    Sunny/cloudy mix today.

    I'm going to start putting in annuals in my front planting beds and pots. After putting my mother's flowers around her house and yard, Saturday, I have been too sore to get started on mine.

    I'm also going to bathe the stinky dog. She is too aromatic for me---especially if she's gonna sleep with us.

    That and cooking and some knitting, and that should make it a day.

    Humid and very warm here today. Getting ready to dash out for a hair appointment and to buy some new shoes. I have a graduation party to attend this weekend. Will stop at the store and the bank. Going to the land title company to pick up the deed to a piece of property. My husband bought five acres by the lake. We have an entire section of farm land, plus 100 acres off our home place.Why this five acres was needed is beyond me. Enough to make a preacher cuss as it is. Oh well. Have a wonderful day!

    Haven't done too much today - feeling run down b/c of my allergies. Not nearly as bad as it could be with great thanks to the neti pot but its still got me run down So far I've watched tv and taken it easy on the couch. Dishwasher thing was done, paid bills online. Need to pop out later to grab some groceries (or wait til tmrw) and take dad to an appt.

    Quiet day here for me plus gas is $1.40/L here today. Booo!! :'(

    So far I've repackaged meat into servings for DH & I and put into the freezer, swept kitchen/breakfast area/part of family room, made breakfast & lunch, washed dishes, and washed 2 loads of laundry. I still need to fold clothes, iron, do my bible study and get some paperwork ready to be mailed.
