Country Girls Heartstrings Our Friendship set on Fire with Love

Wonderfully Busy Fall !!!

Well like always I am laggin' and never seem to have enough time.  I never seem to get here to blog as often as I would like.  We have been home from hunting for almost two weeks now and WHEW..... I am tired.  Life is just so busy.  I cleaned up after our trip where on the very last day I got a doe!!!!  Yeahhhhh, for me!  My hubby is hoping to get luck enough to harvest one in Nov. the late hunt.  We saw so many deer but they just weren't legal so I know God will Bless him in Nov.  Since we have been home I have been trying to de-clutter some of our 28+ years of accumulations.  UGH not a nice sight.  Plus we have been helping my youngest daughter Rhonda and her family move.  She is still in Lind with us, but moved to a much nicer, bigger home.  Today I am going to help her paint, while she unpacks.....  One of our good friends who hunts with my hubby, got home, he had a bad cold that turned into a lung infection, when he went to the Dr's. they put him right in the hospital,  He was getting ready to have a heart attack.  God is good though, he is now home with a minor process and medication they think he will be fine.  His diet and life style has to change though.  But Thank God, for Modern Medicine. 

Over the week end I bought some ceramic molds that I found on craigslist, and while we were up in Idaho, (So that made me have to clean mt side of the shop, that I could not walk through! LOL!) but while I was there I found a deal at Lowes, some shrubs for $2.50, $3.50 and $5.00.  Too good to pass up so the last two days I have been in the yard, digging holes, and planting all 14 of our new yard plants.  These are mostly just to add green to our lower yard, some color and texture.  I just love to garden.  In the lower lot we have decided on a mini orchard with dwarf fruit trees, instead of grass.  This way we can help the earth and our food supply.  And on the top we have added the new plants.  I hope our plan, works for us.  I would love to have the orchard in by next spring.  It will take some saving though, we still need 18 trees, we have only 9 so far.  I also am hoping to have a bigger garden.  I am going to look into buying some seeds now.....Just in case!   And I am starting on a plan for food storage.  I want to have the basics, Flour, Sugar, Shortening, and some canned items.  Do any of you have food storeage and if so what do you have stored???  I will try.... no promised to be back soon.  I really enjoy bloging, there just never seems to be enough hours in my day.  God Bless everyone! 

Your home from mine

Hello There!
I loved your pics of your home it looks lovely~~I love to garden too although we have to build barricades to keep the cattle out and other fourlegged critters~~lol!
I too have puppies. Two females with pups and between the two there is 15 of the sweet cuddly little fuzzballs~~ I just adore them but alas they will have to find homes too. I always get so worried about them finding good homes~~Scary!
Love your blog. Hope you have time to blog again sooner than later. God Bless
