Random Blabbering

Good morning blog land.  It's raining again here.  Just as predicted.  

We were up at the crack of dawn (5:30am).  Watched the sun rise, and the rain come down.  I spent the entire day washing up baby clothes yesterday, and practically didn't get garden work done.  I also started cleaning out my bedroom closet, which has been a yearly start and quick end.  This year may be the year it finally gets the way I want it.

Happy Homemaker Monday


I'm joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom today.  Hubby's vacation days are over now, so it's back to reality for the both of us.  Although we had lots of fun, we still did some garden and yard work.  The truck is now fixed, and we the new bumper and hitch is already planned, but first we need it for some work this week.  A biker friend we ride with is making the new bumper for us soon, and we already have the hitch (I see camping in the near future).

We have most of the 109 tomato plants planted.  We got our 53 jalapeno plants in, even though it was a swamp out there.  Just getting by one day at a time right now. More rain tomorrow.

School is out for our youngest, so we've spent some time with her over Hubby's vacation days.  Hubby and I have spent much time on the porch, making summer plans, adding to the "to-do" list, financial planning, possible future dog planning, and so forth.  The porch is now popping with color, and it's a happy place for us.
