First Coffee

Friday morning we were lucky to be able to do this...

                               Drink our first coffee on our new patio!

                             

The first of many coffees! LOL

 

Now we need to get set and start landscapping.

If only we culd have a couple of days without the rain....

 

By the end of the afternoon we had steps.

 

I can't wait to take a dip and then veg out on the patio

 

Now if I can just get the water just right!

Oh and a ladder, a ladder would be nice....

 

Have a great day

 

See you soon :)

Rain,rain

OMG!!! It's still raining! The Weather network just forcasted overcast skies....SIGH! I go to the veggie patch and worry because the only thing growing is the lettuce and the arugula. We had some ants in the house Sunday, but now that I,m on official antwatch, I can't find any....We had some hail yesterday and that caused quite a panic in the feline population!

Belive it or not one of Dan's co-worker asked if I could give her some brown eyed susans and Alaska daisies! I could only laugh! I hope she has a big border! I'm kind of disoriented ,because the rain keeps me from working outside, so I'm scrambling for some things to do...Right now I'm reorganizing the Pyrex, reorganizing my Etsy merchandise and trying to have an internet garage sale on Craiglist....

I included a video of a rain concert (amazing). Also 2 pics of vintage thrifted linens from last week....I'm always amazed when I find new vintage things. The tea towel was never used (It's still crispy) and the bath towel was barely used. My mom would make us use the towels until you could see through them!!!

Remember that you have until the 18th to leave a comment for the Pyrex giveaway! Otherwise I'll send them both to the Netherlands....LOL

Rain,rain go away!

As usual the pic is unrelated....It's a rock that I spotted in somebody's yard (yes I sneaked in...lol)

I know for sure that it rained here on Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday (ok that's today...). What a strange day, you had bright sunshine for 10-15 minutes then a big shower out of the blue...

I tried to garden (because while away the garden EXPLODED!) For god's sake I was away only for 3 days! A lot of plants needed tutering and I had tons of new weeds (Where do they come from? Do I have little weed leprechauns waiting to plant weeds while I sleep???) And of course the pool was way too full, so I had to backwash....

I managed to dehydrate half a crate of strawberries (local....from just around the corner) and then I vacuum sealed them. They will taste dyn-o-mite with my winter oatmeal!

I can't wait to eat my beans and cukes. I will sow more beans tomorrow and prepare for the new week that's just around the corner....Later!
