Today is my nephew Jesse’s birthday. I forgot to post on here for his wife Tonia’s birthday on the 2nd. So happy birthday to both Jesse and Tonia! Love you!
Despite dire predictions of weather I woke up to bright sunshine and no rain or wind. I picked up Kathy at 9:30am and we went to the Market at West Overton. There were a lot of venders and a huge variety of products and crafts. Parking was in a field over the hill from the museum, so we took the shuttle over. It was unconventional and fun!
Kathy got a dip mix, and ‘rice bag socks’ for the kids.
I got Cameron a little camo rubber ducky — Nate calls him Camo. I also got a few handmade soaps and a small flat of Zennias.
After I dropped Kathy off, then got gas for in the Mazda. My front radio screen was not coming on so I stopped and asked Rege to check. We pushed all the buttons several times but he finally figured it out for me. Everything was fine except the radio and the clock wasn’t visible. I think we just pushed a button accidentally. Thanks for being a hero, Sir Regis! All fixed now.
When I got home I had toast and bacon for lunch, and by then it was raining. I melted some chocolate and made drizzled popcorn, and then some chocolate covered peanut butter pretzel nuggets. I even did about 4 strawberries. They’ll be gone in a heartbeat.
I was cleaning up when the sun came out and the rain stopped. I suited up and spent and hour and a half in the very wet gardens. But the hills and back yard are FINISHED! I also did the side where the roses are. All that’s left is the front, and it’s level and small and will be easy to do. Yea!
It started to rain again just as I was cleaning up – and I heard there was a tornado watch. An hour later — sun!
I still have a piece of meatloaf left so I’ll probably have that for supper. I’m ready for Sunday School class tomorrow and the Mother’s day project.
My blessing today was spending time with my sister! In nice weather!
PEANUTS Thought for the Day:
TOMORROW May 12th is:
Mother’s Day; National Hospital Day; National Limerick Day; National Nutty Fudge Day; National Odometer Day; National Brown Rabbit Day.
Yesterday’s fake day was Runs with Scissors Day – DON’T DO THAT! I’ll celebrate Mom – miss her all the time. Odometers are important but I don’t get very excited about them – unless someone records the wrong miles on a title! God bless…
This is a limerick Mom wrote about herself in her memory book:
There once was a girl named Dot; who sighed when it got too hot; She would wade in the ‘run’ and have lots of fun; until called home by her mum!
Pretty cool huh?
