Down Time… well spent…

July 13, 2018 - Author: Jennifer Mylod

It takes 1 second… to miss a stupid step,  and now I’m laid up after knee surgery for the next 3-4 weeks… and I’m kicking myself for being – as I always tend to be… too hasty in my activities.   But I know that’s useless energy spent… like rocking in a rocking chair… back & forth – doing something – but getting nowhere & getting nothing done fast.

So, I’m contenting myself as best I can, with an interesting, historical novel about George Washington’s spies… & I have a lovely candle, scenting the room with mango… I’ve got my fiddle & bow – and a list of over 200 tunes I want to learn… & I’m taking advantage of this down time… all while keeping the boo-boo knee elevated & iced.   So I’m just working on tunes, new songs… correspondence… and just enjoying the quietness of the tick-tock… of the house.

All with my sweet Boone, not far from my side… a constant companion who listens to my every word… & runs herd on the ‘naughty cats’… as he sees fit.  He’s been keeping a watchful eye on me – as I gimp my way to the kitchen & back, or anywhere in the house…  and I’m enjoying the fresh garden cucumbers… that Boone loves too…  we share.

Got my beloved Cannondale 613 – within my view – beckoning  & willing me to hasten my recovery.  I can’t WAIT to get back on my bike, & rower,  back in the sea kayak, back to hikes with ol’ Booney… & especially get well for our upcoming trip back to Ireland again…  I long to hike the foot trails along the “Dingle Way” – again… can’t wait!

But for now… my gardens lay abandoned… running amuck I’m sure… and I must trust the coop & the chickie’s care to any capable hands that offer assistance…  and try and be patient directing necessary activities – from a lazy-boy recliner…  ugh.   Anyone who knows me – knows I’m not one ever to lounge around… so this is quite an undertaking and lesson in patience for me.

I’ll return to the Green – hopefully – next week with my spiffy, green patterned cane… and have a ton of new tunes & a song or two to add to the mix…   So…. ’til we meet again – at the Green!!!

An adventure off of music… but still melodic & artistic!

July 8, 2018 - Author: Jennifer Mylod

As everyone pretty much knows, I have a ton of energy, and channeling that energy into the various exciting avenues I find interesting – is always a grand adventure for me!  I can find fun and learning no matter where I go… and this adventure into being a chicken owner – has been just wonderful!

So this blog, I’m sharing an article I wrote for a page called Back Yard Chickens.  I started my own flock this past Spring- and it’s been a joyous journey.   It still mixes with my music… as my little coop is a lovely place to play fiddle – and the chicks seem to enjoy it.

So here’s the link to the article I wrote  – if you’re looking to share my adventure!   Jenni’s Chickens 

Enjoy & have a wonderful day!  xoxo  Jennifer!
