Unbelievable find in a penny bank

I have had this bank since Bob passed away four years ago. It was in his office. I was completely surprised and touched by the message I found inside.

There was one wheat penny, so only one collectible coin. Still, the money wasn’t important. It was the message that touched my heart.

Bob continues to surprise me.

I will love and miss you forever.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Working at cleaning off rust

Rust in well water is a part of life in this area of Wisconsin, and so is freezing weather.

I had taped some of the sink before dripping water during below-zero temperatures.

Now I’m trying to clean off the rust that coated the sink.

Next time I’ll use more packing tape if I run water at night.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Lost shopping list

When memories aren’t sharp, a person writes things down, like a shopping list. Too bad lists can be left behind.

My cell phone is usually with me, but listing groceries there isn’t the best for me.

At least after this mishap, I’m sure to remember my list the next time I go grocery shopping.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.
