Written by Sue, Thursday, September 1, 2022, Sunny, hot, humid, just an ordinary late summer day 90's
Hello Everyone,
I am almost to ashamed to write a post, don't even know where to begin, I not only quit writing, I just dropped out of blogland, and all social media, once in a while I stopped by instagram or Facebook to check in on family and friends.
Usually folks know when they are taking some time off and post about it, I didn't know I was leaving until I was gone!....... So much for that for now!
Where to begin,
We had a wedding, Susan met and fell in love with a widower with three children, they were married in early April, the weather turned really cold, the day of the outdoor ceremony, it was held at a very dear friends home!
It was warm and sunny at the rehearsal! I can only imagine what she was thinking, like most brides they want everything to be perfect, and it was!!We all had kept up with the weather report!
The next day was cloudy and cold, but our hearts were so warm, and so happy for them! Her brother performed the ceremony, he is without a jacket because he took it off and placed it around the shivering bridesmaid's shoulders, who happened to be the grooms 12 yr. old daughter, she was such a trooper! I would have had more photos today, but was having a hard time downloading, hopefully soon!

We planted,
harvested, our vegetables,
preserved a lots of vegetables.
English peas~
Sweet corn,many more!
Each season,I try and learn something new in preserving food, we enjoy all kinds of soup, and eat it year round, especially when the weather gets chilly!~wink~ This is bacon and bean soup, it was so delicious, I say was' because it's all gone. Planning to make more real soon.
We also had a few bumps in the road, My precious mother had surgery, she is doing remarkably well, she has gone back to cleaning her own home, canning lots of vegetables, and is still baking goodies for her policemen, mailman and anyone else in her neighborhood! I absolutely am amazed at her stamina, if she would bottle and sell it I would be first in line. ~smile~
Mr P and I contracted a variant of covid in July, he did quiet well, however it has taken me a little longer to recover, but I am back to exercising and trying to regain my strength!
This is just a small portion of what we have been up to ,these past seven months, please bear with me as I try to catch up and journal our days here at Pear Tree Lane Farmhouse.

I thought you might like to see some cute photos.
We kept Zeke, while Susan and Chad were honeymooning, we already had other quests and since it had turned so cold we decided to make a temporary, makeshift nursery in the laundry room! He just didn't know what to think of them.
Once he realized they weren't going to eat him , he decided he wanted to get in the box and play, but they emphatically let him know that wasn't going to happen.
BTW.....Some of these same chicks are now crowing, others are laying eggs!
We are all facing uncertain times, be encouraged for we know who is in charge, and that is, our heavenly Father, the God, and greater of this universe.
Proverbs 15:3! The eyes of the Lord are in everyplace, keeping watch on the evil and the good.
Until next time
Love,
Sue
