Insanity?

Heat and humidity are still with us.  Sigh.  Gonna get more rain, even though we got more last night.  Almost makes me want to laugh, it's to that point of insanity.
We got more rain yesterday.  As well as through the night.

 I have had a few more unsupervised days here lately.  I don't want to run the sweeper, in fear of waking up Hubby, so cleaning is not really getting done either.  Master bath seriously needs a cleaning, but it's off the bedroom he's sleeping in.  Garage needs recycling cleaned up, but it's too close to the bedroom too.  Which leaves me to unsupervised online shopping.

 Ordered a new vacuum, carpet shampooer (badly needed), leather making kits to get started on a new venture (1/2 price), placed a small yarn order, printed out a new pattern (another new venture), ordered beeds, and a few more items for leather crafting.  Good golly get me off the computer.  What's next?  Possible unsupervised  (rescue) puppy shopping?


 Dinner?  Grilled chicken/bacon ranch kabobs with homemade ranch mix, grilled butter/herbed homegrown french breakfast heirloom radishes and a bruschetta salad (unfortunately not my homegrown tomatoes just yet).

I know what you mean about trying to be quiet while someone else in the house sleeps. Our bedroom is in close proximity to . . . well, the whole rest of the house (!) and I've always wanted a two-story house with bedrooms upstairs. Although they say sound rises so maybe that wouldn't work either. :o\ In the summer, especially, it's hard to find time on the computer to research and then find different things you want/need to order so I think you're making good use of your time. (Unsupervised though it may be!) ;o)

Sorry for the still icky weather for you! Careful on the puppy rescue - could be trouble! Really, I admire people who take in puppies - they drive me crazy! We adopted Hoover at about 7 months and housebroken - that was puppy enough for me!

Take care- hubby must be almost through this night work right?

Mama Pea, it is difficult to do quiet stuff around the house. I can't wait for the weather and Hubby's hours to change.

Debby, Hubby won't get a day off until next Thursday, and I don't know if the night shift will continue into the following week just yet.

Kristina, thanks for the smile! But good sleep is important and good for you for protecting your hubby's.

Your kabobs look fantastic! I need to hung around for your homemade ranch mix (did you post the recipe?) Sounds like just the right thing for kabobs.

Leigh, I am not sure if I posted the recipe, but will take a look and see and post the link. If not, I'll post it.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger.

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
