A beautiful afternoon...I do not seem to get to post in the mornings anymore. It is thanks to Murphy...yes, we wake and then we doze back off. For me it is getting needed sleep which has escaped me for so long. He is just what I needed. We love him dearly...but there are days...
Alan and I enclosed the kitchen garden to keep him out. As you can see, he discovered he could get flat on his belly and stick his head right up to the shoulders to get a broken pot! That did not last long. Alan simply hammered it down more. Murphy was not amused.
I harvested these the last 2 days and though there are a few more on the plant, we are coming to the end of this plant so we will get a summer tomato next. Lisa and I will enjoy a couple of these tonight with melted cheese and a salad.
I know, this looks weird. It is my heel... still very sore but slowly healing. today I plan to keep closed shoes off....wearing just my slides. The plan is to do a few chores but to stay off it as much as I can. I must say, Murphy is being exceptionally good today. His barking at people while walking is still an issue and so I decided to try one of the remotes that emits a sound when behavior is not desired. It arrives today....wonder if he knows changes are coming!?
Alan had planned to take the day off as he has a miserable cold but was needed at work so off he went. He and Lisa each have one of Dennis' favorite hang around shirts. Today Alan took his and is feeling comfort wearing it. Mind you, he wears a suit and tie to work... off came the jacket on went the shirt and he plans to hang out in his office.
Speaking of Dennis....💔 not a day goes by that my Denny is not on my mind. Today, the 21st marks another month without him. Maybe Murphy can sense my mood and wants to be a good by. If only he could get the towels out of the dryer and the wash out of the washer.... where are those fairies? Glad to chat with you. Thank you for your kind words and for your friendship.

Oh what a rascal! Your heel sure did get injured. Hugs for you my friend.
I am glad that you are sleeping better now. A good night's sleep always makes you feel better.
Take care of the heel too, it looks very painful.
HI Gracie, so good to hear that you are getting more sleep - so essential to our wellbeing. I am also so glad that Murphy is bringing you such joy, despite "The days...". That heel does look so very painful. Sending you hugs, as you must miss your Denys so much.
Looks like little Murphy is having so much fun.
Your heel looks very painful and sore .
Bless you Gracie , you will never forget your wonderful Denny , think of all the good times dear friend you spent together and he will always be in your heart.
HUG's .
Oh Grace I think of you often and know how you feel - I know I have to learn to live with this loss but I also know that I will never get over it. I think Murphy has been a great tonic for you but he sounds like a determined little one.
A good nights sleep is such a wonderful thing as we age and not something we can all achieve.
Your heel does look painful.
Get well wishes for Alan, I hope his cold is short lived and that the germs are not shared with the ladies.
Murphy is a very determined little guy! Your tomatoes look delicious.
Oh, Murphy! What a little mischief-maker. But such a cute one!
