June 21, 2022 Not online, not even checking email. Just don’t care right now. Handling a multitude of situations, don’t want to talk about it. Also doing the Lord’s work, of which I probably have 4-8 more weeks before I’m done. So… I have extremely limited time for anything outside of what I listed above. Thanks for understanding. Blessings. P.S. You may either comment or not. Just know that I’ll probably not approve comments for several weeks. This blog uses comment moderation.

Update on the comment tech issues
May 1, 2022 Just a quick note. I have a lot to do this week. Connie at Far Side of Fifty wins the award for figuring out how to correct the commenting issue. She changed a setting on her blog to POP-UP instead of embed and now everyone can comment on her blog. If you’re having issues on your Blogger site, switch from whatever you have your comments doing to the POP-UP and see if that helps. Thanks, Connie! *applause* Everyone have a blessed week!

NOTICE: Your blogs have comment tech issues
April 28, 2022 This blog post has been PRE-SCHEDULED to publish on this date as I’m in the middle of handling a lot of things for the next couple of weeks or so and will not have time to be online. Thanks for understanding. I’ve noticed there are A LOT OF US who are trying to comment on your blogs and are unable to do so because Google rolled out (and is still in the process of rolling out) a new commenting platform. If you use Blogger as your blogging platform, you need to contact them and let them know your regular visitors are unable to leave comments. I’m one of them. I stopped using Blogger a couple years ago (for a different reason), but…
Spring gardening and some history
April 21, 2022 We’re finally seeing actual signs of Spring all of a sudden. And I do mean sudden, because one day there was ugly brown and the next was a total change. The grass and trees are greening, daffodils are blooming, I’m jumping for joy … haha, yeah, for real. I haven’t seen much in the way of tulips or hyacinth for some reason. There doesn’t seem to be as many in folks’ yards this year. I don’t know if there are any at the stores and garden centers since I have no way to get there. If you’ve been visiting me for any length of time (as in “years”), you know I’ve been gardening all my life. Living in an apartment building the…

And now he’s four
April 12, 2022 Aero turned four years old on April 3. I can hardly believe how quickly the time has gone by since that 10# baby boy came into our family. This is Aero at 9 days old. John wanted to get a Dairy Queen ice cream birthday cake, but they aren’t doing those right now and the prices have become outrageous anyway. So, he asked me if I’d make the cake. Okay. And then John said, “It has to be a dinosaur.” Hmmm. I had to think about that a bit. I made a Cookie Monster cake for Jeff’s second birthday. And a Ninja Turtle cake for John when he turned twelve. Then a teddy bear cake for the fifth birthday of a friend’s…
