I am having my coffee. Thank you so much for all the birthday wishes and congratulations. It has been a very big busy 6 days. Lucy was kept in the NICU all this time. They wanted to make sure she was okay. She had a feeding tube in through her nose to feed her if she did not take enough bottle...

Well, DD did it. She had the twins on my birthday. Not as planned. Emergency C-section. Carried them 39 weeks and 4 days. She was bleeding. Had one of the placentas tearing. DD had to have a transfusion, lost some blood. She is doing fine now. Penelope Jane weighs 8 pounds 11 oz and is fine...

Well now DD is 39 weeks and 1 day. All is well. She could go full term to 40 weeks. Tomorrow is my parents wedding anniversary. IF they were alive they would be celebrating 71 years. My birthday is Saturday and I will be celebrating 70 years, so twins on my birthday would be fun. I...

Still drinking my coffee. I got up several times during the night to check on DD. She is now 38 weeks and 3 days. She was having odd things last night and she was not sure if it was time for the babies, but she finally got to sleep. She is doing really well. I see no reason why she would have...

I have 3 barrels to use for compost and they are too big for me to handle when full. I just realized, I do not have to fill them to the top. I can fill them way less and dump and put back in. I am dumping them out soon and I will use what I have for the raised beds that I am going to make this...

Tried the coffee in the pot, but I had to dump it out and make my own. I have been on line paying bills this morning. I built a fire. It was in the 30s when I got up. The sun is out and about 43 right now. There will be a low of 28 tonight and then by Saturday we will get in the 60s. I saw bee...

I do not have enough room inside really. I may have to put things in the floor at night and move outside during the day, at least things that can take the cooler weather. The onions are going to stay outside. I am waiting for money to appear. lol I have spent a lot of money on the twins...

I asked what kind of coffee they made this morning and it is called Draft Mule. I am going to have to go make a pot of coffee later. This is like drinking flavored water. I think she likes weak coffee. We had thunder and lightening around 2 this morning, but we did not get any rain. It is 49...

I am not sure I had coffee this morning. Daughter-in-law made it and it looked more like chocolate. I was kind of sleepy all day, so I made some later in the day and then kind of had heartburn. I never get heartburn, but was not sleepy. lol I have all my plants out in the greenhouse. We had...

I got up and saw it snowing a wet snow. Everything was covered in about 3 inches. All the electric lines and trees. It looked like a white wonderland. I decided to get back under the covers and then when I got up it was melting and raining some. I brought the onion seedlings back inside...

It is a really nice sunny morning. I am having my coffee and I am going to take my onion seedlings out to the patio greenhouse. I never did buy the replacement cover for it, so I am going to take some plastic over the door that is all torn. I will buy the cover soon. I have been busy helping DD...

Well, it sounds awesome, but the weeds make it not so photo awesome. LOL I did take a few pictures last year. I hope to do better with the weeds this year. I also had some flowers shading others and I planted the morning glories on a fence but they just took it over and cover a lot of other...

I have plum trees in places I do not want. lol If I find a hollyhock in a place that I need to till or plant something else, then I dig them up and transplant them. I love looking around in the spring for them and other treasures. Bee balm and oregano have spread through my yard too.

We tried everything and did not give up on him, so that makes me feel better.

Thank you. He was a busy cat and always into everything.

Same here, but the wind melted the last of the snow, but standing water everywhere.

For years I have had hollyhocks, bee balm, daisies and coneflowers reseeding after I had started them years ago. I noticed the hollyhocks were getting fewer and fewer, so last year I started tons of them. I gave some to DD and I can't wait for the snow to melt to see what I have. Last year for...

I had a huge aphid problem with kale and realized that they loved the Red Russian kale. For a couple of years I grew the Russian kale on the last row and used them like bait and really it worked. I started some Red Russian for this year. I would like to eat it, but I will plant it on the end...

I have never grown green onions and I never bought them in the store. All I ever knew about them as a kid was rarely my mother would have them on the grocery list and I remember my dad and her eating the white bulb and not the green and I am pretty sure the green was thrown away. I got married...

Thank you. I am okay. Better than I thought I would be. Most animals I have had to put to sleep, I knew what was wrong with them, but there just was not an answer for this. He was very strong and young looking for a 14-year-old and just went down so fast and when vets have no idea, it was just...
