Nice Day For A Walk!!

 Took Sable down to the water front 
for a walk and some fresh air.  We 
parked down by City Hall and when
we returned we had 45 minutes left 
on the meter.  A car pulled up next 
to us and I got out and asked the 
lady if she would just wait a minute
she could have my extra time. She 
smiled and asked if I was sure?  Yes
I was headed home and didn't want 
it to go to waste.  As we drove off 
she was parking in the spot.  Just love 
paying it forward.  When we parked
I noticed the car next to us was flashing
so I put a quarter in the meter.

We can home and I started working 
on the last of the perennial Hibiscus.
Just down to 3!!  Hand is a little sore
this evening, so back to exercising it.

What An Awesome Weekend!

Fall is here!  Leaves are falling!

 Saturday, 9/28 we got the veggie
garden bed all cleaned up and 
then covered the beds.
Then I worked on the Perennial 
Hibiscuses and got the two largest 
ones cut up and took some cuttings.
Down to just 6 to go.  I even got a
few Clematis put away.

Sunday 9/29 morning we started 
on the last of the tree mess on the
east fence line.  Now we hope the
fence will stop moving as their roots
were making it bow.  Matter of fact
the fence company said they couldn't
do any more for it until the trees
were gone.

We had built a PVC rack for the ladders
and them cover them with Plastic to keep
them dry.  DH was glad to see they didn't
rust due to the mess!  He remove 20 
gallons of mess and now I can get out
there to clean the fence.  I will have to 
remove all the edgers to get more mess
removed and then clean the fence.   Yes,
I'll be bleaching them clean!

Taking a break before doing more Clematis.

9/30/2024 -- Monday
I got the edgers pulled and then I cleaned out
what was behind them.  I cleaned the area next
and had a full 5 gallon bucket!

I then cleaned the deck, the lawn and 3 of the 
north flower beds besides the Peony bed.  I 
took a full bucket and 1/2 off those areas.  Ya
go out there now and there are leaves again.

Photos to come,

Getting Ready For The Next Surgery!

 A lot of stress here so I may have
to take a break.  We have weathered
DH surgery, two tree service removing
trees on adjacent properties and the 
legal action that were filed when there
was no crime committed according to
the report filed.  More on that one after
our next court date, the original post was
put in draft as I update it.  Don't want to
stress out the person that filed it!  The story
will all come out with doc as our proof.
It will be public records by then.

Let's just say lots of doctors appt. to get
ready for this next surgery.



 

I Want To Thank Everyone That Has Visited!

 You keep my counts going up! 

If you don't like the truth I speak 
then don't read my blog! 


What A Beautiful Morning Of Rain!

 The rain may cut back on my time
being out cutting back but ya know
I feel the dark clouds will soon part!

The yard is disappearing fast.

A great way to relieve all the stress of the 
issues from the hood.  Yes, our grass is green
but it's been a challenge due to the high temps
of this summer.  The back yard is another 
story as we won't water the north lawn this
year.  We have the veggie garden almost 
emptied out and trying to decide if we will
grow veggies next year due to climate change.
