We had our first frost overnight. These are happy to be safe inside.
I have been staring at the computer screen for what seems like forever, realizing there is nothing fit to print happening in my life. Plenty happening in the world. I read a Georgia judge struck down the hand count, after the automated count of votes, before certifying the election result, saying something like"too much too late". I will admit I worry about all of this.
Enough of that. Onto the important stuff. I thawed duck stock for soup, today is the day to make said soup. Perhaps some bread will be made. Tomorrow I start up the outside work again. Neighbor Bill stopped by yesterday. It was pleasant to have another person to talk to for awhile. He is the neighborhood mechanic, which means he has been busy keeping farm equipment running. He told me he hasn't forgotten about the wood pellet stove. Mark could probably fix it, but Mark does not like doing that sort of thing. He is not mechanical and doesn't want to be. It's beyond my realm.
It's 9:30. Time to start my day. Have a good Wednesday, one and all.

Duck soup? That's a movie!
It is. Marx Brothers!
Be glad when this is over--even though I doubt it will be right on election day. Soon after, I hope.
Can almost hear Harpo's horn! LOL! ;)
HA! I'm nervous about it. An awful lot is at stake, Rita.
Those days when I find myself just staring at the computer or off into space can be unnerving for me when they happen, thankfully they don't happy every week.
What a lovely picture with backlight on the magenta flowers and on the outside leaves too.
Last time I had duck I was single.
That picture is gorgeous!
It can be unnerving, Jo-Anne.
I feel flattered having that praise come from you, AC. Thank you.
I think that was a while ago, Dora! It has jumped up in price, so now I walk on by.
Grazie, Cheerful!
I don't know about Mark, but I'm very nervous of any kind of DIY. I'm afraid I'll do something horribly wrong and end up with some mess that a professional has to sort out.
Mark does fence repair and things like that. Otherwise we get someone who knows what they are doing, like you do. Seems a wise choice.
Your Petunias look so pretty!
We had our first frost last night, 30 degrees in Nashua, NH, thankfully we have no plants to move anywhere, but yours look happy to be indoors, Sandra. Enjoy the soup.🦆
Another gorgeous photo. We had a frost warning last night and one for tonight. It should be in the 60s for the next 6 days. I. hope you were able to see clips of KH when she was on the Fox Entertainment channel. The audience was huge and they got an earful. She held her own even tho the host talked over her time after time. It's a crazy out there and DT sure picked some interesting music to sway to for over half an hour.
The view from your window is beautiful. The lamp fixture above the elephant is it flower ? It is lovely.
Stay warm,
Kaye
They are. I couldn't let them die, Fae Side.
We are having another warm spell, Dorothy.
I didn't see any of it, Lori. I get too anxious. I did read about the bad mannered interview and that she handled it like a pro. I also read about the 30 minutes of sawying to music. What the.........?
It is, Kaye. We bought this place for the barn, that was just me, and the setting.
