My summer garden is almost done. I still have tomatoes on the vines. I had so much I couldn’t give away any more! Lol I’ve turned my chickens loose in my garden. Hopefully they’ll eat what is leftover. What they don’t eat, the wildlife this winter will. I’m slowly putting away my garden chairs and barbecue grill and Bird baths.
It’s time for me to start my fall garden. I’ve already planted lettuce and beets. Radishes too. My fall bulbs arrived today so hopefully next weekend I’ll be able to plant them. (Recovering from RSV this weekend) So many tulips and daffodils! I kind of went crazy! It’s also apple picking time. Though my mobility is still somewhat limited, I am able to get up on a ladder and pick. I have so many recipes. I want to try recipes that I found on TikTok! (My Garden and chickens are on TikTok) I have two little granddaughters, who love to help me, bake and sample the goodies! It’s also transition time clothing wise. I bought some new fall clothes that I am just dying to wear! Loose long blue Jean skirts w plaid flannel tops. Plaid wool long skirts with solid corduroy jackets. I love love, love, fall clothing! I even found fall-colored sweatpants! I kept several of my pumpkins out of my garden, so that my granddaughters and I could carve. I bought special stencils that look just like cookie cutters! You arrange the ones you want for eyes and nose and mouth, and then pound them into the shell. The seeds are all going to the chickens or the garden! Can I mention fall, scented candles? Oh, my God! I have them in my house and at my job. I love the fall scents! One of my favorite smells is campfire. My husband built a small fire pit in the backyard. Next year it’s going to become a water garden so this fall is the last fall that we can enjoy it at that location. (I had gravel laid out behind my shed, against my woodland area, where the new fire pit is going to be built.) I’m so excited to start having fall fires this year with our family and friends. And I love the leaves turning colors! Each year I take my granddaughters to our local national park and teach them about the trees. I now that they’re a little older I can teach them more than the difference between deciduous and evergreen, lol. I have all kinds of crafts to do with them With leaves! And people nearby, now save all their bag leaves for me! They even deliver them to my house. I keep them for a year or two in my back area. And then I fill my garden beds with them. Those people always come by in the summer and pick from my garden whatever they want. It’s a win-win situation for all of us! I have to ready up my garage to be a winter home for feral cats. My city where I live is lower income. Many people don’t have the money to help animals, so I’ve been working with our local humane agent and our city’s police department on abandoned and abused in the collected animals. I want to set up my garage in the winter time for the feral cats to come in. We can trap them, neuter or spay them, and after they spend some time in recovery in my basement, that I will set up as a pet hospital recovery room, they could be released back into my garage. We don’t keep our cars in the garage. I had all my garden stuff stored in my garage, but since I bought my garden shed, the garage is just gonna sit there empty. So fall time is when I start creating my feral cat community!

As I sit at my computer leaving messages I see 7 trees in my direct line of vision.
I can see at least 5 different kinds of trees out my two windows and autumn is the time for them to fall but the beauty of those trees all turning different colors at different times is awe inspiring. Day to day and week to week I can see them change with the seasons and as they turn or fall the two huge evergreens stand their ground and give shelter to our many birds passing in the fall going south for the winter or squirrels when they venture out for food and need a quiet place to eat. Nature has so much beauty if we but pause and admire her gifts. ty Mother Earth for but one of your special gifts. I don't have to go to the park on cold blowy days I can just turn my head and admire the snow, the stillness, the bluejay and cardinal looking for the feeders that keep them going through storms along with the squirrels who must share now. |

I'm loving fall fruits. I came home with some beautiful apples and these grapes... oh my delicious goodness! (Moon drops)
