It's been a busy week here in rural Indiana. Besides my usual yard and garden work (not to mention the house), I added a few chores--some pleasant, some not so--to my list.

I finally got around to washing and waxing my truck. Not so much fun. I've started washing house windows. Really not fun. I'm also working on repairing my brick driveway. Hard on the knees.

But a good chore this week was picking 27 lbs. of blueberries from a farm down the road! I love blueberries! I also picked blackberries from two wild patches I know about. My freezer is loading up, and I haven't even started with garden veggies.

The only bad thing this past week was my running over my only cat while backing out of the driveway. He simply didn't get out of the way, and I didn't see him. But, it's for the best. He was old (15+) and sickly. I hadn't had the nerve to have him "put to sleep". I buried him unceremoniously in the field. I keep looking for him to greet me from out of his secret hiding place. No more cats. The mice will proliferate.

Have a good weekend, my friends.
