Is this as much uncharted territory for you as it is for us? It was like we were in a foreign country speaking a foreign language. The doctor suggested that there have been good outcomes using this for Parkinsonian symptoms without the side effects of pharmaceuticals. I must admit we were out of our comfort zone. But DH will try it for a month and see if he gets better sleep and appetite as well as having better balance. Any one of those would be more than he can get from the medications now offered. If this is something you have had experience with, I’d truly appreciate it if you would share.
I have started making the bowl cozies. They will take a bit of time, but I’m liking them and they are reversible which is terrific. I put the website for making them on yesterday’s blog.
100# of apples are now all sauced and about half of that is now finished apple butter. It seems to take longer than I remember it taking a few years ago. Then there was a major cleaning job in the kitchen as I made some of the sauce each of several days without totally cleaning each time. But now all is finished except the applesauce becoming apple butter in the slow cooker.
to getting this quilt on the machine. My goal is to get it quilted and maybe finished before the end of the month which is this coming Thursday all ready. Hard to believe isn’t it?
The Meyers lemon tree is blooming. I’m hoping it has lots of lemons to go with 
These wonderful looking limes. There is also an orange tree which is just sitting and looking at us. The citrus trees share the dining room with us during the freezing months.
These funny hens apparently want to be shelved.
And finally the 8 AM hay delivery arrived at 6 PM. However it was not what we ordered and when opened, only about half was good hay. They are returning on Monday to pick it up. Hopefully, we both learned from this. He will be more honest and I will open the bales and look in the middle before any are unloaded
All the 40 of these have the darts cut now and are sitting at the machine ready to sew.
40# of apples are now applesauce with another 60# in the wings. I’d like to finish before Thanksgiving, but that won’t happen.
The crockpot is full as DH really enjoys the apple butter and that’s what much of this applesauce will become.
And then the raisins! I have had my dehydrators about 35 years and they have been very busy during those years. One quit heating and the other got way to hot, so I now need to replace both of the heaters. However the company has gone out of business, so I’m looking at other options.
For your enjoyment: There are times the hay ends up on someone’s back because they move just as I toss it. As you can see, the one on top really didn’t care where the hay was as long as it was accessible. She was quite willing to jump up on a back.
The morning started with a trip to the grocery. We use a lot of bananas in this house and we were out.
This machine records echocardiograms. It is fascinating to watch the heart as it pumps. No problem with DH’s heart. And truthfully I’m not sure what we are going to do differently. He is back to normal now and the doctor said with exercise, the body will create new pathways to take the place of those that were blocked. That leaves me not knowing how to try to prevent this in the future or when to know if there is trouble.
