Well, you have heard of people with an 'honest face'. NOT mine.

Yeah, we got the Spring Teaser the other day. Slight snow here also. Can't wait to try out new riding mower!!!!!
Evening everyone...
Yesterday, the woman who has been driving me to shop for more than 5 years now, in spite if being told not to do this during quarantine, came to take me, as a "friend", not as a client. I needed to stock up for the month and get the required money order for my rent...still a sore point with me that no matter what, I have to go out and get a money order or certified check from the bank instead of payment made in any other way.
I'm beginning to think I will never feel safe going out again... She arrived attired in the same manner as I was...mask and gloves...with a container of disinfectant wipes and extra hand sanitizer if it were needed. We went early, they were only allowing a certain number of people in the store at a time...and everyone was observing the 6 ft. rule until....I went to check out!! The donkey who got in line behind me, only had a dozen eggs in his hands, so not even a cart to separate us, was not wearing a mask and kept crowding up behind me until he was practically breathing down my neck. I really wanted to scream "back the "f" off!", but instead turned and said..."Are you having trouble distinguishing six feet Sir?" I scurried the heck out of the store, but was thoroughly PO'd. What is wrong with the world that people can be so callous under the current circumstances? This wasn't some young kid, but a tall man with salt and pepper hair and a neatly groomed dark beard with white streaks in it. I should have asked his name so that I would know who is responsible for trying to kill people with carelessness!!
Nice propertyYou can help us break up the boredom any time you want with another little sing-song. Thanks
Nice looking mower. Just too small for taking care of my property. I just mowed 1/2 of it today. Dang it was cold outside today with an icy wind blowing. I thought I was mowing in December not April.
And I'm sad ... the Red Bud tree in the lower right died off over the winter. Not a single little bud on any of it's branches. Time to bring out the chainsaw and remove it. On a good note, it'll be one less tree to trim around.

If'n ya wanna try to save that tree, the have large fertilizer stakes you can try. When we moved in here 20yrs ago, I used them on two trees on my property. They went haywire with the Xtra nutrition, only problem was I did it mid year and they started freaking out - growing like it was Springtime lol. Tookem years to re-adjust to the proper seasons.You can help us break up the boredom any time you want with another little sing-song. Thanks

Remember when I said we were having such a pretty Spring because we haven't had any storms to mess up the blooms? Well, as I sit here writing this it's snowing and the wind is blowing like crazy. Ugh!!
When will this finally be over??
What's next, welding your doors shut? I hope nobody falls or dies in there, nobody would know until this quarantine is over.
A guilty pleasure that I will admit to is being a 'Survivor' fan since Season One ..

I've got a couple bandanas that I used to roll up, and tie around my head as sweat bands when I worked in my garden....don't know why I hung onto them... One could use any square of tightly woven cotton cloth and rubber bands if you don't have the ponytail elastics...
A bandana mask will work fine and here is a video for anyone who hasn’t seen how to make one.
Lastly, I put my Flag out on the pole yesterday .. just felt like it was a gesture in solidarity ..
...and I'm mostly alone and always been a bit of a loner...but by choice, not forced to be
She also said that I might need to be on oxygen!
Which is better than living like this!
Our town took a direct tornado hit from last night's storms. No serious injuries thank heavens, but lot's of property damage. We have some good sized branches down but compared to others we are good.
All I can do is pray and I'm definitely doing that!
I am so grateful to be able to come here and see how you all are doing!
Stay well, my friends!
