Welcome back...

It's been far to long since I have visited this space. I thought I would post some photos from 2022 and some notes about the year.

January, the most exciting event was Mike retiring!

Our meadow in June, full of wildflowers.

Our raised beds were packed with vegetables and flowers. Most did well.

July ~ Mike finished our bluestone patio, it's so good to have this wonderful space.

Rearranged the living room and it works so much better.

August time spent at the lake.

October garlic harvest.

A stay at the Glen Iris at Letchworth to celebrate 40 years of marriage!

The greenhouse Mike is building me, started last fall. The windows and door are now being installed and we have high hopes it will be finished in time for some seed-starting.

Thank you for stopping by!!

Hello Deb! OMG, it is so wonderful to hear from you.
Congratulations on 40 yrs together. Congratulations on Mike's retirement.
The new patio is really lovely.
Your garden, as always, looks pretty good.
I'm sure I speak for so many others - you have been missed.
I think I remember you saying you have been taking care of the grands. That can be so (fun) time consuming.
Hope to hear from you again soon!

Mary Lea, so good to hear from you! How have you been?? I really appreciate your kind words. I am still watching the grandkids a few days a week, but now that they are getting a little older- two, four & four - I am hoping to have a little more time to post here--I've really missed my blog friends!

Oh how wonderful to hear from you again, Deb!
Congratulations on your 40th Wedding Anniversary, and your husband retiring. We are both "retired" also, sort of, my husband still enjoys working part time only 3 days a week. Still enough time left in the day to help pick up our grandsons from school when needed, now that we live close by.
Your garden and home look lovely. I imagine you may have found some windows to recycle for your green house, how exciting.

Melissa, thank you! It's very good to hear from you. And I want to thank you so much for your email at Thanksgiving!! It was very thoughtful of you, and I enjoyed hearing how you have been. Are you still making blankets for Project Linus? I'm sure you are probably busy creating something. Hope to see you back here in the near future.
