I don't know how anyone working a full-time job outside the home could ever have the energy to do canning/preserving. I feel like it's been taking up all my days for the past few weeks and I know that's not actually the case as I've done other things as well during those weeks, but all I recall is the chopping/slicing/freezing/canning that has been happening. 😊
Next year will be easier because I'll have good shelves to put all the stuff on, rather than putting it willy-nilly wherever I can find a safe spot. At least we finally got into it this year instead of chickening out like we have in the past. We can't expect to be 100% prepared in our first canning year, can we? No, I don't think so, and that's okay, as I'm far from perfect at anything else, why should canning be any different, LOL! 😊
I'm glad to hear that. My handsome husband thinks I'm a bit odd for mentioning my favourite tree so often and that I take way too many photos of her, but I think she deserves every single picture, she's statuesque and stands out in the crowd, so why not, I say. LOL! 😊
I'm exhausted and it's late, so I'm going to say goodnight and head off to bed. Talk with you again soon. 😊
