Ida’s Notebook Ida Hisser As one becomes older, it is so easy to become set it one’s ways. Everyday we have a set routine of dressing, eating, brushing teeth, making beds, etc. And when things happen to break this procedure we can become upset. When we were younger and children filled the household, it was more difficult to follow a schedule. But now that they have gone off to college, it is so easy to be mt-picky.

T this year 1 managed to wash and wax two cars in one afternoon by myself although, it didn’t do any good for my elbows and shoulders. Another limbering up job was raking and hauling out the maple tree leaves. Formerly, I’d always piled them for the children to haul when they got home from school but not this year. Even emptying and defrosting the freezers can be done quicker with four hands than with only two. I’ve also learned to put up some of my pea fences in the spring without any help. Unrolling a 100- foot fence alone, without catching it on the tender plants, is a real feat. As for right now, 1 think I’d better plan to make some pies on. Wednesday. This year 1 hope to make not only pumpkin but also apple-cranberry pie as well. We usually have a 24 or 26-pound SBM BROODERS SHUT OFF^^T SIZE f 3 v 5,000 BTU MAXIMUM *>2.
