This is my fruity update

This is my fruity update.

This is the first time in many years that I covered an orange in cloves....and my downstairs is reaping the reward with the festive fragrance.
My basil is doing well. I can not wait to make some fresh pesto!

The lettuce is pitiful!

Check out the first tomatoes. Maybe after thanksgiving dinner these can be our new after dinner mints TEE HEE!

Thanksgiving joke:

What did the turkey say before it was roasted?

Boy am I stuffed.

Dad And His Exercises

Dad has been doing his exercises with these leg weights since 2003.
Now you might ask how did this come about? Dad got pneumonia that June and his Dr told him to go to the hospital....But NO!
Dad got VERY sick and was in a coma for 3 weeks.
Once he got out he had to go to rehab and learn to stand and walk again. He did it.
Since that time he works out each day with these weights.
Mom and I were bad we laughed at his exercises...You had to see them. I don't laugh any more because Mom is not there to laugh with me.

The point of this store is that last Friday dad forgot his leg weights were on and he got into his car to go to the grocery store....He thinks to himself Bob your legs are tired..I am really getting old.....I think I have to give the car to Suzie and she will have to drive me around.

He was also confused why his legs were so heavy during the grocery shopping.

He was walking out of the store all but dragging his legs.

Low and behold he looks down.....

There on his ankles are those leg weights.

He takes them off and taa daa a weight has been lifted from his legs.

Dad is telling me this story as I am driving down the road. Tears are rolling down my face. Then I ask the question...Dad did you have long pants on or short pants.

Shorts he replies...I can not even control my laughter.

If you notice in this picture Bo is even looking at him in amazement as once My Mother and I often did.

The Cinch Bug Attack

I take pride in my fathers yard. Saturdays I go there to play with Bo, help Dad. Have enough with helping Dad then I retreat out side to a calm and peaceful world.

A world where I can weed, plants things, and unevenly trim the hedges.
Then there was...THE CINCH BUG ATTACK!
It started as a small brown patch....then the next thing you know it is everywhere.
Yesterday was such a beautiful day to begin the battle.
Lets just hope I win.




Out of the blue came this single yellow plane that kept circling overhead. I believe he was giving me encouragement to fight the cinch bug battle.
It was as if each time he circled he was saying...Go Suzie Get Those Bugs, and restore that lawn back to its original beauty.
It was either that or the planes were practicing for the Stuart air show this weekend.
I do love my fantasies....Sue

WINDY!

WINDY!

My tomato plants are being beat to hell with the winds we are having.

I hope they make it!

Beach Glass Wind Chimes

Beach glass wind chimes.

I have been consumed with making new ones for ETSY, and the green markets.

Thought for the day:

Don't let your victories go to your head, or your failures go to your heart!

Have Fun...Sue

BAD DREAMS

I watched too many too many scary movies last night.

I ate too much candy, because I did.


I went to bed and dreamt that there was Halloween decorations on all of the roofs
in my complex, and you know the HOA would have no part of that!!!
The decorations caught on fire. the fire department was in the process of putting them out and they had to break into my patio...and I do not know why.
Oh yeah Micheal Jackson was in my dream too?!?

This was a bad, bad dream!

I will make calming wind chimes today...Sue
