I may have to ask Mrs. Wonderer some questions about plants-n-foliage at the Out West joint. I'm looking in the woods for things I can steal-n-transplant because that's really cheap. There are a lot of junk trees in those woods, but there is some decent hardwood stuff, too. I'm planting like I'm going to live forever, and fuck it all to Hell.


etm . . . .

Sure. We may have to go out there and scope it out!

We planted 125 trees thru a grant we obtained. But it was all near a creek for helping retain the soil. Pin oak, dogwood, sycamore, silver maple.

Mrs W is the plant rescuer and is always being back little baby trees and plants that we plant on our farm property.

 

[Wonderer67]

Whichever one was/is more prone to burn to embers.

Yes would be the answer I guess…

SUNDAY: Try to enjoy just being alive for the day, maybe just several hours or whatever time you can spare. Take that time to think, to regenerate, be selfish and do it for you. You're the most important person in your life. If you're not 100% you can't look after, help or love someone else who needs you. Those in your life as well as us here.... Love yourself, So others can love you too!!!!

Such true words ever written.

Without knowing that, I knew that. We have a crick at the bottom of the hill. I want to dam it a bit and do a mill wheel to generate power and to pump water up the hill for this-n-that. Maybe we'll need to Spare Trees from someone's/something's grant. I also think that we have a sprang. You know, wanna those wet thangs . . . .

I had a busyish day. Nowhere near as busy as @Wonderer67 or even @Missk_2022! But I'm steadily making progress. My kids will be here in 2 weeks! I'm so excited!

The tree is done. I made some glass globe ornaments; finished them today. Some went on the tree, some got packed up as presents. I also replaced the ribbon on two wreaths I made long ago. They were looking their age! Did a bit of cleaning up in the garage. Put the outside light boxes in their rack.

One of my ornaments. I used a Christmas pin:

The (loaded) tree. You can see the main village behind it. The mountain is beside the tree. I have village people skiers.

All I can think to say is WOW

 

[Wonderer67]

We just watched the last quarter of the Ohio state Indiana game.

Just wow…

One hell of a game.

 

[cole4258]

Good morning folks. Waiting for the caffeine to kick in here

Congrats to indiana...

That was a great game.

Ten pages behind. Not gonna catch up today.

We got a critter in the attic. Our exterminator came over and he and I rooted around…didn’t find dropping or any sign of tunneling. So, we either have a boog’ns in the attic or something has made it its home? Spent the better part of yesterday cutting back trees and looking for entry points…none found, but the landscaping looks great! Bonus an overgrown Holy Tree got clipped and I’m gonna make some Christmas decorations with the clippings and red berries.

SWMBO came flying down the stairs this morning in a panic, so we looked and listened. I swear it sounded like a bear up there! Literally something walking…not scurrying…heavy sounding steps….

Time to lock and load…

Everyone have a great Sunday, stay warm, recover from illness and surgeries, and drive safe out there. it’s a mad mad a mad world…

Paraphrasing one that I stole...

"We will have a true society, when men plant trees they know they'll never enjoy the shade of."

My grandfather planted trees for the government in New Hampshire in the late 1800's and there still there

And some boudin on there as well

Yes, in addition to some chicken/spinach/feta sausage and burgers, which wouldn't fit on the first run.

 

[RoperTrace]

How am I on here 20+ years and just seeing this thread for the first time? Maybe I've aged out, since I just hit the big 7 5.

Afternoon, Spoonies
This up at the crack of dawn on a Sunday is for the birds.

Up again to pee

Well, the timing is sus but you're working out that fluid from the IV with each trip.

I'm steadily making progress.

Your holiday decorations are fantabulous!!
My mother would have loved to stop over for coffee at your place this time of year.

It was a "time factor"... coming down to a choice of food or rest, so I opted for the rest.
BTW, it was a good choice, as I awoke to a huge, excellent potroast!

Win Column!

I avoided Big Hair.

Either one works just fine for me.
Is it warm in here?

Kitten ball.

Clowder Clatch?

I've been tired of late. This whole process is tiring. At least we turned one page and now the end is in sight.

Win Column And then... a nap!!

Yes sir!... I've been feeling the kind of tired that sleep, really doesn't cure, but man, if I were you, I'd DEFINITELY follow the cats' lead on this one!!!

When in doubt... always go for the nap!

You have beautiful baubles!

Is that a euphemism?!?

Truth
So eloquently said, too.

I will be visiting my friend in the hospital. He cannot move. Don’t take anything for granted. Like walking, writing your signature. Eating. Texting.

Hope you have a good visit!
The human body is amazing... but fragile

The actual settling of the estate has been a shit show. I won’t go into details. It’s bad.

I am so sorry!! Hugs and shots all around

Up x 3 last night gonna try to go back to sleep

See? @Lilianna23 and @Oldermom935 are right... that water weight is already coming off.

I was trying to catch up but couldn't.

I was a good 8-10 pages behind yesterday... got all caught up and halfway through my catch up when the browser burped and I lost it all It Happens

The nurses are what helped me stay sane.

Glad you recovered and had a cracker jack nursing team to help you along!

But more of the same substandard product??

Gotta stay positive. Surely it would be from a different batch? One that was seasoned with an appropriate amount of Pucker Factor?

That’s a ten cent word there! Maybe even 15 cents!!

I guess… I honestly don’t think I’ve ever heard it before!

50 Cent Word - inflation being what it is and all

Not using it when applicable is deleterious to your missive's ability to talk down to the recipient.

Quite so!

T34/76 or a T34/85?

I worked on a tank in the Air Force. We wired it up for remote control to be used as a target for testing.

Road trip!!!! I will bring a shovel

Just what kind of a road trip are you planning, girl?

I swear it sounded like a bear up there! Literally something walking…not scurrying…heavy sounding steps

I'm sure it's nothing to worry about
