The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of good ideas.-Linus Pauling

I just don't know where to start.
There's no 'normal' at my house!
Kids were home on the weekend.
Here's Vanessa, ready to go quading.


We had awesome food, and got a lot of work done!
Winterized the camper, folded & put away tarps, planted a shrub, etc., etc.!
Visited and laughed!
Here's one of the things we laughed about.


Vanessa's footwear!

Here's what she brought me (said it was from Kalen for doing the house)!


Isn't it A-MAZ-ING!
I LOVE IT!

It's been another crazy week, even though it's been a short one!
I went out for dinner with the GF's last night instead of making salsa.
I came home with salsa as my mission.
The bags of cat food were still on the step, so I delivered them to each shed, fed the cats & put the food in the containers.
Fed Shadow.
Put wood in the outdoor furnace....yeah, it's running already...gonna be a long winter!
Gave a lot of the trees & shrubs a pail of water, then emptied the 250 gallon (or whatever) water tank.
I came in, and dealt with the left over turkey....it's in the freezer, it will be soup this weekend!
I then put ALL my tomatoes, skinned and not into freezer bags, and hauled them out to the freezer.
I did the dishes & thought about baking for the Open House at the library tomorrow night.......and that's all I did! Thought about it!
Decided I took my Silent Auction item in today, I shouldn't have to donate an item & baking!
So tomorrow night I'll stop at the library, bid on a few things, play nice with everyone for about 45 minutes, then I'm going with some GF's to the movie!

Got one more busy weekend then next Friday I'm off to my mother's to meet with the O/S!
Hopefully by the time I come home, the woodshed will be full! hahahahaha
Like it will do that by itself!
Been working on a few projects, one Christmas related, and one Halloween!

Better go, talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

There is No Such Thing in Anyone's Life as an Unimportant Day.-Alexander Woollcott

Hello peeps!
Hope you had a wonderful Easter if you celebrate it!
Ours was good, Vanessa & Shawn were here!
We had ham, scalloped potatoes, sweet potato casserole (it's to die for; like eating candy!), vegies, hot cross buns and I made a pineapple sauce for the ham I wasn't too fussy about; so yesterday it got turned into muffins and a pineapple loaf! For dessert I made a Red Ribbon Delight or something to that effect.....one word....awesome!
Vanessa brought me my treasures from Michaels!
I needed some ribbon, hahahaha, really, I needed adhesive!
So she brought me 6 packages of Tombow adhesive runner permanent refills! 3 in each pack!
I tell ya, adhesive is hard to come by around here!
She brought my popcorn from Costco!
Big Orville Redenbacher jugs!
And a wonderful 3 tier spiral planter for outside...that was for Mother's Day!

There was an afternoon of quading!





The elk have made it to the back 40!


This is Shadow coming out of the creek, and she took a flying leap, and got me soakin wet!


Her & I are trying to clean out the willows.
It's still pretty wet though!
It did get to +15 C today, so was almost tropical.
Didn't need a coat, that's for sure!


This is what got delivered to work today.
Apparently it's Secretary's Week!
I love my job!

I'm also ready to get back to creating stuff!
Had a nice break!

Can't buy tickets to go see Kalen until July.
He only knows 3 months ahead what his schedule is!

Better go, talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!
