I spent the day shelling black eye peas. I made an interesting discovery, My husband does not know when peas are ready to pick. So tomorrow I will be in the garden bright and early picking the rest of the peas. I have three gallon bags in the fridge ready to blanch and pack away.
I have to say, in his defense, He has not farmed in years and as far as the picking I don't think he was involved to the extent I was.
As we walked the garden this evening, I realized the green beans and yellow beans are also ready to pick. Hey you can't say we are not getting enough vegetables to eat. We eat them every meal.
Tonight we finished off our meal with a fantastic Crenshaw. To say it was good is an injustice. It was like eating candy. It was so sweet.
I have several in the garden about ready to pick.
They are huge. I will take a photo as soon as I pick it. Later tonight we got hungry again and cut into another cantaloupe.
Once they all ripen we will be loaded with melon. Not a problem, we have plenty of friends to share with.
with all the trauma going on in our family I have to stay busy or become too upset. I find if I stay busy I have no time to think.
Again keep my oldest son and his family in your prayers. The situation they are in could always be worse.
Isn't it amazing how it can be any worse when you feel like the world is caving in? However we have a BIG God. He is in control.
Trouble in so much of the world, The Bible tells us of these days and to be prepared.
I sit and watch the news and hear of senseless bombing, senseless killing, All is senseless. All, I mean in the war also.
How can war be good? So many young lives snuffed out for what? Has anyone really looked at the situation and asked the right question? The question of what will happen when it is over, nothing changes. It never has.
You give a person a fish he has fish for one meal, you teach him to fish and he had food for a lifetime. we are failing to teach to fish, to take control of their own destiny.
Oh well, Not a thing I can do but pray for our men and boys.
It is getting pretty late so I will close and say Goodnight to all.
Sleep tight, dont let the bed bugs bite.
Love you, and this is me tucking you in, covers are nice and snug. As snug as my love for you.
