A helpful cat

I made Car-E wait until I had the groceries out before he could play with the bag.

He was anxious to have fun.

It is so much fun watching him.

Car-E is today’s entertainment.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.

End of season dahlias

The tubers can be left in the ground until it is freezing, but why wait? Better to work in nice weather.

Bob and I were often out in the cold digging up the flower bed. Our hands froze. Our noses ran. I hated those tubers because of the winter-like weather.

Not this year. I chose the last nice day to do this chore.

It’s no good to wait until the last minute.

I enjoyed my time with my flowers this fall because I wasn’t freezing.

Now I’m looking at a small package of tulip bulbs. Should I plant them? Or should I save them to force the bulbs to bloom mid-winter?

I planted a couple of fall bulbs, but when the snow flies I like to see growing plants. The rest will give me comfort in January.

I have a screw loose.

When you need glasses to see small things, it’s not fun having to work on your glasses.

Makes fixing the glasses almost impossible unless you can find friends to help.

Everyone at coffee today tried to put the tiny screw back in my glasses. First, Susan, and then Kris. Finally Kit fitted the newly purchased screw back in place.

Thanks to all my friends, my glasses are back together.

I CAN SEE AGAIN!

Blowing leaves

Don’t get dizzy watching this video.

I’m behind a railing on the upper deck as I use a blower to empty the rain gutter.

Standing on this deck is easy.

Going out through a window to get to the front deck and gutter isn’t easy. I’ll send one of my kids out there when they visit.

There are still a lot of leaves to fall so this will have to be done again and maybe again after that.

I love trees except when leaves gum up gutters.

Stir fry supper

Frozen veggies went into the pan for my stir fry. I think I should have used a larger pan, but it all cooked up even in this pan.Lots of veggies, but no onions so I chopped up some from my cupboard.

I added some cooked shrimp and put it all over brown rice.

A perfect combination for my supper.

Until next time, that’s it from Sunnybook Farm.
