I haven't posted recently. We went on a 3 day RV trip and spent 2 days in a truck repair yard. It was okay, people were kind, we were safe and the fuel pump got replaced, but it was not the mini-vacay we had in mind. When we got back there was mighty feud going on between 2 of our tenants, who were screaming, accusing and calling the police. Oy! Just the kind of drama nobody needs. My husband got a kidney infection that went to sepsis - at 80 this is no joke! He was at the ER when it got serious, so they tamed it and admitted him to the ICU where he stayed for 3 days. Meanwhile, I mediated the madness between my tenants, took care of dogs and home and spent as much time as possible with him at the hospital. I went into serious adult mode and took care of everybody. No overeating, but very little exercise. I've lost a bit, he's home and getting back on his feet. I'm planning to get back to the gym today and do the last mowing of the year. We're thinking about selling up the rentals, because who needs this, especially as we are ageing.

I've been a busy girl this week working on my own neglected landscape. I ignored my former vegetable garden this summer and it grew into a jungle, so I've been hauling out massive biomass - very heavy work. Plus, I've been going to the gym these past two weeks, starting with 2x per week while I've got all this other heavy work going on. Feeling good. We haven't had our RV on the road this season at all, due to my husband's health issues. But we''ve got some glorious weather forecast this week -at peak foliage- so I think we're going to take a quick 3 day trip up to the Northeast Kingdom of VT to enjoy the fall, and get away a bit. Nice to see the scale moving. I'm doing a carnivore coaching with Kelly Hogan for this month, so I'm cleaning up and doubling down on high protein and regular gym.
