The Path
We had been going to the Farmer’s Market every Friday morning, but EJ has been very busy and working very hard at his job this week, and he was very tired, so we didn’t go this morning. We need honey, but we have enough… Continue Reading “The Path”
There And Back Again
JJ starts college this coming Monday. We have been teaching him the route to the college by having him drive us there and back again several times over the last couple months. The last time he drove us to the college, I wrote down… Continue Reading “There And Back Again”
A Crappy Life
Lately I have had a rather crappy life. I mean, really. One of our cats has had diarrhea. Badly. I was constantly discovering it and cleaning it up and mopping the floors. I’ve also dumped out and washed the litter boxes because the cat… Continue Reading “A Crappy Life”
Oh, Crap!
This morning EJ and I again worked at getting the RV ready to sell. I cleaned out the inside, sweeping and vacuuming, while EJ mostly emptied the outside compartments. The possibility of selling the RV is bittersweet. When we bought it, it represented fun,… Continue Reading “Oh, Crap!”

The Front Porch Garden
We were still without a coffee machine this morning. Or, rather, we were without the pot that broke the other day. Tuesday my husband made coffee by placing a glass measuring cup in the machine and holding open the doohicky that stops the flow… Continue Reading “The Front Porch Garden”
Laundry Day
Today we did laundry. When we first moved into our house, the washer and dryer were in the unfinished basement. I had to constantly run down to the basement through our unheated very-cold-in-the-winter back porch to do laundry. So when we redid our downstairs… Continue Reading “Laundry Day”
Mosquito Ordeal
I love storms. I love observing radar on weather sites on the Internet, which lets me track storms coming our way. I think I could have easily been a meteorologist (or archaeologist or psychologist) if I didn’t already have the life that I love.… Continue Reading “Mosquito Ordeal”
Companion Gardening
My husband likes to do companion gardening. For anyone who might not know, companion gardening involves planting two or more plant species together in order to create a beneficial situation for both. A number of different goals can be accomplished with companion planting. Some plants, like… Continue Reading “Companion Gardening”
