Today, Saturday, April 24th, is a gorgeous, fresh day after the rain cleansed everything yesterday. It smelled better outside and it was a joy to breathe the air. I made sure Kaja did her business, and I picked it up, and then we walked down into the lower part of the cemetery. It is...

Today, Saturday, March 27, looks like another beautiful, sunny day. It’s amazing how a few sunny days can make us feel better, help us forget the long, snowy winter, and put a new perspective on our life. Anything seems possible in the sunshine, and it usually is, if we just get out and do...

Another spring is almost gone, and I haven’t finished up in my yard. On the other hand, I don’t think I’ll ever finish up because I am always changing plants and locations in my yard. I have done a little this weekend and last weekend, which was Memorial Day weekend,...

Another Saturday with rain this morning. I can’t believe all the rain that continues almost every day. It is getting very discouraging especially when I am trying to get my yard cleaned up from winter. It seems that when I have time to get out in the yard, it is raining and when the...

It was another rather quiet month for me. I find that I am pretty well recovered from my December knee surgery, and yet I have had to realize that it will be a while before I am able to do everything as before. I went out in to the yard on our very warm...
