My pesky neighbor has gained weight and it's that time of year for our "fat chicks" diet contest. Those two things have collided and the result is that we're taking evening walks (with just a little arm twisting of Mr. Pesky Neighbor). I'm now eating smaller portions...
Nothing screams nerd like wearing a bush hat paired with a Star Wars t-shirt. I had to laugh. And take a photo, of course. 😉 No doubt about it... Perry was out there gettin' it done. He cares not one little bit if anyone -- including me -- thinks he can be a bit...
I haven't shared a sunset photo here for awhile, and tonight's sky view wasn't half bad. Nature's privacy fence doesn't let me even see the home of those pesky neighbors unless I'm on the top deck. But here's proof it's still there! I realize that view would look...
Pro garden tip: Plant Cherokee Purple tomatoes! Initially grown by Cherokee Indians, their seeds have been unchanged for over a century. And they taste amazing!! I was a bit skeptical before eating the ripened tomato that looks a bit more black than it does purple....

Perry's day was awful yesterday -- but not nearly as bad as it was for others... One of his employees had a son that will never come home. Her 19 year-old was shot and killed in Louisville. Another employee offered to fill in for her but then his uncle died. The...
We had close neighbors when we lived in Seymour -- great neighbors. There was never a property dispute or noise complaint. In 10 years, we only had 2 challenges. One was when a neighbor knocked down my bird feeder from our tree that they felt caused bird poop in their...
Perry picked up a bucket of KFC chicken once his work was over on Friday. He ordered white meat only. The person taking his order let him know they'd need to check to make sure they could fill the order without a wait. They came back and said they could. Legs and...
