Happy Monday! I tried to do individuals last night..first my computer froze up and then Firefox crashed. I have never had that happen before. I just gave up. This morning I deleted lots of garbage and cookies...don't know if anything was my fault or just the server, but it seemed a good time to clean house.
I hope your week has started off well. Mine is about 50/50.. LOL.. Weigh in found me down 1 1/2 pounds, but still not down to my usual 170. Ugh..like Cristina I am kicking myself for gaining this weight back again and again. I would be positively skinny if I had kept off all the weight I have lost and gained.
I planted 50..yes 50 bulbs this morning. I will be surprised if my legs are not stiff and sore from all the bending. I am sure the squirrels will get some of the bulbs, but I figure if even 20 come up I will have a nice selection. (lillies) Last night I planted a flat of annuals around the fountain.
The cheese logs/trays and veggie tray were time consuming, but not hard. Everything went over well. The party at the lake was nice and relaxing. The first time DH's siblings had all been together in awhile. His sis was celebrating 50 years married. Yesterday DGD's graduation open house was really nice. Lots of family, friends and oh my, all her friends. Oh yes, the new baby was there so I got to sit and hold him for awhile. Haven't talked to my DD today, but I imagine she is just pooped out from all her preparations. Right in the middle of everything they showed their house..so that was more stress.
Anyway...with visiting with the in-laws Sat. and my daughter/family Sun. I realized just how blessed I am to have so many lovely and loving people in my life. I hope you all are as blessed.
Cristina- Yay for the scales going down...you are doing great once again with the exercise. I am trying... Have fun this evening with the games and running.
Mindee- Hope you find lots of fireworks to take the kiddos to. I imagine you are able to keep the family busy for the summer. Will you have both boys in school next year? Did I read that somewhere?
Sassy- I am sure you will have a good time at the cookout. I figure if someone doesn't come it is their loss. I am having a bunch of peeps here the 20th and am looking forward to it. Just have to plan a menu.
Francie- I got a kick out of reading about your "underwear adventures." Hey, that would make a good novel. LOL.. I would like to hear more about the Coast Guard idea. I would like my grandson to join. There is a base near his mom's home in northern CA.
Jules- Hope things are good at your place. Have you ever planted Walker's Low Catmint? I saw it planted in front of a store last year and asked what it was..bought some and it didn't do much. This year it is beautiful and good size. I have 3 bushes. It is growing in an area that gets little filtered sunlight.
Susan- Glad you got moved and hope it doesn't take too long to feel like home. I don't have Myspace anymore so didn't see your pics.
Katy- Do you have lots of plans for the summer? The parade sounded nice.
Kathy- Hi, is your kiddo home for the summer now?
I am sorry..grabbing at straws here since I am too lazy to go back and read the last thread again.
My legs ARE starting to hurt up the back from that bending. Thanks goodness I had a bulb planter or I would still be out there digging holes.
Have a pot of green beans cooking and will toss in some red potatoes. DH is grilling chicken breasts. Yum!
