Saturday!!

I just had to put Nattie cat on --as you can see she is right beside me at all times --on top of whatever I am doing.

This has been a busy week and a progressive one. I have helped with things that I like to do.
I took Farmer Man with me for a couple of hours the two days I went to the church to help. He did OK but if it had been any longer it would not have worked. Today he is all confused and i don't know why unless it was because it was different things we did. This morning he is asking about his mother and are we going to grannies?
This morning he is a little boy again I can always tell when he starts early in the day it will be a confusion all day long and get worse in the evening. I gave him a little job to get him thinking about something else. I let him try to sweep the living room and he did OK--- then I let him take the floor fan out on to porch and dust it now it is lunch time.

I'm glad he can be here with me and I hope it stays that way.

I went out and took some pictures before the frost gets everything. I hope I can do some special things for the coming Holidays. I love this time of the year.

God Bless,
Love Aunt Maria[marie]

Fall Beauty!!

I have been gone again for a while. I have finished my therapy and then had a tooth to give me trouble so this week I had that worked on.

I am glad we got the rain to clean things up from all the dust. The trees are looking beautiful from here on the hill. I also have to show you the grown guineas now they are so amusing. You should hear them when it is time for me to come out to feed them. They make so much noise most people wouldn't like it, but I do. You know they are an African foul and also they love each other a lot. The father helped raise the 10 young ones just like the mother. They all still stay together and love each other. When a hen hatches she is on her own the rooster doesn't even know she has his babies and doesn't care. The father guinea feeds the babies just like the mother and he never pecks them like a rooster will do baby chicks.

I thank God for the wonder of nature and life.

Farmer man is not feeling very well seems every day he tell me he doesn't feel good.
I would love to be able to make him feel good once again. I just give him his medicine and pray it helps. He goes back to bed now and sleeps more.
He still can come up with some funny tales and I just laugh at them. He still thinks there is three of me and most of the time he wants to know where I am at. We have deep discussions about me. It feels a little strange talking about myself as if I am someone else---See sometimes I laugh and tell him you get me all confused and he says well I am too. I live a funny strange life now but I am glad he is happy with me and I can take care if him and just live each day knowing God is in control and will guide me through it all.

Enjoy the beautiful fall weather.

Love,
Aunt Maria[marie]

Watermelon!!

This is the last of my garden --well I do have a few pepper plants with some peppers and some almost dried up okra. We have had no rain around here for a while and things are very dry and dusty.
Earlier this year I showed you a picture of my Moon and Star watermelons while they were still growing in the garden. These pictures I am showing you tonight are of the melon big and ripe. It was so heavy I could not carry it. I cut it up and shared it with our church last night. We had a benefit fish fry --I didn't get to go but did go by and pick up two plates from two sweet girls waiting on the side of the road with them. My daughters. I hope someone ate the melon and enjoyed it.
I have so many seeds that I saved I can plant an acre or more. These seeds are heirloom seeds that you can keep and keep seeding.

My shoulder is better and my therapy is almost finished. I will try my best to take care and not injure it again.

Farmer Man is not better he has been falling and I hope he doesn't do that again. He is still having therapy here at home. It does help and i am glad they can come here to do it. Memory is getting worse and worse. He is looking OK but I know he is not. He doesn't walk OK he stumbles and his legs are weak and I really don't know why.
He could have had another mini stroke.

He enjoyed the watermelon.

Love,
