Completed the rest of the 8 chapters for reading for this week and posted my discussion board posts. I also cooked a great dinner and did dishes for the folks and did three loads of laundry today. So glad the reading is done for this week. *Contented sigh

And then, and then, and then kinda day
 

Started at the bank. Grand daughter had to pee. Okay, so I send her down the hall of loan officers and she glides on through, no one said a thing.

Went the the hell on earth here in Abbotsford where parents come to drink coffee and chat with friends while abou,t 100 children scream and play in the various jungle gym stuff.

Then I went to Walmart, sped around in the scooter and enjoyed being out of the scorching weather for a couple of hours.

Finally, two of my grandchildren arrived to spend the evening/overnight and the fun started.

I am one tired, happy, woman tonight. How was your day? lol(f)(f)

I cooked food for lunches, did laundry, and mowed the rest of the day. Resting now.

I lost my passport then I found it an hour later... In that hour, I saw my entire life flash before my eyes.

Started the day about 7am had to go get my dads lawn tractor out of the woods. He mistakenly thought it was a bush hog and dropped off the front wheels in an old stump hole.

Then went to pick up a half ton of gravel for Moms driveway. Shoveled it off. Then it was to late to get ready for church.

cooked supper
washed 2 loads of clothes
grocery store

Geez isn't Sunday supposed to be a day of rest?

Donated money to RAINN. Granted, my motivation included spiting a left-wing circular firing squad I walked into last night (they apparently think a charity that fights rape, abuse, and incest is "rape culture"), so it's not entirely benevolent, but I at least like to think I can use my spite for positive ends.

Hand sanded two 8' 2x4s
Changed the bulbs in the outside motion detectors.
Picked up my order from Home Depot
Prepped and planted some blueberry cuttings and Oleifera Moringa cuttings.
Worked some more on cleaning/organizing the garage.
Replaced the spigot & washers on my 2 gallon Igloo water jug, then sanitized it along with the 1 gal. & 1/2 gallon jugs in preparation for camping and/or hurricane season.

Thought about washing and waxing my truck. Haven't made it that far yet, perhaps tomorrow.

I got some of my reading done for class; cooked two large meals today and cleaned the kitchen up after each; took Grace out into the heat to get some energy worn off; went out on an expedition with my sister - we found a picnic spot in the local State Park to take my parents who are 89 and 95 years old (the bathrooms had to be close), searched out the local Amish store for produce, got some ice cream; then came home and took clippings off my herbs (today harvested dill and tarragon tomorrow plan on doing parsley and basil), dried them, and put them into storage jars.

Today has been a busy one! Read 1 chapter more for school and posted discussion board post, made cauliflower salad, homemade marinara sauce, and hardwood smoked turkey sausage. Tonight I will work in the garden. My brother in law finally got it all tilled. It is over 90 degrees so will wait for the sun to drop down in the sky some. Still need to get some more cuttings off of my herbs too and get them dried and put away. Busy busy...no moss growing under my feet.

Finished one more week of work; two more to go before a big ass break!

Some work stuff.
Built a few legos, ate some chocolate chip cookies.
Such is my day spent with a five year old :)

After trying out dozens of mattresses, I succeeded in convincing myself I don't need a new one. This makes me happy as it saves me money, avoids the disruption in my household routine, and lets me know I made a wise choice the last time I bought one. :)

Yesterday, after working and commuting for 12 hours I worked on the truck, made dinner and lunch then cleaned the kitchen.

I got thru a sit down with the auditor's at work with nary a scratch. It was a good day.

I did laundry yesterday, loads and loads of it, how two people and two fur kids can have so much I have no idea.
