<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We have heard lots of times pick your apples... </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I had left a few in a small tote on our porch, it was later I had gone to bed when they showed up. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">My wife was up and heard them looking for food. Needless to say it was hard for her to go to sleep after that.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I am grateful the bears didn't do any harm as I am grateful for for family and friends. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Wishing everyone a happy and fulfilling New Year!</span>

I have gone through a few rough patches and so has my wife Wendy. Getting older has taken some adjustments being mindful is a major one. Keeping in a happy productive mindset and not letting yourself go is so important. Being kind and understanding of others is another...<br />
I have been working around the yard and garden and have started to plant garlic for next summer, planing on doing a local garlic festival in Aug. <br />
Recently tore down a fifty year old shed my neighbor gave me so now have lots of material to replace a shelter last winter brought down.<br />

I am starting to relax and start working on projects I haven't had time or energy for. It has been a real winter so far lots of ice and snow My neighbor wanted to knock down some big leaf maples I got all the firewood and had some fun. We had a big snowfall which knocked down a choke cherry and broke a branch off a maple onto the house. I had a tree company take the two problem maples down. I am happy and when I build an addition there are no more trees to worry about. </span><br />

It has been a challenge getting with the program after so much time off. The heat has been an issue, keeping hydrated and keeping enough cool down brakes is important. The flowers, Rhodo's and shrubs are early this year and it looks to be a long dry summer. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I notice a lot of my fellow bloggers are talking about getting older and the challenges they are facing. This last year I have been finding that I have been at odds with myself, dealing with thoughts of life passing me by.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Working on being as healthy as possible with food and supplements has given me a focus. Mentally learning what I can do with a positive happy attitude is making a real difference. Feeling sorry for yourself is one of the worst things people do to themselves and the first to change for a better life. </span><br />

I have been busy with fall things, working on yard and garden thinking of the next season. Gathering leaves for mulch is one thing I do each year and each year I have a neighbor who lets me have his leaves. He has 7 big leaf maples in a clump, I call them the seven sisters, usually half of my leaves come from these. Working on the garden is a good release of stress and a way for me to gather my thoughts.<br />

Being forewarned by a mild dry winter and the continuing drought in California it seems that climate change may need a little more than lip service from those in power. There are lots of things that can be done by individuals and every little bit helps.</span><br />

Time was right and I had help from my neighbor who is a lot younger than me.</span><br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The roof was in sad shape. I set up the truck to toss the old shingles. In their day the inter locking style was popular but they didn't pass the test of time. When we went to the dump the waste weighted 807 kilos. Milton (the truck) was loaded for bear. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Putting the roof back together required re-sheeting one side. I went out and bought <i>fall arrest gear</i> for working on the edge. The bottom few courses I hand nailed then used a rented roofing nail gun. It is a great feeling having this job done all, the other roofs are single story.</span></div>

Learning about health and safety and the many pitfalls can be over whelming. Knowledge is power and informing oneself is the best defence. It is every ones right to know about the dangers of Wi-Fi, Smart meters, any smart appliances, microwaves, dirty power, the dangers of cell phone use and any other products that emit radiation. When I first got interested it was because of the attempts by BC Hydro to force me to accept a so called Smart Meter. It is hard to understand why anyone should be forced to have something so dangerous to their health and well being. There is a lot of helpful information out there, here is a site that leads to other sites.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I bought a couple of truck loads of yellow cedar slabs and off cuts to use for my garden fence. The price is right and when it is finished around $125.00 will do a hundred feet. Tonight is the time change and Spring is very close. It is time to get busy with gardening, pruning and other spring things. There are still frosty mornings, the price to pay for beautiful sunny days</span>.</span><br />

Hides my yard, protects my garden from the deer (somewhat, they are pretty clever at finding ways to eat the tops of tender new plants). I need to write a post just about fence weaving.</span></td></tr>
