. I only mowed once early June; planned to mow, but wrecked knee the day before I had planned to. The yard is a wild savanna; So, I have ordered an industrial weed wacker that has a saw blade, metal lawnmower like blades, and stiff plastic blades, self propelled over-sized wheels, 2- 24v-4.0H, Lith'. Batteries, even though it only uses 1 at a time, and a 30 min., quick charger. With cash back and coupons I got all for $82, so I think I “done good” on the intensive research. My friend Tony can't believe I found that deal. I'll let you know if I have trouble with it. So, that has been my summer adventure. And, I am a 70 yr old diabetic with a heart condition, so I'm still quarantined since last June 2020... 2020. I also, haven't been able to do much with replacing the siding on my house. Started to prep the underlay, then hurt the knee. Hopefully my knee will be able to let me work on that within the next week. I also want to saw up the trees that are down, for heat wood this winter. If not, I can tarp the wall, buy wood, and use those trees next winter. I also have to replace my deck this fall. Just need to complete, in front of the door. It is 4 days on the siding and 4 days on the deck, that absolutely, has to be done before snow. The rest can wait until spring. But, I should be able to get a lot more done, before snow. I hope to be here (I know, I say this every time) a whole lot more often. I'll catch up, eventually. Thank you again for being my friend. I hope all are well, and I hope everyone made it through the horrible weather we just had. My heart goes out to any who have been harmed, by that &/or the evacuation from Afghanistan &/or Covid-Delta &/or all the chaos, that we have been plagued by this past year plus. Well, time to go to bed. Hugs to all, TP

GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Mr. TOMDD, I pray YOU have a SATISFYINGLY SENSATIONAL SATURDAY, and are having a STUPENDOUS WEEKEND, my friend...
Good day and a joyful weekend for you. Very sad days for me as I lost my beautiful wife of 65 years. She has been my life with so many happy memories. She looked so beautiful, calm and rested on her passing. So now I go on thinking and missing her........George
Hi Tom - how have you been and how has your summer been so far. Hope you've been well - haven't heard from you in a while and I know I haven't been around much either. Sorry about that. Hope your weekend has been good and that you start off the new week with a smile! Take care, Wendy
Just a note to say hello and to wish you a lovely Sunday. Hope you are doing well and staying safe. All is well my way. Actually enjoyed cooler weather this week with temps in the 80's. But it went back up in the mid 90's for the weekend. Before we know it Fall will be upon us. Time is flying by. Anyway, you take care and enjoy your Sunday, and have a great week~~~ hugs, debijo
A happy hello to you and hope the weekend is great for you. Had to put my wife in the hospital with pneumonia again Wednesday. Makes 9 times since the first of year. She gets aspiration pneumonia easy. Have a good new month to start my friend....George
