running behind...

wanted to get out early and get done what we could...
weeding today and a trip to the deli...
taking the babies out to play this afternoon...
because we have 10 days of heat coming in...
and my behind will not be out here for awhile...
so here are a few of the photos I took today...
(I took 300+)
so I would have something to post besides housework...
we weeded just about everywhere...
and watered...
it was cold out this morning...
this is before...
now this is a work in progress...
DH and Craig think we need enough pavers to do the whole walkway out to the road...
and we are going to redo the driveway and get smaller gray chip gravel...
there is just no extra money in the budget this summer...
so things are on hold until fall and all the overtime...
and we sat and talked and played with the dogs and cats...
I threw on a denim shirt to begin with, but had to take it off within a couple of hours...
carpet samples are great to sit on while you weed. plant and play in the dirt...
I got photos of 2 other towns this morning along with a crop duster and fields...
the babies playing in the shade...
tomato worm damage...
we dusted this evening after we watered...
we filled this little bucket many times...
it's great to use a small bucket for your waste...
one of the handiest things I keep in my shed...
and then we cleaned this up...
ate lunch and came out and did it again...
I am tired but wanted to cram as much outside time in as possible...
I have the next 10 days to get caught up on here...
and I will be around to visit before you can whistle dixie...
have a great night...
I'm going to sleep like a baby...

  1. What a busy day. It has been so hot around here this week that I have not had an opportunity to get work done outside. I did mow. I need to weed the garden...maybe tomorrow. Your flowers look great! Blessings!

  3. Beautiful flowers, I was just admiring all your handiwork, wishing I had the get up to go fix something around here. It is so dull and boring, most places.

    If I sat on the ground like that to weed, hubby would have to get a crane to get me up.
