Bored today and sitting in my chair isn't 

getting stuff done.   So this morning I 

decided to mow the yard.  It usually

takes me 1/2 hour to mow the front and

back.  Today it took over an hour mowing

slow and getting it all cleaned up. I took 

6 inches off as I hadn't mowed for a couple

weeks.  Love my brace but I'll deal with

the rash later.   I took a full bag off the 

front and another off the back!

North back yard.

Front yard!

After taking a lunch break and putting my feet

up for a half hour it was time to set them free.

It usually takes me a day to get them all out, but

today I just did half and came in to rest.

Will do the rest tomorrow!

Getting Ready for Surgery!!

 Yesterday I had a visit with the Orthopedic

specialist and it's now time to get the knee

taken care of!  The swelling is getting worse

and still painful.  I have been dealing with this

issue for the past 6 months and had the knee

Baker's cyst taken care of a month ago plus

a steriod shot to help.  I was good for a week

or so and then all the sudden it was back to

pain, swelling and at night something it was

hard to sleep.  Then on the 16th I again was

awaken with muscle cramps to the point I 

couldn't stand on that leg.  This is an on going

issue that I just deal with.

At my age there is a lot to deal with and

I am not one to just sit in my chair.  Life

again is just so short, go out and enjoy it!!

The date is set for surgery, have to have a

covid test 48 hours prior and then they

were nice enough to setup all the PT appt.

for the next month!!

They have just added a ekg test before

 surgery.  Stopping some of my meds

so surgery isn't a hazard. 

Loss Of Two Veteran Friends

Some of you know as I posted on FB 

that I got word that one of my gardening

friend, Richard has passed away.  His

friend sent me an email about

his passing last month.   I hadn't heard 

from him in a couple weeks after we 

chatted about making a visit to see

another friend next month.  He checks

in a couple times a week.   So I sent him

an email checking in on him and got no

answer, now I know why.  May he rest

in peace and enjoy gardening on the 

other side.  

I personally want to thank Flannel 

Farms for their tribute to Richard and

for them to know he truly enjoyed all

the videos that they have produced.  

There was one more request that 

Richard had was to have me send to

them a couple banana starts so that

they could have them there.  This am

I worked out the matter with Mr. & Mrs.

Flannel Farm and as soon as they come

up I will be sending them out.  Richard,

I'm still full filling your requests.  Rest 

now in peace.  Let me also shout out to

David the Good for another place that

Richard enjoyed.  Happy Growing and 

sharing with others.

We also talked about visiting another

dear friend in April and Richard wanted

to bring his friends here for a visit.  Our

gardens are open for those that might want

to visit.

This comes after loosing another friend

last Oct., Lauren was another guy that

loved coming to the gardens and see 

what was growing.  Lauren would check

in daily and it was a shock to get a call

from his friend telling me he was in the

hospital.  During covid they wouldn't 

allow folks in the hospital so I wasn't 

able to go visit.  May he too rest in peace.

 

Why am I posting about my friends, 

simple.  Do you have a will and some

one with a power of attorney?  Do you

know if you don't the State will step in?

Your poor friends have to find your family

members, so please have contact information

available.   Keep all doc in a safe place and

the person that has the power of attorney 

know your final wishes in writing!

Life is just to short!!

 Thank you for stopping in as 

we just reached 30,000 today.

Getting Ready To Plant!

 

I was asked where we got these.  Amazon!! 

I was looking to replace the one I got from 

Park seeds many moons ago.  I came across

these after finding the one I have has a steep

price.    I ordered just one and boy were they

nice and small and don't take up much room.

I filled the first ones fast and then ordered

two more.  

On these you just have to pop in the vent 

black circle in the top cover and put the 

middle into the black trays.  Fill with dirt

and put on the cover.  

Yesterday was planting Tomatoes, Peppers,

and Hibiscus.

With today is our Daturas after they

soak over night.  

All done and now they just need to 

grow.
