Wind on the weathervane Shawshank, July 30, 2020July 30, 2020 Since I got here, I've adopted a few chores. Like taking out the trash when it appears by the door. Vacuuming. Sous chef when needed, and each night I water the 3 tomato plants, the cucumbers, and the strawberries. Originally, the plants were my grammas, but she doesn't get around very well at all anymore, and can't navigate stairs while holding a watering can. Sometimes she'll go out and look at them, and complain that it's taking too long for them to ripen, and that all the cucumbers are dead. I can tell you that the cucumbers aren't dead, and they're about the size of dill pickles right now. Each night I'll water them (2 water containers – if it's just one, the tomatoes droop), I've been good at remembering to water them. I think my mom thought I forgot last night, and watered them this morning. More water for the water God! But right now, I really need some more coffee. Shady Acres is slowly starting to wake up. I'll let my gramma do her breakfast routine, and then I'll get another cup of coffee. This afternoon, I'll drop some more stuff off at the second hand store. The stuff I'm dropping off are some DVDs, and some books, I believe. I hope I'm helping enough around the house. Happy Thursday from TinyTown! Life

I gave Podrick some snuggles while I sat. He left shortly after, and I crawled back into bed. Someone in the night, can into the bedroom, and quickly slid my sleep mask… Read More
Life And if you try to hold me back I might explode August 31, 2021 You know it’s gonna be a good day when the alarm goes off, and your first thought is oh, I have to go to work today… But it’s sunny and a little breezy out. I think it’s going to be one of the last days that I’ll be able to… Read More
Life I had to put her six feet under and I can still hear her complain May 15, 2025 Podrick left me alone last night/this morning. Crystal says he actually snuggled in between us in the night. Of course he’s so small, I didn’t feel him. I slept undisturbed all night. I just wish that Crystal could sleep through the night as well. On the Pippin/Podrick front. Pippin isn’t… Read More
