Blue Skies!

 I had almost forgot what the heat of the sun felt like on my skin. I swear it has only rained for what feels like a very very long time. Everything here was flooding and I am sure I am not the only one who was more than happy to have the sun back out!

 I was finally able to plant my rose bushes, and some veggies into the ground. Woot! Tomorrow should be sunny to but lucky me, I get to work! (not sayin' I hate my job btw... Just saying it would be nice to be out and enjoy the sun another day) So I had to pack as much into today as I could. This meant getting fast food for dinner, which the kids were not upset about.

 So I got my radishes planted beside the house, and I also did 2 pumpkin plants, and 2 cantaloupes. I am not sure if they will work where I put them, but I figured there is room for them to vine, and if they don't make it, well I am not out much and I know better for next year!

 The rest of my garden will go in soon:

 I was trying to get some praise from the kids on a job well done about the front of my house, I called Hannah out to check it out. She exclaimed that she was glad too, that the holly bush was gone. "it looks so much better, and now... Promise and I can sneak out!" Uh what? Yeah... I then realized I bet, why the holly bush was planted in front of the window in the first place. It was very poky and now I think I am wishing I would have left it there... I might just plant more, one under each window, especially Destiny's!

 So that was the fun of my day today. Getting down and dirty in the mud. More rain and storms called for this weekend and then a week of Sunny skies and warm temperatures. I am ready for some summer weather!

 Why is it when you do something wrong, people will point it out, over and over and notice every detail, but the things that you do right... They go unnoticed for ages?  Training at work this week has been tiring. I have been super busy so its hard to actually train someone... I have to get my tables taken care of. I have the kids just getting into the swing of things with school, and training myself to go to bed early has proven unsuccessful. I basically feel over worked and under slept. As I mentioned on facebook I think there are plenty of hours in the day... I need more hours at night, to work with....  Kids are all adjusting well to school life again. Still going to sleep easily at night, which I know wont last so I am enjoying it while I can. I cannot believe I have a child who is a sophomore this year. I am still not believing that actually.  Tomorrow is super busy, we have Dr visits, I have blood work done, Girl scout meeting to attend and then a split ...

The pitter patter of little (annoying) feet!

 I remember when my kids were little and innocent and said super cute things. It still happens sometimes, but not nearly as often. They no longer pitter patter, they clomp. Things change, kids grow.  Luckily I still have my little neighbor girl Adriana. She comes over to play with the big kids quite often and is almost always a hoot. From taking her to the "lime berry" to just silly things she says. Tonight was one of those nights.  I have not slept much and wanted a nice relaxing bath... As I am headed in there, Adriana asks me what I am doing... I tell her I am about to take a bath. "can I take one with you?" Uh.... I have  a vision of myself as Micheal Jackson...No baby, you cannot take a bath with me.... So I am in the tub, and after a while Tim came in to bring me towels... So he was in there visiting with me, and Adriana knocked and asked if she could come in... Tim told her no. "Why? Because Clorie is NAKED??? What are YOU doing in there TIM!?" ...
