veggie garden

I planted my veggie garden when my husband was alive, and taking chemo, so I planted good fresh veggies for protein and vitamins for him. When the C-Dif bacterial infection took him, I was left with a large garden with just me and my son. Well, the neighbors and friends will benefit, and I may give some to the our towns food bank. I am sure some of these people would love to have some of these veggies and they won't waste.
My gas dryer in my son's house quit, so I now get to figure out what is the best way to either fix it or replace it. My husband did not replace our washer and dryer and just used the one next door, and I am not happy with that scenerio, so I am going to figure out the cheapest way to get a washer and dryer fit into my house, and out of the basement(where they used to be, and we always got water).

update on bird and cats

Well, mama Wren kicked her babies out, and they could not fly, so they hopped over to the shady area by my house,(I am trying to make a woodsy forest floor garden there) and when last seen were attempting to fly. In the meantime mama Cat heard them so I had to keep an eye on her. She was busy moving her kittens, one died, as mama was in very bad shape, skinny and hungry. She still had two kittens but the one time we located them, so moved them, so I just put food and water out for her every morning. She is very wild and not friendly to humans, but she will sit there now, so I can put food out. I will still feed her, she is a beautiful calico cat, and I do not think she has ever had human contact, but I enjoy her anyway.
