My vegetables are looking a little sad.

Cool night temps are taking a toll on the garden, going to have to harvest all of the tomatoes.

Grapes are ripe, but not many clusters of grapes this year. Not sure there’s enough to even try to make juice.

Fall colors are showing.

My Fall flowers are blooming and I’ve not gotten the dead heading of the summer blooms completed yet. It just may not get done either! I’m so slow these days.

They are a little slow this year.

Here’s the other one.

Lucy’s favorite past time!

And she drives Rudy crazy dragging everything all over the yard!

This is what she was doing when I went to check on her this afternoon.

Summer has turned to Fall here in Eastern WA

Colors are starting to show every where. Fog is on the river in the mornings with our cool nights. We’ve had warm days, but plants have slowed in growth. Garden isn’t doing much these days either.

Leaves have started to fall and that means work is on the way. Hoping weather stays good enough to clean up the yard before bad weather comes.

Gosh! What a mess!

I’ve been trying for days to get into my blog so I could do some updating. I’m finally in! Yeah!

We’ve gotten the Dish Network problems solved, not quite like we wanted though.

I’m still fighting with emails, Clearwire still has not solved the problem with retrieving my older emails yet. They make me so mad!

This is my life these days, STRESS!

Update on Emails

Still not straightened out, life doesn’t get any easier for me.

I know they were wroking on something yesterday because a test email came in on my account from Tech-Clearwire. Still waiting for my emails to be back, even though they are still in my computer.

Change! Something I don’t handle well!

I hate ( I don’t like to say that word) change!

Just spent two very frustrating days dealing with email problems caused by our internet company changing their email to gmail!

It totally messed up my Thunderbird account, which I use for email. Two days of working with them over the phone, changing settings, losing all of my emails (they are still in my computer, but can’t open any of them) and still problems! The Tech finally told me either just use gmail or switch to Yahoo or something.

I’m so mad, I’m spitting nails right now!

I struggle with electronics in the first place and changes just totally frustrate me.

We’ll be busy all day today at the Hanford Patrol Family Open House, so I won’t be fighting with this email problem today.
