Summing it Up...

Now, that I'm way on the wrong side of sixty, I feel that being true to self is important. "I yam, what I yam." Kindness and smiles are to be given away. Women are strong. Men are more vulnerable than we believe. Husbands may come and go...but one thing I know for sure is that I will NEVAH live without a corgi or coffee in my life if I can prevent it. Come piles of dog fur or hot water!

Blustery day...

The frost is on the pumpkin today. Dang...it's downright chilly in northeastern Indiana! We're not prepared for this nonsense!

The birdfeeder is busy; the cardinal couple are messy eaters, and feed the masses below, with their droppings. Corn is growing under the feeder, and is nearly a foot high....how strange.

When the weather cools, it makes my project list go into high gear. The gauntlet's been dropped, and the race is on to get-r-done before snow flies. Yard, flowerbeds, winterize house and rv. Sigh....where's my hot cider and afghan?

It's cooled down a lot here in WV too! My feeders are busy too! I feed mine sunflower seeds only. When I give them the mixed wild bird seed they seem to just throw what they don't like on the ground. Then I end up with a lot of morning doves who will eat that stuff.

Hugs,
Angela

For the first time in 8 years, we saw a pair of cardinals here. How I had missed those festive topknotted birdies!

Get yerself one of those mugs with a top, and take yer hot cider around with you as you go from task to task! I do! It sweetens the chores a bit!

Okay - it's cooling down here too. So we do our work - but CDM -don't ever forget to play and take the time to have your hot cider. That is just as important as the work.

Y'all come back now...
