a group of musicians who played music with my late hubby helped us when he became unable to do yard work. they spiffed up the yard and built him a work bench in the garage. i provided food and drinks.
I know we are suppose to be telling about our gardens and such. But I also was greatful when a group came driving in to split fire wood, clean gutters, cover outdoor faucets and get us ready for Winter, when my late husband was so very ill. I could see his concern of not being able to do these things fade and his knowledge that I would be OK, when his time came, with the good friends we had.
Now for the garden. Why, do I always plant so many summer squash, that I'm hauling extras around in bags everywhere I go, giving them away? Ate our first green beans, along with a garden fresh salad and Wally World roasted chicken, last evening. So much fun walking by the Produce aisle looking at the prices and not having to buy.
