Good
Morning! I think it is summer
again. The next couple of days are going
to be around ninety degrees. Not sure
what happened to fall. At least it isn’t
quite as humid as summer. We are still
in a severe drought. There is no rain in
sight. Most of our grass is dead and it
crunches when you walk on it. I am
really concerned about our trees. Not
sure how many of them will survive.
I
have finished Christmas shopping and everything is wrapped and ready to
go. I did not make any gifts this
year. With all my “head” and “eyesight”
problems I just couldn’t work on anything without getting a headache and
getting sick. Maybe next year.
Yesterday
I went to Kroger. Today I am home doing
laundry. I went out to the shed and got
the sheets and blanket for Jana so I will be washing them also. I need to get to SAM’S and I am hoping that
Renea and I can do that tomorrow. Today
is Kevin’s day off, and I notice he is down in the woods on his tractor. I also heard the chainsaw so I am assuming he
is cutting up the tree he had taken down.
This
morning (Saturday) Renea and I went to SAM’S while Kevin continued working in
the woods. After we got home and emptied
the car bringing in all of our groceries I ate lunch. After lunch I took my camera and went down to
the woods to get some pictures of Kevin’s progress. And, wow, he is making progress. I will be putting a few pictures on
karsakerfarm.com if you would like to check them out. Since it is a blog some
of you may have to type karsakerfarm.blogspot.com. In one area he got down to the creek. Since we are in a drought he can get down
there with the tractor and not get stuck.
I thought our property stopped at the creek, but it seems we go at least
sixty feet further.
He
has several huge piles to burn, but again since we are in a drought that will
have to wait until we get some rain. He
has a deer stand down there, and plans to move it. We know we have deer in the back yard. We also have coyote, squirrels, birds,
snakes, etc. I think we are going to have
to take a class on trees. We know oak
and maple trees. We also recognize
magnolia trees. Some of these trees are
huge.
I’m
about done for today. I did my physical
therapy which, of course, leaves me dizzy, etc.
I have had supper and the dishwasher is running. Time to call it a day.

It just amazes me how those kitties can get to such high places! We will be near 80 again tomorrow. It's going to be November for Pete's sake, I'm done with the 80s. I want my cool brisk weather please! This is my first year where I've made everyone's Christmas gifts. I'm sure the grandkids will be disappointed...I usually give them cash. The two youngest will still get toys. Oh well.
