While Hubby took a nap, I took a little walk out to the tomatoes and fall green beans to check on them. And the remaining cauliflower (which looks great due to some recent rain).
I ended up coming in for a basket, and picked 21# of tomatoes. That brings the grand tally to 365.39# this season.
However, in all that picking, the wind was wicked, and I lost one of my favorite earrings that I don't wear that often (it was a special occasion to wear them for Hubby's ride home). It was a wake up call to me. I think I lost it in the tomatoes somewhere.
I should not have gone to the garden.

Coming Home....
I'm bringing my husband home today folks. He had the best care at the best hospital, and a high-five to Yawni, his nursing assistant who had us laughing a good amount of the time. Good laughter, good conversation, and lots of laughs. Although I think Hubby talked her ear off with all my self-sufficient ways, and weed remedies, ha ha!
He got to talking about comfrey and I could not stop the man. He is definitely feeling much better and I can't wait to sit on the porch and love on him today.
Thank you for all your good thoughts, well wishes and prayers. We will be celebrating life. Tomatoes can wait. Or they can be part of dinner.
The temperatures here really dropped, so the tomatoes may have rotted overnight anyway. I better get this posted so I can get the laundry on the line before sun-up. I have to get that love of my life back home where I can spoil him again.
