Sandy has passed

My sister in law after a decade long battle from brain cancer has passed on, she was one brave, strong woman to endure all that she did.

Hard to write anything else :( but I will try.

My mother had back surgery yesterday. She had a disintegrated disc in her lower back and they fused the ones below it. She had been in severe pain for months and kept sending her to the pain clinic for shots and etc. Then they finally looked to see what was really wrong, when that is the first thing they should have done. Sheesh.

The weather was cool last week 50's and low 60's and this week it is mid to high 70's. Next week we are supposed to be back to the 80's again, bleck.

We have been working in the garden, weeding you know. never ending.

Sometime this week we will be butchering the meat birds. I don't know if we will do them all in one day but most likely all 24 of them.

That hail again.
The nearly golf ball sized hail did a real number on our trees. There go the apples this year and it shredded our 2ed growth of rhubarb to pieces. The maple trees also look pretty bare now.
The State shop had windshield smashed out of the trucks and dented things up real well. They are 2 and 1/2 miles away and the hail was even larger there.

Over and out for now.
