Guess what we are doing? Yes, cutting up this big tree. Anyone need firewood or wood for furniture? What a huge undertaking it is now. However, 30-40 years ago, it would have taken 2 days and been fun!
Who knew that Spring Cleaning would involve being outdoors chopping up a Juniper tree? Now if you have nothing better to do, come on over! hehehe
Actually, we have friends that were scheduled to come over tomorrow to celebrate everyone Anniversary. We are going to Salt Grass for early dinner. They are all coming with chainsaws now. And with Blessings all around us, we hope someone will need wood and haul it off for us as we have no bulk pickup in our city of Fate.
So... I am starting the weekend now because it may be a day or two before I get back here. Hopefully with different pictures from our backyard. Blessings & Hugs and yes, I am still looking for that fairy to help.
Blessings upon Blessings this day and every day! My kids are having so much fun at the beach.
At 5:30 this morning we had thunder and lightning but not for long. Just enough for the dog to be upset. We, as usual, lost electricity for about 30 minutes. Hubby even thinks he heard hail for a couple of minutes. Storms were moving very quickly and were gone in about 20 minutes but left 1/2" of rain. Finally got coffee made so all is right in our home. 6 dogs & hubby are napping now.
You know what they say in Texas (and everywhere for that matter)... if you don't like the weather... freezing, raining, winds blowing, hot sun, storms... just wait and it will change in the blink of an eye!
When my cactus blooms at Christmas, it is a Christmas cactus. When it blooms at Easter, it is an Easter cactus. And yes, mine usually blooms at Christmas and Easter and even at odd times throughout the year.
Now back to laundry, lunch and various other "fun" chores. Just grateful I can do them even if it takes longer than it use to for me. Now where is that fairy?
My girls, the animal whisperer and the track star, are on spring break vacation this week. Wayne called earlier today but we couldn't FaceTime when he called. Hopefully I will get pictures of the Florida beach soon. Even though we have beautiful sunshine today and they have rain.
I told you we were keeping the granddogs. So here is the cocker/poodle, Cami, and the 3 pound ruler of all dogs, Lily, aka "the little shit". She loves biting at ankles and keeping guard at the doggy door to NOT let anyone back inside.
I also told you spring flowers are popping up and here is proof. The beautiful sunshine and right at 70 degree weather will surely bring out more soon. I did notice that some of the rose bushes were putting out new growth from the bottom. Sure hope you are off to a tremendous week.
My girls are on Spring Break this week. So the family came by and dropped off our granddogs, Cami and Lily. Now we have 6 dogs living here. They are headed to Pensacola, Florida.
We were cloudy, overcast and drizzled most of the day. We still have clouds east of Dallas but west of Dallas is blue sky and the sun is shining bright! So we watched the Longhorns win another baseball game against South Carolina. I sure like that we have a couple more hours before it begins to get dark. Yesterday afternoon I changed all 16 of my manual clocks. Today I am replacing the rechargeable batteries in all 12 of my candles. They are set to come on every evening near dark and stay on for 6 hours.
I still am playing catch up at home from my 3 days of working. My computer room/office desk looks like a bomb went off. Good news however, our neighbor is gone on spring break too and we get to collect eggs all week. Woo Hoo! Sure hope you have a wonderful week ahead and share your smile with others!
