It's A Jungle in Here

Gorgeous light this morning....in the high 30s.

Talk about bed hair......

So peaceful.....

Little Wonder and I finished the series I have been watching and I was not very productive for the rest of the day.  Gary and I are still coughing....using a lot of Kleenex.  How long does this last?  Fortunately I don't have a fever and my sinuses are not achy.  That throat tickle does not give me a break.  I cancelled my Chiro appointment and music for tomorrow.

I did have a nice chat with my friend Sandra (Minnesota) and that was my upper for the day.

Gary was kind enough to bring in all that plants that were on the kitchen porch as it could get in the low 30s tonight.  Unfortunately it was late afternoon before I started taking pictures so they don't show up very well.  They should be putting plenty of oxygen into the rooms.  The ones that spent the summer outside grew like crazy (hibiscus).

So huge for this space.

By the way....I made the very worst dinner I have ever made in my life. Had a cauliflower and wanted to turn it into a cheesy cauliflower soup for dinner.  Try that without using salt or bouillon.  Yuck!  Will never do that again!!!!

Night all.

 

All Hands On Deck

Low 40s this morning!

I did a little more mowing, Scott and Jenny brought his boat over to store it in the indoor, Ed came to mow the big pasture one last time, Gary did some work in the kitchen garden, Scott spent way too long putting a new belt on the old John Deere (Jenny assisted) and 

eventually we watched the Buffalo Bills game....which they lost.

Little Wonder slept through it.

Picked some fresh dahlias for the kitchen table.

Leftovers for dinner.

Gary and I are still coughing.

Night all.

 

Not There Yet, But Improving

I slept like a rock last night and when I woke up there was some beautiful light coming into the bedroom.

Eventually I got the lead out and went outside with Little Wonder to do some mowing.

Of course he immediately walked out to the back 40.

Jenny stopped up around 11 with some delicious chicken noodle soup....such a thoughtful kid!

The lawn turned out great.  Gary actually did a little hand mowing.

Once the lawn was finished I continued working on the pastures.

The raspberry bushes were loaded today and Gary picked a lot of them.

During the afternoon we both took it easy and I binged on a series.  We are both still coughing off and on but I am not nearly as congested.  Just using Vicks....no meds.

I made a very different dinner.  Parboiled a big chicken breast, shredded it... tossed it with some sauted peppers and onions.....threw in 4 Tablespoons of of hot honey sauce and put it in the oven.

It was a gorgeous night and cooled back down.  The plants are going to have to come in tomorrow.

In addition to the chicken....we worked on any leftovers in the frig.

I had 2 TBSP of beans, 2 of Mac salad, and 2 of jello with carrots and walnuts. One weird combo but it tasted great.

LW is looking at me like he wants to go outside.

Night all.
