Good morning Folks ~ here we are almost to the middle of January already. Time is zipping right along. I pray that you all are doing well, staying safe and finding some joy in each new day that we are blessed with.
My wrist is still healing, it will take time. I'm learning more patience in this time of covid, and to trust God with everything. An online friend told me about a linament, Zhen Gu Shui. I googled it, read the reviews and ordered it in a spray. It came yesterday and I've used it twice. I'll let you know what I think after using it for about a week. So far, I do believe it has lessened the pain. The healing of this linament goes all the way to the bones.
I had a hard time with opening cans with my swing away can opener because of this injury so looked up electric can openers. I got discouraged looking at ads and reviews. One I really, liked but the reviews mentioned metal slivers and that turned me off. The next day in my you-tube feed I got a recommendation to watch a video for this very can opener. It was done by a lady and she did a very good review. This opens the cans around the outer edge, unsealing the lid from can, no sharp edges. The way you would get metal slivers is by letting the can do another revolution, instead of stopping after the first one. This works fantastic, what an invention.

I am so itching to work in my gardens, but at this time just do very little as everything continues to grow. This is just one area that needs work. ;-)
I ordered two new hand garden tools that I really needed. One came a week or so ago, and the other is due to be delivered today. I did try out the hedge shears just to see how they were, and oh my I can hardly wait to do some serious hedge trimming. Both were bought through Amazon, and gift money from friends bought these two tools.

Felco pruning shears below.I have carted out some more cut limbs piled out back by the 'caravan', to the front curbside to be picked up by brush people on Sat. Needless to say, I go slowly and don't do too much.
My friend Sean and another man from his church will be here on Saturday to work more on replacing fencing. That will be nice.
Here are some of the flowers that are blooming now. I wish you could smell the roses and other bloomers whose scents are filling the air. No names at this time as my wrist is really starting to bother me as I type.
That's it for now. If you need peace and joy in your life, seek Jesus. Talk to him, give him all of your cares.
Love, hugs and prayers,
FlowerLady
