I have lost track of time. I think it was Sunday when we mowed the yard and we got the 3' tall area where the standing water finally dried up. Then on Monday we trimmed the 2 Vitex trees and had 3 BIG wheelbarrow loads of limbs that we dumped in the carport to cut up later.
We also cut about 10 big limbs off a tree in the front side and left them there because a cool front was due to blow in.
It was an extremely hot humid day and we were tired and sore too. So today we got the limbs cut up as we had to bundle our bulk in 3x3x3' with twine and call to have it picked up on our trash day. We don't have bulk pick up, per say, as they send another truck for that and we are limited to only 4 bundles. We have 10 bundles today.
As the cool front came through, we had a BIG gust of wind that blew the big gate Hubby made years ago inside out.
It busted out the wood that part of the latch was attached to and we had to repair that. It also blew over one of my 4 cement birdbaths. Just knocked the top upside down on the ground. Friends lost roof shingles, we haven't even checked that yet.Now, for the College World Baseball Series update. Sunday evening my Longhorns lost. Today they won. So we will play again on Thursday evening.
Barbie, I am so glad you had fun dancing and I'm jealouse too! But in a good way!
And just in case I haven't shared enough pictures yet, I'll leave you with one more. My yard at night!
Success is to wake up each morning and consciously decide that today will be the best day of your life. When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love – then make that day count
BLESSINGS AND HAPPINESS ON THIS MONDAY MORNING HAVE A FANTASTIC NEW WEEK
We went to the car show this morning and yes, it was quite warm. But there were lots of beauties, old and newer. The time it takes to build and keep them shining takes pure dedication. After that we stopped to visit a friend that lived in the area. After that I took Hubby home before I headed to WalMart to pick up a few groceries and some craft things to build my hummingbird bird bath.
After all, Saturday is Bath Day! Have you had your bath today? After looking at cars we had melted down and looked like we had just finished our bath. Starting today there are 2 college baseball games a day for the World Series. So I am headed off to watch TV.
Barbara, there aren't many things in this world any better than dancing to Country music!
Good morning. Hope you are doing well and your weekend has gotten off to a good start. All's well here. Suppose to have a bit of a heat wave coming in for tomorrow and Monday with temps over 100. But that is just typical summer weather for Oregon, goes up and down like a yo-yo... You take care of yourself, enjoy your weekend and have a great week~~ hugs, debijo
