Work! Eh Gad Man… We Are Retired!

Estimated reading time: 2 minutes

What a day… We started bright and early in the garden cleaning out the summer plants that were done and filling up two compost containers and three 100 gallon bags of “soon to be compost”.  We started at 7am and finished off at 5pm!

There were eight tomato plants in the blank area. We rototilled and covered it with straw

Some of our tomato plants are still producing... These are three pound beefstakes

Sue worked magic in the kitchen.  Paul would see her with her colander entering the gardening and harvesting tomatoes, onions, squash, herbs and other goodies and then disappearing for two hours while she prepared a fantastic dish.  Yesterday she made ratatouille and it was simply amazing.  You could taste summer with every bite.

We cleaned up and watched “Smokey And The Bandit” until Bunnaford was available for a short visit!  She is going on vacation for two weeks so we went to visit her last night… All was normal, Paul open and aluminum screw topped bottle of wine…. Well, Bunny gave him a corkscrew so he used it!

Still funny after 36 years!

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
