What can I say.......Happy Monday!

  • Happy last day before the last day of June....
  • I have had a wonderful summer so far.
  • It's going way too fast.
  • My kids have all been gone the last 4 days.
  • I'm working fast & furious on my house
  • My raised gardens are doing great
  • I have a ton of raspberries getting ripe!
  • The birds are eating my cherries & grapes :(
  • I made & canned strawberry jam. :)
  • I can't believe the year is 1/2 over
  • I can't believe summer vacation is almost 1/2 over
  • I still have a ton of things I want to accomplish before the end of July
  • Leon is so busy with jobs, current & coming up, it feels like a freight train coming at us.
In conversation with some of my blogging friends, I've stated that I just don't stay in my p.j.'s in the morning. I live in town....I have family & friends here, my husband has his own business we run out of the house, UPS, FED-EX & the mailman often come to the door........

As I put on my FB page this morning,
"It's good to be prepared... alert, watching & ready".

(This is a very good thought spiritually, but a very good one in a natural sense too, especially when you have sisters like mine)

Because you never ever know who might show up at your house and walk right in unannounced at 7:30 a.m.


At least they brought me breakfast & presents!
