I wanted to have a more gardening related ID and I do grow Honey Berries, so I decided to change it. I tried to load an avatar but my images are too big. I need to work on that. I am so darn busy all the time but I will eventually get around to it. My big computer crashed so I don't have access to Photoshop anymore. I used to downsize images with Photoshop. I think I have a workaround but it takes more time.
My bird passed away about a month ago - my cute little cockatiel Rosco. I think it was due to the smokey air from the wildfires. He died on a day in August when the air quality was especially bad. Birds have such tiny lungs. I sure do miss him. I am not going to have another bird but am going to keep helping the parrot rescue place.
Some of my Honey Berry plants got really dry in August and one of them almost died because it was still in a pot and I got busy and didn't water it enough. It has recovered nicely. August was definately good for my tomatoes, though. I had some nice tomatoes this year. I have alot a green ones now. I hope they get ripe soon, before it's too late. Gardening is not easy. It is hard to accept losing plants or some of the harvest but I'm getting used to it.

Thank you Dave. I really miss him. He loved Woodstock chimes. He would perk up and whistle whenever I sounded the chimes. He was very sensitive to the pure tones. Such a nice healing alternative to all the disturbing human noise that goes on outside.
I have about 5 different varieties of 'Chimes of Earth', 'Chimes of Pluto', Turquoise chimes, etc. I keep them indoors so that the weather doesn't wear them out. They are much nicer than those ordinary patio chimes.
