I haven't had much time to write lately and nothing to write about. I have been keeping busy with the medical transcription and will probably get even busy when my sister-in-law takes on another client. I am still enjoying the working at home and not having to spend money on gas. Chuck started back working last week on another barn and I think that they have one to do after that. I hope before the weather gets cold. So far its been beautiful and nice not to have any humidity. Its been in the high 70s daytime and 50's at night but it will be in the 40's at night later on this week. The high on Wednesday is only suppose to be 69 with a low of 49 at night. The leaves on the trees are starting to change a little bit. Its hard to believe that Oct starts next week. This year has gone very fast for me.
Son Stephen was planning a trip up from FL in Oct. now it may not be until Nov. I do hope he makes it. We plan to drive down to FL the day after Christmas and pick up Kristy and the girls and bring them back here for a visit until the kids have to return to school. I know if Kristy sees this area she may want to move to TN. One can always hope.
We are enjoying eating all the peaches we froze they are just as good as when we froze them. Next year we plan to have a much larger garden and freeze veggies for the winter. Our neighbor planted his winter crops of greens and maybe we will be lucky to get some of them. He has given us some excess stuff from his sisters garden she lives just down the road from here. I still have tomatoes, green peppers and eggplant in my garden. Froze a bunch of tomaotoes to use in soups, chilli and spagetti sauce for the winter.
Thanksgiving will soon be upon us. Both sister-in-laws will be coming for Thanksgiving and Diane's son Robert may fly in from CA. Diane finally got a larger car so it will be a much more comfortable drive for them to come here. It will be great to cook for more than two people to. I heard on the news that hams will be going up in price so I think I will get one ahead of time for New Years day.
Well thats it for now. Not a lot happening in the mountains of Tennessee.

About Us
- Kitcat
- I'm Cathy, a 67 year old retired Navy wife. Spent 24 years as a Navy wife until my husband retired after 27 years of service. We traveled all over from Washington D.C., to Puerto Rico, St. Croix, St. Maartin, Martinique, Japan and Korea. We re-located to this beautiful state of TN from Central FL. We live in the mountains on 5 acres with our 10 cats (5 indoor). I'm Chuck, the Other Half of the equation. I'm a 68 y/o sailor at heart. While in the Navy I was a Cryptologic Tech (Intel type). My most memorable tours of duty were in Submarines (Scorpion, Skipjack, Triton & Ray), as Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Deputy Director National Security Agency (RADM C.F. Clark), and my last tour as Operations Chief at NSGA Homestead, Fl during Hurricane Andrew. It was a good time to retire. We have been looking for this home since 1965 and thank the good Lord that we're finally here.
