Flash Floods

Uggh! It finally stopped raining-through the holes in my roof.  The garage flooded, but judging from the pictures on television, it could have been a lot worse.  Yet again I have been thrown off by the weather.  I shall return tomorrow.   :)

Current Garden Pics



As I said before, MOST of my garden has rebounded from that crazy hail storm. The tomato plants are going nuts. We were thinking that our backyard probably hasn't been used for such a purpose
in god only knows how long. The plants are getting everything they need. There are also
lots of earthworms in our yard. That blank spot is where I lost two green bean plants that were not very tall yet. Only one sunflower survived, but it has really taken off. It'll be taller than Molly soon. I also have tiny green beans growing. I'm so excited!

Gato-cicles


Ever since I found out that Gatorade has stopped using high fructose corn syrup I have been wanting to get some. I finally did, and it tastes SO much better. And frankly, it makes awesome frozen treats!

Zoo

We went to the zoo yesterday with our cousins.  It wasn't unbearably hot, but it is summer all the same.  :)

Hot

No air conditioning.  Too hot to blog.  Might go to mall.  Ahh! Not the mall.  No money anyway.  Sigh!

Grrr

Molly and I slept until ten. I am really not in the mood.  Sorry.

My garden has mostly recovered from the hail storm.  There are bunches of blooms on everything. I'm excited again.  Only one of Molly's sunflowers survived, but it is huge now.  I haven't messed with the flower bed and the grass is growing again. Still lots of work to do.  I meant to get the etsy stuff at least started on while Mike was off and Molly was at my mom's.  We ended up going thrift store shopping instead.  Mike got a new bike to ride to work though and he is much happier I think.  
I need to make lunch.  I'm a bit irritable due to too much coffee and not enough food. 

Pictures tomorrow.  I'll work on it tonight.

Without the Bells on My Toes

  After a week and a half of staying up late and and relaxing, I'm not too excited to get back into the grind.  I also drank too much tea and had to keep getting up to go pee until two o'clock in the morning.  Uggh! 
  I have to go see if I can get the mortgage company to sign the check we got from the insurance company so we can get the roof fixed.  I have to do laundry, and I have to reorganize the kitchen, and this is actually a bit exciting, because Mike made me some drawers for the kitchen.  Yay!  
  I am super excited about Molly attending Pre-K.  We were supposed to go enroll her on Thursday night and we totally forgot.  I felt so horrible.   I felt like such a horrible parent.   But then we went up there the next day and they were still doing enrollment, so everything was fine.  I'm so excited for her.  I wish I had my whole life ahead me again. I would do some things very differently, let me tell you.  But that stuff is for Molly to figure out for herself.  Aww, life.
  Stuff to do.  Post will be better tomorrow. Hopefully.
