Good Morning, All!! It's another chilly but absolutely beautiful day here - and best of all, I saw a red-wing blackbird this morning; a sure sign of spring for this area!
A belated Happy Birthday to Miss Judy; and a Welcome! to Mad Max; thanks for joining us!
Moldy, sounds like you had a great day I'm going to have to alternate my work route to drive by the rendezvous site near us as to see if they have a sign up for their annual meet as I would love to take the grands to one this year!
Took the kids to the Evil Empire last night to pick out some craft paint - we are going to do a porch planter of flowers for daughter for Mother's Day, and they had each picked out a little birdhouse to paint to add to the planter - after they are painted, I will have Hubby drill a hole in the bottom and add a dowel. While at WM, we did a wander through the clearance section and picked up several kids shirts and a pair of pants for granddaughter for $1 each; can't argue much with those prices as Goodwill and the Sallie's are higher than that!
Late start this morning as the grandkids are here - sometimes getting through breakfast takes a while I have to run them home in a bit as granddaughter has a dinner to go to with her bio moms family; then I have to go to a funeral this afternoon for a long time neighbor - I remember helping her, my mother, and another neighbor lady plant 'ditch lillies' to help prevent erosion and beautify the area; I'm thinking that it was sometime during Lady Bird Johnson's 'Keep America Beautiful' period, but could be wrong about that. There are an awful lot of those ditch lillies growing in this area still
While I'm in town to drop off the grands, I will stop by CVS to scan my card and to pick up a card for the neighbor's family, but then will hurry home to get some work done before I go to the funeral. I won't do any other shopping today as I've not had enough time to peruse the ads - or maybe I should say focus on the ads - there is a 4 year old armed with a chainsaw and boom-whacker exterminating invisible ninjas behind me as I type
For some reason, I'm feeling led to stock up on vitamins and OTC pain meds this week. All the grands are past the age of requiring the liquid ibuprofen or acetominophen and I had donated all that I had left in stock; but, again, I feel an urgency to stock back up. No little ones currently or anticipated to be in the picture, but a bottle of each isn't going to break the bank - especially if I can find a sale
Off to clean up slain invisible ninjas... Take care, all; wishing you a happy week!
