My Grandmothers’ Hands

The women before me — I’m not sure when it happened, but I looked at my hands one day and realized they weren’t my own anymore, they were my grandmothers’. When I was younger, my hands were smooth and unscarred. They would always be my hands, me, no one else. Then I started noticing other…

Winding Down

Getting an early start buttoning up my garden — This year I am going to avoid panic cleaning up of my garden. Last year I didn’t have the energy and stamina to do it and nothing was done until after the first frost. I hired a young friend to pull up all my tomatoes and stack the cages, but…

Our Squirrels Aren’t Spoiled

Honestly, they aren’t — A friend who grew sweet corn this summer didn’t get some of it picked in time, so it wasn’t suitable for people food. I said I would take it as it would make some good squirrel noshies. He brought me some today, so I sat out on the porch and…

Beats Falling Flat on My Face

The things that make my life easier — I never imagined myself ever needing any devices and mobility aids when I got older. The only time I needed anything at all was the crutches I used briefly when I seriously sprained my ankle when I missed the street running out of the back of the dorm in college…

Well, That Solves the Mystery of the Sunflower Heads on the Deck!

Squirrels are tricky little buggers — I was out this morning hoping to film a small thunderstorm heading our way. Of course, as soon as it got here, it fizzled out and only spit a little bit of rain. Out of the corner of my eye, I thought I saw a big brown leaf on one…

I Love Technology

It makes saving memories so much easier — When I retired, I was given a gift card for the university bookstore, so I used it towards an Epsom Perfection V600 flatbed photo scanner. I have been spending the days where I am stuck in the house because of the heat and smoke scanning old photos, both mine and…

My Little Birdies Will Have Food This Winter

No one goes hungry — I’ve started clearing the sunflowers out of my front garden beds in anticipation of prepping them for this winter. I decided to have a feeding station out back, but I didn’t want to trek through any snow we might have. So I put up a fancy cast iron double shepherd’s…

My Garden is Producing

And I’m wishing my garden was bigger — It has gotten very hot here, in the 90s. My automatic watering timer puked and my poor garden took a hit. I was out at about 11 am yesterday and soaked everything. I will try and go out at dusk tonight to water again. …
