Bluet, it's so good to "see" you! A garage sale--yuck! I like the idea of a garage sale, but the reality always bites, in my limited experience. Sorry you have to have a redo garage sale, but hope the second one turns out better.
Bonnie2, glad you had fun with Jenna. Is she walking and talking? Bet she is--makes it fun, but tiring, I'll bet. I'm sorry to hear about your step-FIL. That must be so hard on your MIL.
Charlotte, glad your weather was better than Bluet's and that your festival was a success. Five bluegrass bands--what fun! Did the station raise a lot of money? Hope so. Those past experiences sure color our current experiences, don't they? Although I love dogs, I still have a "thing" about German Shepherds and Dobermans because I saw a pack of them (probably only two, but to a young kid it seemed like a pack!) run into the neighbor's yard and kill the goats that were tied there. It was horrible. Have you ever gotten up on a horse since that buggy ride?
Diane, glad your grandson did so well at the pig show. Was it all pigs or farm animals in general? Is Daisy a 4-H project? Hhmm, now that I think about it, 4-H projects usually end up in places I don't want to think about (although I enjoy hamburger, bacon and sausage as much as the next person) so hopefully Daisy is a pet pig. I have a friend who runs a pig sanctuary. Lots of people would get those pot belly pigs and then dump them when they got too big. Hope the rest of your weekend was good.
SunnyD, your new jammies sound so cute and comfy, and the new outfit sounds beautiful. So what did you end up doing the rest of the weekend? Did you get your plants, and did you plant them? Hope the weather held for you.
We went to look an old house in the country that's going to be restored. May is historic preservation month so there are a lot of things to do. Tonight is a walk around an older area of town that I might go to if DH wants to go. The old house we looked at had no indoor plumbing, although it was used as somebody's house well into the '70s. Somebody had tiled the kitchen counter, though. Strange priorities. . .
My Dad called yesterday to ask if we had a room we could rent him for $2500 a month. Fat chance! I did remind him, however, that we'd looked at an assisted living facility for him when he was in the hospital. So we'll see what happens. I hadn't mentioned it until then because I wanted him to make up his mind without any influence. He's mad at the place he's in--said they stole a crystal vase he had (it was huge!) and keep mixing up his medication. I think he's probably mixing up his own medication, but who knows? We'll see what happens.
So who won on Survivor? Was it the guy? I don't really watch it, but flipped through a bit last night. I couldn't sleep from about 2-3 am and watched my first (and hopefully last) episode of Baywatch. What an, um, interesting show.
Hope everyone is having a great Monday!
