Just a Quick note.

Yes, I'm still here. It's after midnite and hubby is asleep on the couch. He got Gracie to sleep watching HI HO [Disney sing a long]. She's on the big bed and Timmy is upstairs in his bed.
I've been busy putting up applesauce, some with redhots in it for Timmy. I'll post my canning list when I get all done with everything this fall, still have pears coming up then maybe I can breath easier. Last week I had maybe 3 bushel or more sitting on the livingroom floor, all in boxes and bags. I'd put them outside at night to keep them cool then haul them back in in the morning and cover them up with blankets to retain the cold. That was a job, they were heavy. It made me weary just to look at them. The big wind storm we had blew them off of the neighbor's trees and there were so many on the ground I couldn't walk without stepping on them. It was a loss for them but a God send for me. They said I could pick up all I wanted, so I did, nice big beautiful, worm free apples, BEAUTIFUL. There were maybe 6 or 7 different kinds so I mixed them all up for applesauce. He grafts his own trees, has 3 different kinds growing on one tree. They also gave me a good amount of red plums and 2 flats of good purple plums. Made some jam and canned some after sharing with mom.
Had a break today from cutting apples. Cleaned house, Jenny made supper and brought it over for Kenny's birthday, big 57. Made two fresh apple cakes this week, one for Kenny and one for the freezor. Gotta get off this chair, my back is screamingggggggggggg! Nitie nite.
