Comments (18)Awww, thanks so much! LOL about cloning DH, he's definitely one of the good guys and a big help to me and I'm kinda used to having him around after 44 years! Here in zone 3 we can't grow tomatoes in our gardens at ground level as it's possible to have frost in any month. Not every year but it can happen. So I've only grown them in large pots on the deck but the squirrels have always eaten them. So I hope to grow them in this little house but it'll be an experiment for sure. I've never seen hornworms here, not sure why - maybe the birds eat them. I'll post more pics altho we're pretty slow here! That's what happens with retirement. So many things to do. This house only took 4 1/2 months to get to this state! DH originally told me he could build it in a week! Guess he *could* have but we keep getting sidetracked. Just glad to have it done....See MoreUpdate on my friend with cancer (sorry.. long)
Comments (35)Suzieque...thank you so much. I just heard that the hospital may send her home tomorrow, they have her on a pump for pain and i am not sure if that will continue at home, but her dh said she wants to go home. Marie... I hope your DD and DH continue to improve. Thanks for the note, you have been so kind to me in the past. and helped me with other things. Ellie.... aw, thank you! I often feel, and say, that I wish I could be as articulate as some of you on here. I appreciate your kind words. I imagine as we all age, we will be in these situations more often than not. And, of course, one of these days...... no one can say when..... we will each be the one whose hand is being held. All I know is that we are not promised a tomorrow....so live today as if it is your last. I have not done that by any means, ever, in fact I am one of the worst for worrying about things I cannot change, but sometimes things happen to put life in perspective for you. This is a wonderful place, this KT, to come and share and ask for advice, and for prayer and good thoughts. And also to pass on encouragement to our 'cyber' friends as they need it. Bless you all!...See MoreMy update with pictures! (long, of course LOL!)
Comments (20)Vique, actually the kids are as innocent as they look! I am truly blessed to have such wonderful kids and grandkids. Thanks again for the nice comments. Mcmann, I will send you an email thru your "my page" regarding the dog. I'm sorry you lost Cleo. What kind of dog was she? I'm glad you are ready to let another one in your heart now. I agree with you about the field dogs. They are such a sight to behold at work. Sedona had such strong bird instincts built in. She was working the field at 6 months like a pro and she loves every minute of it. ~Betsy...See MoreElmer J Fudd
