    Default Sunny Sunday!

    I think Spring has finally sprung! YaY! Its going to be 75 today here.
    Dave's dad is visiting for a few days. He and Dave will be riding the ATVs and doing some fishing while he's here.
    I need to work on laundry... and dishes. Fun fun. Then we get to play outside.

    It's supposed to be 75 here today too. Boxes still to unpack, laundry, yardwork (more raking and some pruning), removing adhesive from the exterior of the house. Grocery shopping if it can be fit in.
    I just want to get the yard decent enough, so that I can start getting the lawn back in shape and make some flower beds.

    Have a great day everyone.

    Good morning friends! Lots of work to be done around here. I'm going to be starting my herbs and putting them in the cold frame. Should have done it a week or so ago but oh well...
    Also finishing up with the potholes in the driveway . It rained bunches yesterday & that makes them easier to spot. Wonder how many lbs. of rock we'll be hefting today.

    I have to finish the ant proofing & cleaning of my kitchen too. I had to kill 5 of the nasty devils yesterday. Guess Spring is really here.

    Usual laundry and feeding of the troops to do also. Hope I get time to read the paper, I love reading the Sunday paper.
    Have fun playing today everyone!

The workmen have gone and we won't be starting the next wave of renovations until this summer so I guess I'll have to put this house back into rder sometime son.

    Dh has gone rose crazy....we have about 7 new rose bushes. I can't believe that we're out of room and he's still wanting more. I think we may have to till the yard up for a rose garden. I'm not gonna let him do that, but he's really gone wild .
    I'm going to help him plant and clean up around the patio and yard today. I've already done some dishes and the general pick up around the house. We're gonna have some fish for dinner and just play in the dirt until then. Our weather is wonderful...hope everyone else is having a great day

    Wash about 6 loads of laundry and line dry.
    Make brunch and freeze extra (from scratch) waffles.
    Clean house
    Make dinner and lunches
    dishes

    Somewhere find a few minutes to breath!

    Hey...I bought one of those long lasting, only uses 15 watts but puts out 60 watts lightbulbs. Lets see how well it works. Also put all my Entertainment appliances on a power bar. When not in use the power bar is turned off.

    I wonder how much the utility bill will drop???
    Will let you know!
