We are still here, still busy, and still finding more and more projects to do. I think the projects are actually finding us, but we always find things to do! I stay busier than I like and most days I have no idea what I need to do first. That is life though and I try to stay positive no matter what.I am kind of back to purging and decluttering. I am trying to get Shali’s room packed up. I…
Another week gone by in a blur…I have an observation to make though. I am sure you all probably know this, but there is nothing like having company or family coming over to make sure you get a lot of cleaning up to do in a very short amount of time!Mowing had to be done after getting some much needed rain.

Whew! Another week gone! I swear I am going to figure out how to slow down time…The kids were a busy bunch this last week. They went to their dad’s house for two days. Paige drove some more Driver’s Ed and worked at the pool (she is a life guard). Dane went to his aunt and uncle’s house on Saturday with his grandparents.On Sunday, the kids and I went to my parents’ house to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary! Happy…

I think I am going to hit them with a shot of fertilizer. My carrots did not come up very well either. However, I hit up some end of the season sales. I planted more tomatoes, peppers, raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries. I will probably go…
It has been two weeks again and time is flying! I mean to do this every week and hopefully I will again soon. I am lacking pictures for this post, but stay tuned and I will have more!The clothesline is done! Rob finished that last week with minimal assistance from me. I love it because it is a little higher than the last one and it has a center support post. I can hang more laundry on it without the…
One of our big projects this year became putting a fence around the garden. I was having a serious problem with rabbits and possibly deer. Never mind the dog that also liked running at full force through the garden. Since I live in a wide-open rural area surrounded by farmland, the critters don’t have a problem finding my garden nor eating what I planted. I lost 22 tomato and 12 pepper plants to them earlier this Spring. It was time to…
