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!

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.

So Whats up with my oddly normal life?

 Huh huh? Cus it seems that I am never ever updating my blog these days. I am such a sloth!  Things happen and I think how I should blog about them and then I figure they are not really so interesting if you were not here. Then I remember I blog for me, not really for someone else. I want to be able to remember things, to come back and go oh yeah... Those were the days. Or whatever. I can't do that if I don't blog it.  I am going to try to be more regular with the blogs again, even if its what I made for dinner, and  how my husband kept me up snoring. If it doesn't interest you, you don't have to read it right!? :)  So whats been going on? the kids are growing. I got contacts, I am not sure how I feel about them just yet. Sometimes they are great, and sometimes I feel like I have an eye full of hair. Sometimes I can see great with them in, and other times everything is blurrier than when I had  them out. Meanwhile I wear my scratched up glasses while ...

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)
