Wednesday, Yikes!

 

Dang that adulthood and dang me as I spent the day in the yard and not in the shop where I should have been. Now I must pay the price.

I have to have all camping gear out sometime today and also get to the store for what I need.  We will pack up tomorrow morning and be on the road by one. Why did I procrastinate? Now I must hurry and pay the price. But I knew that and did it anyway.  So, no one to blame but myself.

Dan and I put in a removable temporary fence to keep out whatever was eating on the garden. It needed to be done.  We also found three holes that were made and got those fixed to keep out the little creatures. I planted 15 plants in the flower garden and replanted the radishes. 

I am still trying to fill the long flower bed with perennial's that I find on sale. Always look at Wal mart and Home Depot for mark down plants that are past their bloom time.  That is where I get most of my plants.  I have hundreds of tulip bulbs that Dan and Sissie pulled up I will plant next year.  Also, I will stop by places that have perennial's that have gone to seed and ask to dig up a few.  No one has ever said no.  Most are grateful to get rid of a few plants that are taking over.

I picked Signe' up early at a place where she is getting the oil changed in the truck.  I took her to work and will go back and get her for lunch.  Then I have to go pick up the kids from school and William and James will spend the night here. I have to get the piles done today, 

Here is the list.

1. alter two shirts

2. alter a pile of hems 

3. hem and dress and a pair of pants

4. hem 4 pairs of pants

5. fix and mend Indian regalia

Then

1. check pantry and freezer for camp food

2. go to stare to buy what we need

3.pull out tents and sun them also camp chairs and cots

4. check flashlight batteries, and make sure all kids have their own.

5. find the whistles they have to wear around their necks

6. make a list of all the crap one needs it is a long list

I get to do this with 3 kids in tow that should be interesting. I have never set up camp without Joel, so this will be a first.

Pray for Kim, she will need it.

Have a great and productive day

God is good

Kim
