I took my camera out yesterday but it started pouring down rain about five minutes later so here’s about all I got. We thought we had a Bradford Pear tree outside the back door; imagine our surprise to find real pears growing on it. The squirrels (or other critters) got most of them so […]
I’ve been in the dumps lately because I’m so tired. Yesterday I realized (again!) it’s no good having the attitude of “I’m so tired, my brain’s so numb, I can’t do anything.” I knew I’d better snap out of it. Today is Day One of my new attitude. I’m trying to get back to my […]
