BUSY ALL THE TIME

Just like many of you, I stay busy.  Where does time

go and go?  I bake a lot but mostly we eat it ourselves

and share with family and neighbors and forget about

 posting the results here.  I made Pumpkin Raisin Cookies, 

then a Lemon Pound Cake, followed by Zucchini Walnut 

Bars and twice I made Oatmeal Raisin Cookies 

(2nd time was earlier today)

I have worked in our yard so much this summer.

We have a second pile of limbs on the driveway that

our son will eliminate this weekend.  We pruned the

evergreens up on one side of our house.

  In August

it was the 2nd driest on record so the Fescue grass

died in areas where as the neighbors Bermuda grass

moved in on both sides of our house.  This is a battle

that I hate which has gone on for a long time.   This

is one of those things you don't care about until you

are a senior and even then many don't care about.  So I

 have kept my mouth shut about my complaint and

 do not express my views about the lawn.

I moved some more hydrangeas bushes to the

back yard this summer.  They had to be watered

daily to survive but seem to all be fine.  I am

moving toward knowing that in the future I will

be older.  I am told that's how it works and since

I am 76 I think I better be thinking of ways to

reduce some of the work of having a flower garden.

This year I did something totally different.  I planted

tomatoes in our full sun front yard, in with the

zinnias and hydrangea bushes.  This is the kind of thing

I would criticize someone else for doing.  The results

have been tomatoes for neighbors, family and others.
