Fall, my Favorite Season

I'm learning as I grow, I read, and tried, 1/8 tsp baking soda, tsp. dish washing liquid added to a gal. water, for powdery mildew on my veg's, but the next thing I noticed was all the leaves dying out.
We have had sooo much rain, even our 1 watermelon split in half, and it wasn't even ready to pick! I know the loss of one watermelon doesn't compare to the Farmers plight of too much rain. Oh well will try again next year. I am going to try a method I recently read about, using bales of hay. Its worth a try, cause whats left in the end is mulch!

Grans Ramblings :-)

Do ya ever get up to go do something, and think, what did I come in here for. Well depending on the room you find yourself in might help remind you. Of course if you find yourself in the Restroom, there may be something else reminding you why you came in there. We all just have such busy lives, like most women we feel we need to get it all done TODAY! I find myself leaving myself notes. Today I made a list of my meds, which is not a bad idea, but it helps. When speaking to a lady at the supermarket, she said even her 3 yr. old stops and asks herself, why did I come in here? Could this be a wake up call for us all, us overachievers, over doers, busy busy housewives. Are we influencing our children,By getting them involved in to many school activities or afterschool doings? Just a thought for today.
