Good Morning, everyone!
I'm sorry I'm so late with this - blogging is new to me and I've been here at the Farm, working on the rummage sale so I do have a bit of an excuse...
I really missed our Tuesday morning - I hate to see summer end and missing all of you brought it's ending into reality - fall is here and winter will be right around the corner.
How are you all doing? I met Joan here Monday morning and we gabbed and walked and had a great time - but no walking yesterday as the rain had started - and it's a lovely soft rain right now but I'm hoping we'll be able to go tomorrow.
I'm pretty tired - we did start the tuck-pointing on our house last weekend - they ground out about 3/4 inch of the mortar and the house looked like an excavation at Pompei - my brick red house was beige - what a mess! (My poor dog Missy is like a dust-mop - you really don't want to pet her, she's so gritty but she needs some reassurance with all the chaos so she pesters you unmercifully)
And Larry is in total obsessive mode - he's working harder than the people we hired - hope he lives through this remodel....This weekend they apply the new mortar - if the rain will allow - then next week-end they finish the job.
Our house-guests moved out Monday - Heather was finding the early morning commute to Addison to be a real pain - our two dogs really miss Sydney - and so do I - she is a real live wire and actually had Missy playing (Sunny is too old and dignified for that). I'm ready to start taking the kitchen apart to begin demolition but my energy has been sapped with the rummage sale - it's the "Year of the Toy" and toys have been my responsibility so I've got some work to do....
And our eBay room looks like a cyclone touched down - we are finding treasures and getting them up for sale but there's lots to do...
And so my concentration on eating well has been problematic at best - my hope is that some weight will go with all the activity but for right now, survival is pretty much my goal and Pop's is pretty quick and horribly good and , of course, not too healthy...
So that's my world right now - how 'bout you?
Have a great day and come out to see us if you get a chance - the barn is open from 9:00 to 4:00ish and you can always bring some stuff that cluttering up your life and needs a new home....
