I started this blog to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 15 1/2 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. June 16th Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

June Is Here!
Can you believe that the sixth month of the year has arrived? I guess it is true that time flies when you are having fun (and even when you're not)! Woody went on one four-mile walk today. We had rain come through in the night and it has actually been quite cool today...especially with the breeze. I stayed in most of the day. Woody took Elijah grocery shopping this morning. I helped put away the groceries. We went next door to take care of three of the six grandchildren while Nathan and Kathy went to pick up their vehicle that had been in the shop getting some work done. I have read and pretty much just relaxed most of the day. A little while ago Graham gave me a tour of the gardens at their house. Their veggie gardens are putting ours to shame! Yesterday Woody helped Joy make zucchini bread using zucchini from their garden. Today Esther brought us some yellow squash that they had grown. Tonight's photo shows Woody admiring their garden. This was taken a couple of days ago...all the plants seemed much larger tonight. We are all really enjoying watching it grow...and, now beginning to enjoy produce from it. They have discovered pumpkins growing on a volunteer pumpkin vine and the latest discovery is a baby watermelon...again a volunteer plant that is growing under the pumpkin vine. Lots of surprises! (You can see the nice swing that Nathan built for the kids in the background. The children are loving it!)
