another week's end

GOSH

where do the weeks go

is time moving faster

or am I so old now

it just seems to whizz by

don't answer that!!!

I haven't posted for two days

not sure why

Yesterday we went outside and did a little gardening

husband mowed the beautiful field of flowers

which makes me very sad

but it has to be done at some point

and after last year's wild meadow

he wants to catch it before it gets too much again

I picked up all the sticks and limbs and branches that had fallen because of all the storms and high winds

and pulled those ..... weeds called

ENGLISH daisies that spread like the dickens and drive me crazy

and they share their pollen freely too

but it's all done now

until the next itme

and as always

I'm the one that has the

encounter with a

snake

it was in a patch of long grass and violets and thank goodness I saw it before I plunged my hand in and touched it

eeeewwwwwwww

I did what I always do

stop

shiver from head to toe

yell for the husband

who can't hear me because he has the mower

and run

which is a sight to behold in itself

and yell

there's a snake

a snake

a

shut it off and you'll hear me

a SNAKE

and he does what he always does

tells me to take care of it

and then asks what kind of snake it is

....

this one was dead

don't know why

so he picked it up with a shovel and threw it in the lake

another thing we always do

feed the lake

!!!!

and no I didn't run inside and grab the camera

to take a picture

eeeewwwwwwww

!!!!!!

I have also been busy over on the other blog

trying to bring it all together

and finish the first installment

my partner in this little venture

has also been busy inbetween living her real life

so I hope you go and visit her part too

there are links on the side to her part

I can't tell you how much fun it's been

and I think I will continue it for awhile

making little tiny things is for me

even if I give myself a headache and eyestrain

but it's inventive and creative

and

I like it!!!

I'm using all the things I've learnt this past year

and it's so nice to know how to do things the proper way

...

this little fellow has a dirty face because it keeps raining

and the temperature can't make up its mind

80's one day

50's the next

beautiful blue skies one day

grey overcast gloom the next

today it is the latter

but the rain is good for the plants

they are popping up all over

and this years' crop of

sedum

looks good!!!!

well, have to get to making dinner

so I'll wish you a good

whatever

and I'll see ya

on the morrow

take care folks

and thanks for stopping by
