Morning everyone!

morning sean
how are you?

 

[igorsMistress]

yes, lots of work but i love hearing the jars ping, makes it all worth it, so far 20 something quarts of green beans(i have more plants growing that haven't bloomed yet) only 7 pints of beets(the biggest ones, have lots of little ones yet) thats it in veggies, my tomatoes are just starting to color, getting enough to eat on the table, getting lots of okra, radishes cucumbers , i froze about four gallons of blueberries and picking black raspberries, three pies and one cobbler from them, so have corn, tomatoes, more beans,more beets, and carrots not to mention lots and lots of peppers that i want to try to dry in the dehydrator, might try tomatoes in it too, the sky's the limit

Wow! Nice haul there

My dehydrator runs a lot. Most leftover veggies or fruit we can't use before it goes bad goes in. Roma tomato chips are a favorite snack.

Nice! That shouldn't be so hard on ya.

I go back to work tomorrow...only 5 days this time. Last week's 7 day stretch (ending with an 11.5 hour day) wiped me out.

Yep, 11.5 hour shifts are hard on the body and mind.

Yep, 11.5 hour shifts are hard on the body and mind.

They are helpful to the pay check though.

For just one short year of my life I was special and unique.

Ah Blooie, you know in your heart that you are special and unique, not just for one year.
This was a very specific, well defined, kind of special. Hard to let go of the life you led for that year.

How totally self-centered that sounds, and I hate it!

I’m sure I’m just overtired, and this will pass quickly.

Yep, time for a LONG sleep. Let it ease out.

Katie just sent me this video.

She's special too!

You can say that again. And performance drops off on those long shifts. Especially when they are multiple days in a row.
