lovemyhouse's blog: Gimme the beat, boys...

Sunday, dumpy Sunday.  I feel dumpy.  Good thing I have dogs, they MAKE me get out of bed.

The pork roast cooked too long, part of it is mealy.  Will cut it up to make ‘kitchen sink’ and no one will know the difference.  LOL

Thank GOD!  Sister came early and took them all away to shower at her house before the cousin birthday party.  Happy dance, happy dancing feet, happyhappyhappy!  Cranked up the TV volume to max, propped open the front door, and listened to baseball while I worked in the yard.  Moved several dozen bulbs; dug up a tree seedling that had been let go too long; pulled the hibiscus pieces out of the pot, noticed two were still green at the base, and planted them (can’t hurt to try); potted up the Rose of Sharon the neighbors gave me—it is budding :-); pulled part of the grape soda-smelling Iris pallida, gave one rhizome across the street, planted three up by the house, and stuck three in front of the tree as a holding pen.  Watered and did some other stuff I can’t remember.  Now I am realllly realllly tired.  And they still aren’t home, yet.  I think Heaven is visiting my house with this gift of absence.

===============================================================

New day.  Ach, I don’t even want to talk about it.

===============================================================

New day.  Blondy-mama took Buddha Boy to spend last night at a friend’s, so house is really quiet this morning.  Stress is kicking my butt.  Most of it is monetary, which I can’t do a lot for at the moment.  Listed a ‘driveway sale’ on craigslist for this Saturday.  Roped DIL into helping—approached her in front of others so she couldn’t say no. (heheheh)  Listed my fire hydrant separately on craigslist and eBay.  Fingers crossed it goes by Thursday so I can get change for Saturday.

Well, she’s back.  Texted her to stay there for another night, but she says she didn’t get it until they were almost here.  Took boy-baby outside for a bit, brought him back in, and headed back out myself.  Pulled some weeds, came in for a broom, and she decides she wants to take her phone conversation and the baby out front with me.  Then they follow me around the yard.  Hey, I come out here to get AWAY from all of you!! :-[

===============================================================

New day.  FINALLY got started on the cement blocks for Jeremy Henwood’s memorial bench.  Have two glued up and drying (hoping this glue works), waiting for grout. Yea, me!!
