How?


How the hell do blogger do this everyday? Maybe it is just my attention span! But I am trying to get back on track with everything. Getting organized with time is my most important project right now. I am back to making a daily list, and doing very well at that. Back to normal meals again. With all the tasting of the food I made, I never ate real meals. Bad habits, lost weight I did not need to loose. Anyway... Started going thru seed catalogs, I need to decide what I want to grow this year. Garden will get bigger, so will the pumpkin patch, and the sunflower bed. Then along the garage. And one barrel will be bush blueberries, and if I can get a hold of another one, bush cranberries. The herbs did so well in the barrel that I will not change that one. Paste Tomatoes, cukes, dill, zucchini, peppers, onions, chives, carrots, beets, and a few other different things I found. A foot along that fence gets no sun, I would love to get the garden all the way to the fence, but it would be wasted, better to leave it like it is, just make it longer, and one foot wider on the house side, more room for the wall of cosmos's. Along with pumpkins a few mixed gourds. and I think that is all that will get done.


I have all the stuff to redo the light stand. Get that ready, as soon as I take the tree down and organize this living space again. That is my problem, the house feels dis-organized right now, and it makes me feel lost. Getting back on track bit by bit.


Not very interesting... Blogging is a bit boring. The sad thing is I do have allot of idea's and opinions, I am interesting. Just have a hard time focusing on one idea at a time, I am a rambler. Jumping from one thing to another. I have mini projects started on my face book, on this blog. I have no excuses, right now I should be using my time wisely, getting things done ... be the doer I want to be. I have a bit of a mess to clean up the first of the year... Once that is taken care of, life will go on hopefully slowly and smoothly for awhile.

A Perfect Day

Image
It is foggy and dark outside. A perfect day to let the mind wander. It is a full day of Julia Child today, that's been fun this morning. I will get to the movie, maybe this week. Julie & Julia I think it's called. But I learned the secret of popovers! You learn something new everyday. Don't use a pan, use separate custard cups, leaving room between them for the heat to circle, and that is what will make them really pop up. I think I will make some on Monday, I will be home for dinner, so I will make popovers and a shrimp salad. I will be able to use fresh peas. And I am making pesto, Have everything I need, think I will freeze in ice cube trays, then use when needed. And If I want fresh pesto, I only need to buy a container of basil, add a few ice cubes, made it stretch. Pick Sage to dry also, and I have a sage that is getting crowded out, gonna have to move that baby to it's own pot. And with this rain, weeds are growing again. I am hoping Monday is a sunny hot day
