Up the stairs carefully and so glad when building 8 years ago put two hand rails) up to loft to tackle ironing that has been on the board for months(moved from storage room for this project) 4 pair of white slacks will store until next Spring, ironed 6 pillow cases, 2 blouses, still 4 things will do later and have ironing board put back in storage room where I usually ironed but moved in front window because I like looking out the big window :)
Help yesterday "God Bless him" brought many plants inside as it is suppose to frost in a few days.
Last year plants on screen porch and lost 2 huge plants that I had for 25 years or more, like losing a special friend and also reorganized the garage - all the chores I did up until 2 years ago and now cannot (:
some in garage
Remember at one time 5 bedrooms, every bed dust ruffles, special pillows, they looked so pretty.
Now my bed room down stairs, guest room on loft. Continuing going through clothes, now one young granddaughter
is bigger then grandma and my youngest, I am not her style. But a lot of beautiful sweaters every
now and then they like. Sweaters over 50 years and realize that Cashmere always looks great and the older ones nicer then what you purchase now, have always taken good care of them and hand washed. Continue down scaling and want this cottage almost empty when my ashes are in the
garden....
Planned on short trip to town today but really do not like leaving this cottage, cool weather but when the sun is shining it is beautiful
an Iris a friend shares, blooms twice a year and is still going strong, I will cover and my special sign
says it all, time to start spegetti sauce :)

So tired tonight. I wonder if I am too old for back surgery. Would it even do any good? Wouldn't it be worth it, if only for a year or two of no pain?
Glad you had some help and isn't it nice to have an Iris that blooms twice a year!!!
Judy, so sorry, I know pain well. Take care of yourself
Hi, Ernestine! Hope you have recovered from your fainting spell and sore ribs and are feeling less pain now. Sounded like it was your elevated blood pressure that caused your light headedness, so I hope you have been successful in getting that lowered and keeping it under good control.
I wonder if you have a plan in mind for when getting up the stairs is no longer safe or feasible. I hope you have space downstairs that can be made into a bedroom when you might need that? We knew we needed a rambler (or ranch as they call them in the south/east), and we were able to find one we liked after several months. They do not have many out here like they do in the south. I did not want to have to move later so thought it best to start out in a home we could remain in. Just had a neighbor move to a rambler from her split level due to issues with her ankle and foot.
Since you have been doing a little cooking and ironing it seems like you are feeling better. Good luck with the test results. Please keep us posted on results. Sending many good wishes and hugs your way.
Lovely view out the window. to,iron by. Glad you had help with plants, etc. Winter is coming closer.
Love your header photo. The season of beautiful sunrises is beginning. :-) I too imagine your view as you iron. Your cottage sounds so cozy.
I smile at your welcome comments.
