• Monday, May 12, 2008 - Monday Ramble

We had a great weekend!  Friday night my SIL and nephew came out.  They stayed until Sat. night.  I wish they would have stayed another night.... maybe next time.  We had a great visit!   My nephew helped with plumbing the solar stuff for the pool.  No, they finish.  Something about not reading the instructions correctly and having to re-do a couple of things.  :)   Maybe sometime this week.  While they were gathering the things to work on that I hung most of my plants on the deck and ran the drip to each pot.  We had the main drip line installed already.   It looks so pretty with all the potted plants hanging out there.   I have no clue what to do this fall to keep them alive until spring.  Some can be easily replaced but my geraniums I would like to save.   Guess I will worry about that in the late fall. 

 

We  had a lazy day other than watching them work on the solar.  We spent a lot of the day on the porch.  It was hot, but our porch didn't seem that hot.  The temps were around 100 on Sat.  That afternoon we BBQ ribs.  Mmmm I love ribs!  We are still eating on them.     We did gather my oregano and have it drying in the kitchen.  I also harvested the broccoli.  We got enough for Church and a little left to eat this week.  Not a lot, but at least the kids get to see how it grows.  I

 

Sunday the weather turned back into spring.  Our high was in the low 70s.   Church was great!  Our discussion was suppose to be on Acts 25, but it seemed to rabbit trail into many other areas of the Bible.  Those are great, fun and interesting times as we go back in Bible history to understand what is going on in the chapter we are reading. 

 

After Church I decided a nap was in order.  :)  I had a nice nap, but woke up sluggish.  I sat on the porch and watched fence building and carpet laying on the deck.  Our deck looks really good now!  They also got the fence up.  All that is lacking are springs on the gates to make them self closing and locking. 

 

I did get a wonderful Mothers Day blessing in my Daughter-in-loves blog,  http://bsjonesjourney.blogspot.com/  See I am truly blessed with a wonderful DIL!  

 

This weeks plans are kind of up in the air.  I have laundry today.  Heart to Heart on Thur. night.  This is like a moms night out.  Then on Friday I get produce.   Sat. is the flea market in Buffalo Gap.  I like going there.  Not sure yet if we will do it or not. 

 

Hope everyone has a blessed week. Leave a commit if you feel led to.  It's always fun and amazing to see just how many people read my blog.

About Me

Just want to share the joys and tears of living in the country with others that understand them both. I am mom to 5 children. Two biological and three adopted. We are praying for one more adopted soon. We live 40 miles from town on 117 acres. My days are full of homeschooling children and dealing with livestock. Life is never dull or boring or "normal" what ever normal is. I ramble on here often, some times more than once a day as this is my main form of socialization with adults during the day. Hope to make some new friends here.
