Working in the Pineapple Bed Again

I got up close to 6:00 a.m. and dressed for work.  I got on the computer and chatted with Travis via Skype.  I lost my internet connection while in the process of posting my blog.  I was trying to figure out how to change the title on one of my You Tube videos.

This morning I weeded the other side of the fence row.  The plants on this side are Strawberry or Cherry Guavas and Beech Cherries.  I am praying without ceasing that I do not EVER see a snake.
At 10:00 I went up to the new pineapple bed and put our chopped up mulch down the center aisle.  Every time I stood up I would be very dizzy and my feet were feeling all arthritic.  It's all good.  I persevered and made it fine.  John had built up the bed with extra topsoil to make it level.  Then he added organic fertilizer with chicken manure, compost, and mulch.

For lunch I had papaya, tamarillo, custard apple, avocado, coconut, and passion fruit.  I didn't want my banana.

It was sunny today so after lunch I sat in the sun and read my lesson about James C. Thomson.  Then I subathed until nearly 2:00.  The sun felt so good.

During consultation today we talked about my healing symptoms, hypnosis, and Bernarr MacFadden and some of the other people who used to have sanatoriums in the US.

I got some computer time from 2:30 to 4:30.  I typed up one of my lessons, wrote my blog, uploaded some pictures to Facebook and listened to a sermon.

Supper tonight was tomato, avocado, lettuce, lime juice, 3 dates and some pecans.  I spent the rest of the evening writing and practicing my flute.   Then I read in bed until way too late.

That's it for now.  Stay save and be happy.

Happy in the Garden

Yesterday I worked in the garden instead of walking around the neighborhood.  It is a different feeling. It's true that I only got in about 6500 steps by the end of the day instead of over 10,000, but it was a different feeling.  Travis planted some tomatoes and peppers, I cleaned the lower deck and pulled some weeds.  Lucy dug in the dirt and felt so happy.  I felt the same way. Working in the garden makes you feel happy and productive. I was puzzled by a plant growing in the herb garden as a weed.  I started pulling them out but decided to check if they are edible.  Edible weeds, such as dandelion,  can be used in our smoothies.  I put a picture on Facebook to ask for help identifying the weed, and the consensus is that it is plantain.  Some say edible and some say not, but I am inclined to think that it is edible.  My brother, Max, lives up in the mountains, and his neighbor says it is edible and the smallest leaves are best with...

The Lou Corona Story

Yesterday, we went to Magic Springs with our daughter, son-in-law and three grandchildren.  The landscaping there is beautiful this year.  This one little flower didn't let a little concrete stop it.     Lunch today was three bananas which I ate about 1:30.  I'm letting my body rest a little bit after eating too much food the last couple of days.  I did domestic chores today.  But Travis made a trip to the City Compost Facility for another load of compost.  We'll use it on the trees we still have left to plant. We have a volunteer tomato plant coming up in one of the garden beds.  It's doing pretty well, too.  I have it on my to do list to buy some more tomato cages. The arugula I planted is up. The kale Travis planted is up. The new plum tree is planted. Here is a volunteer Poke Salat that came with the blueberry plant.  Travis planted some more blueberries in the blueberry row that lines our driveway. The...

Alko Shredder

 It was chilly this morning, but I got out and worked a bit in the garden bed that had the strawberries moved out yesterday.  I fed it with the mineral supplement and fertilizer.  I started putting on compost, but ran out of time before I finished.  We are going to plant some kale in this bed. Bed #3 weeded, minerals added, fertilized, and partly composted. Travis and I went to an estate sale today.  First thing we saw was a garden shredder.  We bought it for $60.00 and brought it home.  There are lots of leaves in my yard that could be shredded. Our new used Alko shredder...made in Germany.    For dinner tonight I made a soup.  The inspiration came from Dara Dubinet on her You-tube video, but mine was different because I used what we had. My vegetable soup recipe:  Juice a beet, 6 carrots, 3 broccoli stalks, and a sweet potato.  Then heat a pot of water on the stove, but do not boil.  In the Vita-Mix, put 3 med...
