If you believe it can't be done, at least don't get in the way of the person who is doing it.- Unknown

I haven't been creating cards lately, but I DO have new stamps & paper to play with!
This is what it was doing Friday morning when I got up!

Those are my gardens....tomatoes & peppers & parsley on the left.

Potatoes & peas on the right!

Bird bath, fire pit & chairs behind!

I just washed 20(!?) loads of laundry today, cause I had everything in the house out to cover the gardens, flowers, shrubs, etc. for the last 2 nights!!

Sheets, blankets, towels! YOI!

I also took this picture of the Wild Rose.....the snow & cold didn't seem to bother them!

Yesterday I spent the day in Peace River.

Just let me have a pity party, sob story.....whatever, then it will be out of my system!

Yesterday was the fifth time I took my vehicle in to get the cruise control fixed.

I have a new computer, a couple new switches for Lord knows what,

and I still don't have cruise control!

I know, I know, that's kinda petty of me when so many others have bigger problems, and I get it.

Makes me happy that no cruise control is ALL I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT!

I go on holidays on Thursday.....I really needed cruise control!

Okay, I think I'm done!

Still have the damn dust problem too!

K, really, that's it!

Ray's seeding the back 40.

My internet's not working properly, so I can't look back to see if I've told you this already....just chalk it up to age!

I've been helping him fill the seed drills.

All 16 or 18 feet of them.

By the pail.

5 gallon pail.

Of peas!

He should be done tonight!

I did ALL the laundry today.

Made a rhubarb crisp, rhubarb cream pie, and an ordinary rhubarb pie, that's going to the freezer tomorrow!

I made a lasagne, hauled boards over from the back 40 to build boxes for our rhubarb, Ray's sister came for supper. I helped fill the seed drill. For. The. Last. Time.

Had my jacuzzi, with a glass of wine left over from supper!

Okay, if you don't laugh at these next pictures I'll give you a really good rhubarb crisp recipe!

I never said I was a dog groomer!

Poor Shadow is bothered by fleas, and yes, her and I have had our treatment for the month, but she's so matted, I got some flea powder, and we've been cutting hair, and rubbing the powder in!

She's pretty good, she sits real nice most of the time, and she gets up & leaves when she's had enough.

The line under her collar!?

She scratched most of her hair off, right down to her hide, so I give her a brush cut under her collar, almost up to her ears!!

I think she's way cooler!

Okay, here's the recipe!

Rhubarb Crisp

6 Cups washed, dried & diced rhubarb

3 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup flour

1 1/2 cup sugar

2 Tbsp. Butter or Margarine

3/4 cup whipping cream

2 cups brown sugar

1 1/2 cups flour

1 1/2 cups rolled oats

1 cup margarine

4 tsp. Cinnamon

Mix eggs, flour, sugar, butter & cream together; mix in rhubarb and put in greased 9 X 13 baking dish.

Mix remaining ingredients together, and spread on top.

Enjoy........it's our favorite rhubarb crisp, and I'm always giving out the recipe!

I'll try to get on before I leave on Thursday!

Ta ta for now!

I'm only on here cause I had to send a friend a recipe!
I got stuff to do outside!
We're supposed to have thunder showers, one can only hope!

Saturday we went to the 'Wedding Party'!
Remember!? I made THIS card and debated about what to put in the little pocket!?
This is what I came up with!
I made it on paper in Publisher, then copied it onto cardstock.

Here's a picture of the happy couple on their wedding day in Jasper.

My pictures were all dark from Saturday night, so this is a picture of a picture that was in the coolest center piece on the tables!

I got to bring one home!

The O/S needed some cheering up this week!

He misses his momma!

Know how I know?

He called me!?

He's an e-mail-texting kinda guy....and I'm all right with that!

So I whipped him up a card, hopefully it makes him smile!

I stamped the darn sentiment the wrong way on the tag!

I guess it's the right way if you pull it out left handed!

I put this on the inside!

I had recently seen this on a wall hanging, and it made me breathe in and breathe out!

Fact: Keep Calm and Carry On was a poster produced by the British government in 1939 during the beginning of World War II, intended to raise the morale of the British public in the event of invasion. It was little known and never used.

I thought he might like the military reference.

Earlier this week, Ray & I went to the back 40 to look for buffalo skulls;

we found 3 in not too bad shape.

Shadow comes along for the run!

When we got back to where the tractor was, Shadow needed to cool off by sitting in the slough!

Then she actually laid in it, but that picture wouldn't load!

Sunday I mowed grass & whipper snipped.

Okay, I caused a dust storm with the mower!

So far this week after work, I've put a top on my gardens, they're raised beds....damn cats think they're huge kitty litter boxes until the stuff grows!

I put a solar light in the outhouse!
I've watered the gardens and flowers daily!
Dug out the hammock, was going to get the swing, but it's a 2 man job!
Had supper with a friend last night, and went & cleaned the flower beds at the library with 3 other Friends of the Library, and the librarian. Big job......I'm tired & hurtin today!
They are full of perennials, overgrown & straggly at the same time!
Went to my friend Stellas & got some rhubarb!
Today I've done the dishes & scrubbed the siding by the back door, but whatever's on it is NOT coming off!
I think I'm done!
Might just look at the mail or read....and of course I'll be watering things if it doesn't rain!
I've even heard the S word for tomorrow or Saturday! (snow)
Well I'd better go, I'll talk to you later, and REALLY! I. HAVE. BEEN. VISITING. YOUR. BLOGS!
Can't comment on lots of the them these days!
So sorry, guess I'm a lurker!

Hope you're all good!

Ta ta for now!
