I Did Something

Well, it's MyNews after all. I wish I could post here that I had made a sweater or something. I'm nearly finished with a pair of knitted socks. I actually put in a row on the sweater I started when I was having cancer treatments WAY back in February. These "accomplishments" of mine don't really lend themselves to great headlines. But I have been doing things. Soon I'll start posting pictures of this year's garden, which I think, looks FABULOUS. Also I plan to post pictures of my berry patch which has five strawberry plants, three raspberries, a blackberry, and a currant bush, none of which have died yet. So, major accomplishment there. I also planted three blueberry bushes, counting on the soil to be acidic enough for them not to die but I'm not placing any bets on that one.

All I'm saying is, that I'm doing stuff, even if things aren't getting finished enough for fabulous braggy headlines.

Plus we had a great Memorial Day, including a trip to my Great-Great-Grandma's grave here in Denver, and a VFW ceremony that we kind of stumbled into while we were there. Also some dang good hamburgers made by Seth.

Last night we visited the graves in Provo and Mapleton. It always gets to me--going to "Babyland" and all. Someone had put a clear silo drinking cup of water on every baby grave and put a sweet little colorful daisy in each cup. I took a picture of your little one's grave and when I get my act together, I will send it to you.

Elizabeth, I am glad your garden is doing well. Ours is doing so-so. The backyard here, where our garden is planted, doesn't get enough direct sunlight. That makes for plants that aren't doing so hot. Anyway, you are amazing! I look up to you for many reasons. Your strength and faith are two of them. Love you!
