I am on my way Sunny. But a warning, I will have 3 littles with me.
It will be in the low 90' s here again today, but then it should begin to cool off..hopefully just in the 70's or once in a while it will be in the 80's, but breezy as well. So not like summer.

Another crisp day ahead, the leaves are starting to fall....they sure look pretty though with the multitude of colours. I have to cord up the last of next years wood today...it's a good feeling to be ready for Winter a year ahead.

Wood done a full year in advance ! Good for you ! ( even if I understand that his how it should be done) The only thing I have done so far is take my summer shirts and shorts down to my clothes rack in the basement....well and pull out my 2 tomato plants and a Basil plant.
Girls are here...TTYL

You both have lots of time...I do not so I make a rush for everything before the middle of October. The wood is all corded up and the mess is raked and burnt...I love the smell of the wood chips smoldering.

I love the smell too. But feel quite guilty adding the carbon to the air. It is a quandary. What is worse, in carbon count, using electricity, propane or wood to keep warm?

I think it is all the same...pollution is pollution. Mind you, we'd die in our area without heat.

I do agree, pollution is pollution...but I guess we should look into alternative sources of heat. Perhaps nuclear ?? That is probably just as bad though.
Going to read and then sleep a few hours.
Sweet Dreams every one.

Good morning. Sunny, I thunk quite a bit of our power is supplied by solar and wind. And more is added daily. Tnat is a good thing. California is good for that. We are working on keeping drilling down to a low roar. And improving our water movement all the time.

Good Morning. About Solar energy. I am hopeful that technology will improve to such that we all can take advantage of it. That or new re homology will provide us with sources for heat and cooling methods. Not to mention cooking methods.
I made my flu shot appointment today. Another job done.

Tina, the day he turned 4 I told him that he wasn't allowed to have a diaper/pull ups anymore and that if he wanted to come in the car/truck he had to use the potty....and he hasn't had one accident since. I should have threatened him a long time ago. We had snow flurries falling at supper time.

It was 102° today. Sunny I might like a snow flurry or two. It's awful. We've been to Ginger's and it's just as hot there. Colt had baseball practice and it was horrible and the gnats were horrible too.
I haven't check the garden in a week. I imagine everything is burned up.

I watched my soap ( I always record it so I can FF thru the commercials) and now I am going to read a bit before going to sleep.
I wish everyone a fantastic nights sleep. Nity-Nite.

It's a dry day here. The kids and I went picking apples again this morning...I wish I knew what the different varieties of wild apples on our farm are. We found a new tree that seems to be producing a small sweet variety...we picked for pies than took the ones of the ground for the cows and horses as treats.

We only got around 2/10 of an inch of rain. I am hoping for more tonight.
Yes, I too am made happy by the cows/horses getting a Treat. I remember we would do the same thing when we'll ed on the farm. We had 2 Apple trees, a cherry tree, a peach tree and pear tree ..many dropped to the ground, and if I did not getting soon enough to salvage a few for say applesauce, the cows would get them. They sure did like that.
I ordered Ian his birthday gift today. It will be sent to him direct. I will drop his card on the mail tomorrow. After that is I the mail, my mind will be I Christmas.

Are they doing road work Junie? Yes, the livestock love apples...in fact, we once had a cow that was so greedy that she choked on them. We had to call the vet to save her. Lesson learned, we now cut them in pieces. Rain for today...and I need to clean and mop the house. The 'sticky' toddler sure made a mess

Hi all,
Hi all, just finished up my bills and stuff, trying to auto pay as much as possible … makes life just a little easier... filed my pile of receipts too, sure does pile up fast.. Its been really nice here...81* today, made a pear crisp a couple days ago it was really good, not to sweet, a neighbor gave Joe a sack of pears and had to use them up, and I am not crazy about just eating them raw...
Well I better get busy and run a vacuum around... my dog sheds enough to make a new dog , it's time for another bath for him too... he will be mad at me for a while... does not like being wet at all...LOL!
Have a wonderful day all Nana

And now you are talking of fresh pear crisp.YUM! You all are making me look lazy..... We too are having beautiful weather. I wish it would last until next year when it is time for summer. Yes Sunny, " they" are resurfacing the road into and out of Kelso, which is where we live. Will also be closed tomorrow. So once again we will Be getting up at the crack of dawn to make sure we get out of town while we can.

I had to take DD to the hospital yesterday, she called in severe pain. We waited at one hospital for 4 hrs, seen a doctor who said it was her kidneys and sent us to another hospital....then we waited there for 8 hrs to be sent home to go back today. My mother took her this time...I only got home at 3 am with GB with me. The hospital is so full that people are on stretchers in hallways...unless it is cardiac related, you are sent home to come back again. They gave her an antibiotic pill there and one for this morning....I have no clue what today holds for her.

No word from Sunny. Maybe it's just a UTI or kidney infection that an antibiotic will take care of.
Tonight I fixed a stir fry with egg plant, okra, tomatoes and added rice. Johnny liked it and said he'd eat it again. Will wonders never cease. I planted 2 egg plants and have given all but 2 of the fruit away. Guess I should have tried this stir fry sooner.

Good. You have one more alterative that will work for you, Sheri. When I find something that Teddy will eat I do a little dance. But he burns out on new things quickly too.

They still have no idea what DD's issues are...but after another 6 hr wait they sent her home with antibiotics and told her to go back when she is finished if the pain persists.
I am taking GB home today...he is getting to comfy being here this long.
Tina, have they made a decision on the power outage....the news stated they were debating to do it or not.

It sounds like norCal is turning things off today. The winds are supposed to hit here tomorrow. We have better infrastructure in SoCal. They will watch the wires carefully and turn it off if needed.

Will they fix the lines Tina? The news said it was poor connections that could spark more fires.

WOW!!! I have heard nothing about your power, Tina. I am so sorry, and I hope the best for you and yours.
Girls are taking their nap, and I am getting ready to make supper so I can put it in the fridge. Tonight at supper time we are going to Skype with Micah as his Birthday was Moday. He opened his gifts from us last night but with it being an hour later out east, it was his bedtime.

Northern California has a sloppy electric company. Ours down here run a tighter ship and keep things in better repair. So much of our fires are started by natural things like lightening or something like a tractor sparking off a rock. And they take off. Some by arsonists are deliberately started. Wish me luck, it looks like our winds start tomorrow.

It is a cold, crispy day....the frost is so thick that it looks like snow.
It is time to start cutting back all the perennials, then clean the mess.

Still no word from Tina...now I am beginning to worry. I will go with she is OK but the power is out.
When I got into the tub this morning it was 66*f outside. When I got out of the tub, it was 55*F outside. Right now it is 50*F outside. I guess there is no avoiding that Winter is well in its way.
So this afternoon I changed over Rod's closet, and I took my capris and such out If my closet as well. May I say I am not looking forward to Winter....???

The craft fair was nice, but a lot smaller than what I am used to. Oh well, I suppose I will adjust. The weather is beautiful so it was a nice day out.
They are blacktopping the roads in our area these days. I sure hope they get done soon.

Thanks Tina, we had the meal yesterday and celebrated my birthday at the same time.
DD and the grands stayed the night at my mothers....they plan to spend the day here today.
GB finished up all the appt's with the specialists. They will need to do surgery next year to straighten his eyes...they also said he will always need glasses after the surgery as well. It was not news that I wanted to hear, I was hoping that patches would have been an option.

Yes it is Tina...the sad part is that if we had gotten in to see the specialist years ago, it might have been able to be patched. We were over two years waiting. I love turkey leftovers as well. We put it between bread and smother it with gravy..yum.

GG and I just cut back and cleaned up all the hostas for Winter...I had a full wheelbarrow full. I am hoping to tackle the astilbes tomorrow.
It was nice to have leftovers and not to have to make supper twice in a row.
