Breakfast. Went to the movies. I highly recommend y'all going to see The Last Rodeo. Good, clean show with no cuss words. LILO and Stitch was a good kid show.

Practically nothing. Diesel. A oil and filter change every 300 hours. This check up was $380. Grease it, fuel it up and go! It’s a 23 HP Kubota, got a 4’ bush hog, box blade, disc, clamp on forks and front end loader. I love my little tractor! Her name is Marigold. But Marigold is too little for...

On my second cup of coffee. Picking up my granddaughters today, for a week. We’re gonna have some fun!

For starting seeds indoors in the spring, 1. Need a big black dog. The way this works is let dog outside. Dog comes in, lays in floor and dirt falls out of his coat in the floor. 2. Sweep up dirt. Black hair aerates the dirt, an extra bonus provided by the dog. 3. Place dirt and hair...

I picked up my tractor yesterday and mowed my yard! It was getting shaggy. Picking up my granddaughters today, they are spending the week. There’s a Gospel Bluegrass Festival in Grapeland, yesterday, today and tomorrow. Hey that sounds like that flowering shrub I used to have! Anyway we are...

I loaded my tractor on the flatbed trailer, strapped it down, took it to son’s house and mowed last week. I’m getting better at loading it on the trailer, wratchet straps still confound me, but I’m getting better at using those too. I was using tractor first of this week when it just wouldn’t...

Everclear for spraying the garden? Does it kill insects or make them so drunk that they fall off the plants and forget to eat them?

Coffee is ready! I need to work outside, but the heat and humidity is making me love my new air conditioner! LOL

My daughter and I had a car game we played, Barbie’s Mattel never heard of. Plumber’s Butt Barbie Homeless Barbie False Teeth Barbie Jailbird Barbie And so on……

I planted my 2 tomato plants and cucumbers. Amazing how satisfying that was. ❤️

@ducks4you my Daddy used willow for a rooting hormone. He cut the green tips of willow, stripped off the leaves, cut in quarter inch pieces and soaked in water 3 days. Every 3 days, he changed out the willow water until he saw roots.

On my second cup of coffee. My throat was like raw hamburger meat, swallowing hurt. What to deaden the pain? AH-HA! I found Kahlua! I sipped Kahlua all weekend, alcohol works well on a sore throat! My wilted cucumber and tomato plants revived and are begging to go outside. I might make that my...

I have an old berry strainer that I love. I found it in a rent house after the occupant went to a nursing home. Family cleared out the house but nobody wanted that old strainer. That was when I was 20, I’m 70 now, so I guess it’s REALLY OLD!! :lol...

Coffee is ready. Yesterday I bought 2 tomato plants and 2 cups with cucumber plants in them. All were very wilted and sad looking. I put them in the kitchen sink and watered them several times. They perked up overnight and look good now. Maybe I’ll get them planted today. I have a head cold...

Awww….. Nancy finally feels totally safe. You have given her so much love and she is secure in that love.

Nancy is in dog Heaven. ❤️

Never made grape jelly, but I’ve had failures in other fruits. Use those syrups for pancake syrup! Or if you have a dehydrator with solid sheets, make your own fruit leathers. As far as the jelly, just try again. I use certo and sure jell, both are good.
