We paid a boy to fill our raised bed gardens this year , and it was so good to have the help!First time we have done that. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-9209749128431612532018-05-12T18:42:51.512-04:002018-05-12T18:42:51.512-04:00AWW, so glad you were able to spend the money to e...AWW, so glad you were able to spend the money to enjoy that chore done by someone else for a very long time.

So glad that you did that because, as you say, it sparked your creativity and ability to do what you can. I wish a dear one in my sphere were open to this. I fear that she’ll be placed in a nursing home for want of a little help. Everything looks very fresh and pretty.

A young neighbor boy was out looking for his cat one evening and I jokingly told him to give his parents an apology as my side of the fence had bushes that had gotten out of hand. He stopped short and asked if I was looking for some help. I replied, sure if he was looking for some work. He had to earn cash for some trip coming up. You don't find many industrious 11 year olds out there. Excellent young man, does a nice job. Now I just see him, twirl my finger around and say...um, the yard. Yup, yup I do it!!! <br /><br />mdoe37https://www.blogger.com/profile/03019276985594142350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-4716045655420233532018-05-12T12:13:43.268-04:002018-05-12T12:13:43.268-04:00I’m glad you were able to have those ladies do tha...I’m glad you were able to have those ladies do that chore for you!

Funny how that also jumpstarts a person on a few tasks that ARE within one's capabilities...)<br />The cabbage recipe sounds delightful. I may try THAT, also.<br />I'm being creative with leftover for our noon meal. I've warned husband and my father who lives with us that they'll never taste anything exactly like this the rest of their lives!<br />rebeccahttp://lifeandgodliness-rebecca.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
