Busy Saturday

Whew!  Have you been busy today too? 

We had a beautiful day today – bright, hot and no rain.  My hubby tackled the jungle-that-is-our-yard.  He even used the weed eater to clear out around my plants.  It looks wonderful!  I just love a freshly mowed yard.  It gives me great joy!

I worked on our little back porch.  Our washer and dryer are there, as well as shelves for tools, hardware, the dog kennel, old therapy equipment, empty boxes and water jugs, vacuum cleaners, brooms, mops, ironing board…well, you get the idea!  It is certainly a "catch all" for us, and it needed a little work. 

I threw away as many things as I thought I could get away with ; ) and boxed up a few things to give away.  The rest I tried to rearrange and minimize.  It certainly looks better and we have a bigger "path" to walk through.  It could really use a complete reorganization, but it will do for now.  I also swept, gave the rugs a good shake and brought in the finished laundry. 

Doug also worked on our second car…the one that doesn't work, but that we need to get rid of.  He was able to move it so that he could mow under it, so it doesn't get all "snakey" under there, as my mom says. LOL!

I cleaned out the frig and worked on a grocery list.  Then Doug cleaned up, dressed Isaac and they headed to the grocery store.  Isaac always loves shopping.  It's one of his favorite things to do.

My mom and dad worked outside today, too; so we were able to fellowship a little over the fence, just like housewives used to do in the olden days. : )  It is one of my favorite things about living next door to them.

This evening we're resting and enjoying some fresh produce that Doug found this morning at a local produce stand.  The nectarines are just yuMMy! : )

I hope you have a good Sunday.
