Sod Quest


Today we cut our lawn in half. We got this bright idea to cut the sod. What A job! We only had 3 hours to do it in(the sod cutter was $80 for 3 hours)and Boy! were we beat! Afterwards, we went to donate blood and Dad's heartbeat was too high to donate!(just barely) I teased him and said that I worked him too hard! He just had to take an aspirin too! Guess I did! (my back aches and Dads toe is paining! he stubbed his toe 3 weeks ago and he thinks he broke it!It sure is causing lots of problems! He can hardly walk, sometimes--like now.) Boy! I'm afraid that the easy part is cutting the sod! What are we up against now??? We have to get some people to come and take the sod away for us- but we will if noone wants it. I hate to do it, though.

Peaches


For FHE, we decided to can some peaches that we got in Utah. First time in quite a while! ( We picked up some early peaches when we picked up the bike in Utah) We forgot how and so we looked it up on the internet--had to buy a new canner because I threw mine away because I just knew that I never wanted to go to ALL that work again! Now , you should see the nice peaches on our little scrawny tree! But I'm worn out!
