Now the good news!

It's been an AWESOME month of weather so far! We've now had 5 day's in the 80's in a row. More than 4 days in the 80's for October hasn't happened since 1991! I need to get out and pick raspberries tomorrow and tomatoes. I'm awfully glad that I didn't pull my tomatoes yet! They're still ripening quite well! The last couple of nights have actually been close to 60. That's practically unheard of for this time of year. I'll take it though! Now to get out and plant some lettuce and broccoli and hope that we get a winter that will allow it to winter over!

I had my apple trees cut down last week, as well as the butterfly bush. Thank you Craig!!!! I just don't have time to deal with the apples and they were making a huge mess on the lawn. Next year I'm planning on planting some wildflower seeds where the trees were. Maybe some hummingbird friendly plants. Every year I have 3 hummingbirds show up.

I love a thought that was shared at lunch Sunday. All the stuff we have.... it's just dust! Some of it is sparkly dust but in the end it's just dust. If my stuff were to burn it'd turn into ash, ash is ultimately dust! It breaks down in the soil and turns to dust. Some stuff seems like it shouldn't be a problem however if it's something my Father has said wouldn't be a good idea then it IS a problem. I really have too much dust!  Another thought with dust is it tends to get into the corners and cracks. Little seeds of discontentment, unrest etc. can get into those corners and cracks, take root and grow into huge issues. Those types of emotions cause division with my Father. I love that I can safely leave all in my Father's hands!
