Well, the snow got me motivated yesterday and I finished the apron. I made a serious mistake on the 2nd pocket so that's why there is only one. Oh well, I'll do better next time!
LOL! You caught my kitchen on a good day. I will definitely check out the blog. I've been following your girl's home plans with interest. I probably won't get to this weekend because I have to scoot in about two minutes and tomorrow will be crazy. However, I will definitely take a look.
On Thursday afternoon, just as Dan and I were getting ready to leave for a meeting, we received a phone call from our son. He was sitting on the side of the road with a blown engine in his car. The problem is he lives 3 1/2 hours away. After back and forth phone calls he called a tow truck and got it towed to a garage. He ended up renting a car and headed here for the holiday. We've been working with him to figure out his next steps because he still owes thousands of dollars on the car which will also take a significant amount to replace the engine. His rent is going up in the new year. His seasonal job ended and he is trying to find something else, but needs a car for that to happen. His car still has not been looked at by the mechanic. It is all more than a little overwhelming. Long story short, we extended an invitation for him to live here temporarily so he can get out from under all of this. It would save him money on expensive rent and utilities. The timing was right since h...
Good morning! It's been almost a year since I've done a blog give away so I thought that today would be a good day to go ahead and offer that. I love writing and blogging and I so appreciate my blog readers. I've gotten to know many of you throughout the years and I want to show my appreciation by giving you the chance to win!

I cannot believe it's mid-September already. We are entering into the time of the year that is my favorite. I love all the colors and it's been beautiful. We are in a bit of drought, but the weather has been gorgeous. This weekend was probably one of the most relaxing that I've had in a long time. I wasn't canning or processing anything. I didn't have an agenda. I just relaxed. That's a good thing because I have major things going on for the next 5 weekends in a row. The geese are starting to fly. The squirrels and chipmunks are busy collecting nuts. The bees are still busy collecting pollen. I've been getting out and walking as much as possible each day. I've also been a lot of my work out on the back patio. It's peaceful as long as my neighbors aren't out there mowing or blowing leaves. I have to laugh because almost every single time I sit out there someone decides that is the moment to do yard work. It's pumpkin and squash season and ou...
