Happy Birthday Winnie Jo....

I am so glad we got to know you these past years....Thank you Patsy, for starting the Blogs...You know Pat,  you are the reason we all have blogs.

I am moving up to Clayton's  house. I slept here last night. I came up here to can apples and just stayed. So Fleta has another non paying renter....She has a knack for finding those kinds of  renters.. But notice most of them are really great people. 2 out of 3, anyway!

There are a lot of wasps, Clayton's windows are so dirty you can not see out of them, and since the apples, his kitchen is a BIG mess....can we contact him from the grave to come clean up a little. Pat you know a lot of strange people from blogging...Know anyone that can contact dead people.

Betty is going to come up someday. She keeps putting it off...

BTW...all I have here is my bed.....does anyone have any furniture to get rid of...Have truck (George'...and probably George's gas) will haul..LOL

George goes back to a doctor today. Hopefully his chest is better.

Hannah, Robert, and Emmie are just fine...Anyone that goes to the Carroll County Fair look at the exhibits....Robert's last year's teacher, entered Robert's Sunflower in the fair! I guess it was pretty big!

Busy Tomorrow...

I bought 2 bushels of apples today. They are small but the price was right.  A tart apple. Not sure of the kind. Tomorrow I am canning apples at Clayton's. I stoped by there tonight and dropped them off.

It was harder to go through the house than I thought it would be. I sure miss our Brother. Both of them.

I will start early, Betty...Do not worry about me getting to hot! I have Fleta's fan to take up there. The front porch is nice till afternoon.

If we had had tomatoes this year I would be filling the jars with them!

Happy Anniversary Bill and Kimmie

they were married on this day in  2007....

It is hot here. My air has been running non stop since 3:30. Temp said 97 at 4:00. The sun will be behind the trees by 7:00. Then it will be much cooler. I went to JR's to do a few things. He leaves his air on all of the time. So I soaked up his air till 3:30.

Well, it is August in Arkansas.

Sunday..Janet's Birthday...

 Fleta, the two kids, and I went to church today. The Coin church is really small. They do seem to cater to the children there....and I like that....

Then I took Sam and Emmie to Denver creek. while we were gone JR fixed the window on my car....It would not roll up or down....Something had broke or come loose. He drilled a hole in the piece that was faulty and it fixed it... Robert said, "Uncle George, are you trying to be a real mechanic?"  He is a cute, cute boy...and he went up on stage at church with all of the other kids to sing. He did not want to, but he went with no ill words.  And he was very cute!

I called ole Tony today and had some good laughs!  He is always a joy! He said for Fleta not to worry because he will preach her funeral for free....I told him we would need a building to meet in....He said he had 2 empty turkey houses...I figure that would be large enough to hold all of Fleta's close friends... I am sure Cousin Winnie Jo is shaking her head when she reads this.

Then I washed the red car. As Missy said it will look great till you drive it, or the wind blows!

Well I have wasted more time on worse things.

I  picked 3 ripe tomatoes today. I only have the 3 plants. They still have new blooms on them... I guess as long as I water them I could have tomatoes till frost....Not many tomatoes, but tomatoes....

I am so ready for bed!

Blackwater Cleanout...

Today was the day....just keeping track.

The varmints have not touched my tomatoes again...I have 3 more almost ready to pick. I want to let them get good and ripe. Hopefully I will get them.

I'll bet Fleta is glad the weekend is here....To the rest of us Sister's it's just another day..

Don't forget Winnie Jo on the 27th....She will be a year older.

It has finally turned hot in AR...I guess it is time. We have had a mild summer and I am sure we will have a mild winter....Betty, do not rain on my parade...

The County Fair is this weekend. I will stay home. I imagine Emmy has talked JR into taking her. I do not know if Robert and Hannah will get to go. I doubt if Fleta is rearing to go.

I wrote Lane again today. I hope you are writing him, Betty.

Not much going on here. I do sit on the porch in the mornings. Not so much in the evenings.
