its time to get caught up here...

this is the biggest one of the rescue litter that came in...

and the four that belong to Myra...

big difference when the mama has good food...

this is DH's little buddy...

he has attitude...

so we have been doing babies...

and getting out a bit, too...

leaves, leaves and more leaves...

and the trees haven't turned here yet...

and things are so dry...

we have missed all the rain in the past month...

the loungers are out here now...

Craig bought a sofa bed for his room and his full sized bed is on the deck...

I got so many shots of the sedum...

I love this plant...

it will take us right into fall and beyond...

it will go from this to a rust orange for Halloween and Thanksgiving...

and it will stand all winter...

in snow, in ice...

and this is a good place to be when its cooler outside...

letting the cone flowers seed...

had the mower guy come Friday and he sure stirred up some dust, but the yard is level again...

do you have an old pair of flip flops that you just keep hanging onto?

these are mine...

good for yard work now...

and we baby sat this one this weekend...

look at all her milk spots...

mom's milk is very rich...

and then this morning, while we had clouds moving across us...

we hit the island...

getting things ready for what's coming...

mowed off the iris and raked the walnut leaves out...

dead headed the roses...

DH has been hauling buckets of water to them every other night...

and we cleared out...

moved things around...

and ended up with this...

the swing is now where the bench was, and the bench is now facing the field...

DH brought me flowers on one his trips to dump leaves on the burn pile...

and there you go...

moved the rabbit, too...

it will time in the spring to cut this rose bush back some...

you need to do that every 5-7 years in the spring...

mr rabbit...

the sun has come out since this morning...

and its nasty already out there...

Craig and Daphne...

we have 3-4 more nasty days...

and then back to the 70s...

so, that's the last few days in a nutshell...

besides maybe having what Craig had last weekend...

its been good...

feeling better today...

but I did get a trip into Walmart yesterday and then snagged a root beer float on the way home...

;)

life is good...

good morning...

not sure if I am awake or not, but here goes...

had busy days the last couple of days...

and I did get to watch the baby yesterday afternoon...

the mower guy should be showing up this morning, so need to get stuff out of his way before he gets here...

there's laundry to do again...

I don't get how it multiplies over night...

Craig and I cooked up a storm on Wednesday, so there's still left overs for supper tonight...

it feels like 'poof' and the week is gone for me...

I have got to come up with a plan for the weekend...

we don't have too many more before harvest starts, so they have to count...

our hot weather is back, but the nights are cooler than they were...

I am hoping in a couple more weeks, we can have the fall temperatures back here...

and I can wear sweatshirts and warm socks...

and turn the ac off once and for all...

I have been having a time with my allergies this week...

the pollen count is way up there, so we could really use some rain...

its all dusty and things are turning brown...

watering every other day...

happy weekend to you...

do what you can outside...

it won't be long until we are all stuck inside going bonkers!

;)

the rest of the weekend finds...

a long brown, corduroy pillow...

got it at a rummage sale, with the other buttons...

I can sew them back on this week... 

rummage sale find...

and another rummage sale find...

the little star says out on the other side...

I think I might hang this on the front door this year...

Dollar General...

green and purple lights...

I always use purple, but haven't seen the green before...

I do not like orange...

rummage sale find...

for a candle...

Dollar General on clearance...

just over a dollar...

I bought one of these in a smaller size last year and paid almost $7 for the little one...

rummage sale finds again...

santa light and some greenery...

Dollar Tree...

candles...

large ones...

and at the Dollar General...

I picked up a coupon keeper and a new address book...

my other one is decades old and so needs updated...

and a couple of movies for $1 each at the rummage sale...

I got them for Craig, but we will watch them, too...

we can watch these when we get snowed in this winter...

and I think that about wraps up all the new stuff that got hauled in here over the weekend...

well, there is the 400 set of white lights from the rummage sale...

and a banquet table and card table with 2 chairs that we got for Christmas Is A Child...

need to pick those up, too, this weekend...

so there you go...

there is another post after this one of the babies that I put up this morning, too...

can you tell its one of my alone days?

I get so much more done when they guys are gone...

on here anyway...

so, I am running a little behind and need to get my shower...

and probably dressed...

you know how it is...

;)
