Posted on Thursday, August 6, 2026 by Paul

We got up early and headed to the Vet because it was time for Grace’s checkup, nail trim, and a precautionary de-fleaing—just in case she’d picked up any tiny freeloaders during her two-week “outdoor retreat.” Getting her into the carrier … Continue reading →

We made a very ambitious plan yesterday: get up, get dressed, and conquer the garden.  And somehow, against all odds, we actually followed the plan.  We marched outside like professional landscapers and came back as sweaty, dirt-covered garden warriors.  Final … Continue reading →

Toosday And We Are Busy!!

Posted on Tuesday, June 23, 2026 by Paul

We had our coffee, then changed into our official “working clothes,” which are just regular clothes with a higher chance of dirt, sweat, and regret. First stop: Orange Farming Supply for additional veggies, because apparently our garden looked at us … Continue reading →

We got up, checked the weather, and decided 8:00 am was the right time to return to the garden, continue planting the new veggies, and remove the ones past their prime. We enjoyed our coffee and fought the battle of … Continue reading →

Hello Weekend; Mary “Rests” Today!

Posted on Friday, June 5, 2026 by Paul

Poof!  Mary got a cold!  Headache, sniffles, slight cough, and most telling, no desire for a glass of wine!  I fixed her coffee, and we sat at the table for a few minutes talking to Colleen.  After that, Mary headed … Continue reading →
