MAY 6, ’18 OUR HEALING YARD & GARDEN!!

HELLO EVERYONE— I KNOW A LONG TIME NO BLOG!!!  I HAVE HAD MCS SISTERS ASK ME– DID YOU FORGET YOU HAD A BLOG???  ETC-ETC-ETC—- WELL NO-   🙂

WELL IT FINALLY TURNED SPRING IN THE FLINT HILLS OF KANSAS– AND ANY TIME WE ARE ABLE –WE ARE OUTSIDE WORKING OR ENJOYING!!!

I HAVE AN MCS SISTER WHO WORKS FOR A TEAM OF NATURAL DOCTORS & THEY HAVE A “HEALING GARDEN”  IN THE BACK OF THEIR OFFICE– AND AS SHE SAID TO ME AS I SHARED PICTURES WITH HER– ABOUT ALL WE ARE DOING & PLAN ON DOING — SHE SAID—–  SIS– YOU HAVE A RURAL NATURAL HEALING GARDEN!!! AND SHE IS TOTALLY CORRECT— WE SPEND AS MUCH TIME AS POSSIBLE OUT IN OUR YARD & GARDEN AREA————- WE ARE NOT FANCY– BUT IT IS ONLY TO PLEASE US– AND NOT ANYONE ELSE——

MAY IS MCS AWARENESS MONTH——- AND THE PLACE WE CAN ENTERTAIN PEOPLE IS IN OUR YARD & GARDEN– IF THEY DON’T HAVE LOTS OF FRAGRANCES & TOXIC POISON ON THEM——–

SO OUR YARD & GARDEN & PATIO AREAS ARE OUR HEALING AREA & ALSO OUR ENTERTAINING AREAS DURING GOOD WEATHER———–

SO SEVERAL OF MY MCS SISTERS HAVE ASKED ME—- IF THE UGLY TREE IS GONE IN OUR FRONT YARD??

YES– IT IS– DO YA WANT TO SEE????

HERE IS THE UGLY TREE— GARY & I HATED THAT TREE & I HAVE BEEN CALLED A TREE HUGER BEFORE!!!!  🙂    LOL!!!!  BUT IT HAD TO GO!!!!!

UGLY TREE IS BRACED SO IT WILL FALL THE CORRECTION DIRECTION WHEN GARY CUTS IT DOWN———

GARY SAWING  THE TREE  & ME READY TO YELL “TIMBER”!!!!!    🙂  LOL!!!

UGLY TREE CUT DOWN & LOADED ON TRAILER TO GO TO THE BURN PILE!!

UGLY TREE GONE– GAS PIPE  & METER SHOWING————GRAVEL GOING DOWN—–  ETC–

STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS BUT THE UGLY TREE IS GONE— AND THE GRINDER WAS MY DAD’S & WE BOUGHT IT AT THEIR AUCTION WHEN MY DAD DIED– AND IT HAS BEEN AT EVERY HOUSE WE HAVE LIVED AT– JUST A PART OF MY DAD—WITH US–

SEE THE CORNER OF THE HOUSE BY THE BAY WINDOW– IT USE TO HAVE UGLY BIG CEDAR BUSHES THERE— AND THEY WERE RUBBING ON THE HOUSE– ETC–ETC– THEY ARE GONE– WE ARE REMOVING THE MESS INSIDE THE FLOWER BED– AND REPLACING IT WITH GRAVEL & THEN PUTTING IN ANOTHER FISH POND THERE–  THEN WE CAN ENJOY IT FROM OUR LIVING ROOM WINDOWS & OUR FAMILY ROOM WINDOWS!! ONE OF OUR NEXT PROJECTS—-  BUT GARY CAUGHT A BAD SUMMER COLD & SHARED IT WITH ME–  AND WE ARE WORKING AT GETTING WELL AGAIN—–NOT MUCH ENERGY RIGHT NOW——–

GARY’S COLD IS GETTING BETTER & I’M TO THE STAGE HE WAS A FEW DAYS AGO—–BUT WE DOCTOR ALL NATURAL– AND LETTING OUR BODIES HEAL THEM SELVES– WITH ALL NATURAL HELP TO OUR IMMUNE SYSTEMS!!!

IT IS STORM SEASON IN KANSAS!!!!!

OUR MISSY BOO-BOO– SHE IS REALLY OLD NOW & WE HAVE TO KEEP WATCHING AND KEEP HER OUT OF THE HOT SUN— SHE IS OUR GUARD DOG– SHE LETS US KNOW IF ANYONE IS AROUND!!!

THIS IS OUR MORNING COFFEE SPOT– IF NONE OF THE NEIGHBORS ARE USING DRYER SHEETS—- OR BURNING LEAVES– ETC-ETC—

WE STILL HAVE TONS OF THINGS WE WANT TO DO YET— BUT PROGRESS IS BEING MADE—– AND MOST OF ALL WE HAVE A HEALING YARD & GARDEN–  FOR US– WE ENJOY ALL THE FLOWERS & PLANTING & THE WILD LIFE– AND THE PRIVACY!!!!  IT IS OUR HEALING GARDEN!!!! AND HOPE TO HAVE HEALING FOOD FROM OUR GARDEN ALL CHEMICAL FREE!!!

GARY & I HAVE STARTED GOLF CART RIDES IN THE EVENINGS– NOT THE SAME AS TAKING THE GOLF CART DOWN TO OUR MARINA ON LAKE TANEYCOMO LIKE WE DID WHEN WE LIVED IN BRANSON—  BUT WE GET OUT & LOOK AROUND—–

 

EVERY DAY WHEN WE LIVED IN BRANSON WE WENT FOR A GOLF CART RIDE AROUND THE RESORT & DOWN TO THE LAKE—- WE MISS THAT—

I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE GOLF CART LATELY– AND GARY DOES WELL— HANGS ON FOR DEAR LIFE– BUT GOES WITH ME————–

LIFE IS GOOD—– WE ENJOY OUR YARD & GARDEN—— WE HAVE AN OFFER ON OUR PROPERTY — OUR MCS SAFE HOUSE -WE HAVE FOR SALE IN BURNS, KS– IF WE CAN COME CLOSER TO THE PRICE WE NEED— GOD IS IN CONTROL— WE JUST WANT IT TO WORK OUT———

GARY & I ARE RECOVERING FROM THIS BAD COLD– WE BOTH CAN’T REMEMBER THE LAST TIME WE WERE SICK WITH A COLD— THE ONLY TIME WE GET SICK IS FROM CHEMICAL EXPOSURES!!!

I AM FEELING A LOT BETTER——- BUT I MIGHT NEED MORE CARROTS!!!!!  🙂
