Monday, Couple days off and exhausted.

 Can't say why but this is how I feel.  Haven't blogged for a couple days, just took the weekend off because I was too busy!  Hold it weekend's are for me right?  Wrong....

Started out with two bridesmaid dresses that had to be fixed by Saturday morning and a Saturday morning Bridal fitting for an out of town bride.  Got those things done on very little sleep mind you as Kelsa had a bad cough and was up late.  She was trying to sleep and never opened her eyes but threw herself around and cried pitifully off an on.  So grammy stayed up watched TV and held her.  She was much better on Sunday.  Saturday afternoon I got a call from a desperate client needing a suit altered and pressed for a 9 o clock job interview today.  That was done and picked up after church on Sunday.  I swear pressing that things that had been wadded up in a bag was harder than the alteration.

After church I came home to a mess and made 12 dozen Swedish meatballs, and roasted some garden squash with cauliflower and then made up a strawberry, rhubarb pie. I had brought rhubarb home from my in laws, so it along with the pie crusts were in the freezer.  We took dinner up to Daughters and then Nate was able to come and eat on his lunch break as he was on patrol that day.  I was able to use up a small bag of potentates that were sprouting and I froze 8 dozen meatballs for dinner later.

Hubs spent the weekend packing for a 4 day camping trip with a buddy.  SO happy he can do this, but he could not remember where he had put anything and about drove me crazy.  I don't put away his things and I have no idea where he puts his stuff.  I helped where I could, but I was happy to see him take off.  I don't have to cook for the next 4 days yippee!  Cold cereal dinners here I come. I am going to insist he put all the camping things he needs in one spot when he gets home.  Don't want to live through that again.

The piles in the shop are out of control and that will be my concentration today. Plus I am going to clean and give it a good vacuum.  It is time. Not having to cook dinner and getting to control the TV means I can sew into the night.  I have checked the chickens and will have to water this evening.  I noticed that Hubs was over watering some of my pots so I am going to take back that duty.  Geraniums (the deer won't eat those) like to be soaked and then allowed to dry out completely, he has not allowed them to dry out and they are losing their blooms. It has been nice having him water but not at the cost of the plants. I am also going to spray weed while he is gone as nothing has died and he insists that they are on their way out and they are bigger and badder than ever!

We are having a big get together on the 4th and I want the weeds gone!!!!!! He has sprayed twice now and no results.  I cannot go out and hand weed all these rock beds.  I hand weeded all the flower beds in our old place but here they must be sprayed. I woman with a mission. Do any of you have missions this week?  If so what are they?

Well I am off to get tome swing done.  Wish me luck I so need it.

Have a great and productive day staying positive while you are in the negative.
