Monday, Plans for the week!

Have you ever done this.  I do it all the time. I would be afraid, but I have been doing since childhood, so I think it is part of my make up.  

The green house is finished or at least put together.  I started to take things and put them in the house, but I have done no organization yet. There is water and electric within 2 feet and I plan on having those run into the house. 

I am very happy about this new development. Sissie was telling me to appreciate how much I have gotten done this year on my old homestead.  I have the garden area I wanted and now a greenhouse I have always wanted.  I bought a new mower, and a new tiller, that I can use.  They are paid for, and I should be proud of myself. I am.

The mower shed where I keep garden tools, needs to be organized now that I have pulled all the planting thing out.  It is going to be so nice to have a place for everything and more space and organization.

Dan and I tore into the remainder of the garden and put that to bed for the season.  I only left the winter carrots. My back has been hollering from all the work we did out there. But it looks great and is waiting for next year. Now I have to bring in all the plants I want to winter over and get all the flower boxes emptied and stored. Lots of work left to do.

However, I had a long list of really big projects, and I now have two of them done. One was to detail and clean out the car, and it looks brand new.  The next was to close down the garden. Both done. Other things that need to be done before winter are:

1. clean chicken coop and put down new straw.

2. Empty all flower boxes and chicken dirt into garden beds and till

3. clean out the garage and wipe everything down. I believe I need another set of shelves in the garage.

4. Organize the green house and put all the plants I want to save into it.

5. Get help putting water and electric into green house.

Talked to Sluggy this weekend and she is having knee replacement surgery in a couple weeks, so that blows up the trip Sis, and I had planned.  We can't visit while she is recovering, that surgery is too painful and she won't be able to have any fun.  Might have to put it off until next spring, but I was so

looking forward to seeing her and Dan. Dang! I would rather she get the surgery so she can do more and be in less pain, so for that I am grateful.

I have a wedding dress and a bridesmaid dress to get done in the next couple of days.  Also a few piles.  But the shop is so strewn with fabric right now, so I think I need to pay attention to that mess and get it organized. Sissie is coming back here to sew aprons, so she says.

So today is about getting things cut out and cleaning up the shop so I can concentrate.

Oh, by the way I have not spent any money in 5 days. I have had 5 no spend days in a row. I guess when I put my mind to something I can do it. The only place I have gone in the last 5 days is down to Sissies and this has saved on gas.

I am hoping to get another $400.00 in savings this week and also hoping not to have to put any money into the checking account, that might be a pipe dream.  I have those a lot. There are a few little bills that have come in the I need to pay.  It is always something.  Plus, I need another manicure and need to call my buddy and see if she needs a refresh manicure. There is always a way you can spend money isn't there.

Well, I am off to cause trouble, how about you.  Any plans?

Have a great and productive day

God is good
