Been cleaning out garden beds, myself. Looks like a nice weekend for more of that. Otherwise, dealing with my ABUNDANCE of apples this season. More pies and pie filling are in the works for the weekend. Apple sauce, butters and jams are all done! :)

Beau will be back from Bear Camp on Monday, so I have kennels to prep for the dogs’ return and I’ll TRY to get some housework done before they all get back, but I’m not making any promises. ;)

Our maples around the driveway are starting to turn.

Company coming tomorrow - big bathroom project 95% done (all the hard stuff). Grass will get mowed this afternoon - picked up Ophelia debris yesterday afternoon & so did mom, got a trailer full - lots of small branches down.

I won’t be able to get in the garden to repair the landscape fabric damaged by the stray horses & work on clearing out the beds until Monday. Another relative wanted to visit Wednesday, but mom will be out of town. There is a possibility this cousin can change their schedule & come either Tuesday or Thursday. I really want to get the garden squared away.

Weather is supposed to be beautiful this week, then not so good over the next weekend again (we have another trip planned over that weekend).

At the moment, trying to figure out how to store my canned goods in an orderly fashion that makes sense - everything is on the fireplace hearth & the dining room table!

It’s always best to leave the housework for last. This strategy has worked well for me. But then I live alone . . .
