“Work at WORK and Work at Home”

Oct 9th “Work at WORK and Work at Home”

When you start working, one thing leads to another around the house, and each part of the house has been “a long time waiting” and “way past due” area, that just has to be taken care of.

When this PHOTO of me was taken – it was to show that our “tomato” plants were starting to do something – but very slowly and the “peach” tree was still surviving although, I do not believe we ever saw any fruit , something about you needing a male and female tree near each other , so that the “birds and the bees” can make magic!

In the 1970’s when we had some acreage for horses and also planted some “Fruit” trees, – we did not have any fruit – because, the horses also like their “apples” fresh from the tree – so , there is a whole lot to learn about planting for the benefit of receiving something good to eat – -the birds and animals get first pickings, way before I can – to reap the harvest!

But looking straight back and to the right of the PHOTO – you can see part of the NEW PORCH – the old porch has been taken off and away – and NOW the size of the porch would be large enough to put a “Hollywood Bed” in and a few other things.

“How’s this PHOTO of our very young “Mr. Wonderful, himself” – and in the taking of this PHOTO – “Tommy” is getting his ‘wake-up call’ – – have to get up and ready for WORK!”

Sometimes I wonder about what the easiest way would be to get someone up – – when it it is TIME to go to WORK? When you have a nice large bed – lots of room and plenty of pillows – and everything so nicely prepared for you – – to get to bed – to get up and have breakfast – – such wonderful “MAID- SERVICE” – and just because you are a part of the “Wonderful” family that thinks you are “Top-drawer” stuff!

These PHOTOS were taken in the 1950’s – and a few weeks ago, just thought, that I would put this address in Google – just to see what I would find – and would you believe it – this house is still there. While looking, also did a scan from the alley area – and this porch, that I had added to this house was still there. There were lots of trees and shrubs growing all around – almost looked like a forest back there. So I was almost wanting to know if someone still lives there.

When we moved away – and getting tired of all of the stuff to move left lots of “Banners” in the basement and even a real authentic “cannon” on the work bench. This was something that did work even had its own “gunpowder” attachment – never heard of anyone getting hurt – so I am guessing that everything that was left, behind – was useful to the new owners!
