    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    I spent about 3 hours on the mower this morning and didn't finish everything. Got the front half of the pasture and around the pond, then did the front and side yards. Didn't get to the back yard because it started raining. Put the mower up and the rain stopped. Of course it did! So...

    Still struggling to find time to get the gardening done. Between all of DH's appts and me being a tiny bit under the weather not a lot is getting done. Also need to do the first big mowing chore of the season. I've mowed the yard once already, (it needs it again) but I need to get the pathway...

    I hope the craziness is over for now! Woke up to 72 as an overnight low. Headed for low 80's.

    Up and at 'em unfortunately, lol. Really, really wanted to stay in bed a little longer but that didn't happen. Coffee first always! Have laundry going and got started emptying the dishwasher. Will finish when I go back for the second cup.

    I started getting a scratchy throat Saturday on the way home from the trip. It wasn't horrible, but every day it's a little more insistent. Woke up today with chest/sinus congestion and a cough. Oh great! Should have started the elderberry syrup Saturday, but better late than never. I got...

    Stayed in bed until 7! How luxurious, lol. More gardening on the agenda for today ... and at some point I guess I should unpack.

    What did you do in your garden today?

    I did real gardening today! I cleaned out two raised beds. Then I brought up two big ol' garden carts full of barn gold. The first cart load is spread in the first bed. The second cart load is out there waiting for me to spread it. I will, but first I'm gonna gulp down something cold and...

    It was a challenge, but the good times with grandson and family made it all worthwhile.

    Whew! Never been so glad to be home. We got home Saturday a little after 4. Monday started out less than perfect. I should have taken that as an omen, lol. We were supposed to pick up the rental car at 8am. It wasn't ready until 10. I had a talk with the manager, told him we would be...

    Today is the day! Eeeeek! I'll pick up DS this morning and we'll go pick up the rental. Come back here, load our stuff and he'll go home and load their stuff. DIL has to work until noon-ish. We'll head over to their place about that time, and we'll load up and go. After we get back from...

    Frustratedearthmother's Journaling Journey

    Last full day at home - leaving mid-day tomorrow. DIL has to work a half-day. We have no specific destination in mind for tomorrow. We're just going to drive as far as we feel comfortable driving. I think we're as prepared as we can be - unless I've totally forgotten something. Hope not...

    What's for dinner?

    I rummaged around in the freezer and found some chili. Still yummy!
