Today, we had no plans other than to visit my doctor to check my PSA status, which was scheduled for 11:45 am.  In November it will have been two years since my operation. We strolled through the garden and visited … Continue reading →

Hello Summer!

Posted on Friday, June 21, 2024 by Paul

We woke up before 6:00 am and walked the garden.  The poor trellis is currently stuck playing referee between the tomatoes and the green beans. It’s like the vegetable equivalent of a high-stakes wrestling match! The trellises are wonderful! Mary collected … Continue reading →

Posted on Wednesday, June 19, 2024 by Paul

A Busy Day Doing Nothing!

Posted on Tuesday, June 18, 2024 by Paul

First things first!  Were we attacked by bunnies last night?  I jumped out of bed, put on my work uniform, and inspected the garden.  I found one single turd, and it was probably a leftover from yesterday! We are not … Continue reading →

Monday Has Arrived And We Have An Empty Calendar!

Posted on Monday, June 17, 2024 by Paul

Yesterday I had many flashbacks to mt wonderful father.  He was a man’s man! He passed way too early at 63 years old in 1970.  I often wish I could talk to him again and thank him for the lessons … Continue reading →

Never On Sunday!

Posted on Sunday, June 9, 2024 by Paul

“No, no, I screamed, please, not a walk in the garden!” My dramatic pleas were ignored entirely. Alas, another walk in the garden (translation: build a list of all the things that must be accomplished today)! Such is the life … Continue reading →

Work Work Work Work! I Thought We Were Retired!

Posted on Saturday, June 8, 2024 by Paul

OMG, the day started without us!  How can this be? We were up early and examined the outside temperature. Since it was under 70 degrees, we huddled by the fire. After it got above 70 degrees, we went to Home … Continue reading →
