Had a glorious weekend, the weather was perfect so hubby and I worked out in the yard and gardens....digging in the dirt with your best friend, it doesn't get any better than that! The weekend ended with a heavy downpour with much needed rain and cooler temps today. I watched the Bachelorette last night...did anyone else? If so what did you think....there are a couple of guys that I think Jillian should send packing, especially the redneck who wants to beat up the other guys, what a creep. It will be interesting to see who she ends up with.

We are so proud of you!

Had a beautiful Mother's Day weekend, oldest daughter came and cooked a wonderful grilled rib-eye steak dinner, got these flowers from my daughter and son-in-law.
They smell so great, fill the house with marvelous smell of flowers and got a heartwarming letter written by my youngest daughter, which made me cry. I felt so loved, I have the greatest kids in the world.

Longing....

We have had two more rounds of winter with storms producing 10+ inches of snow, icy streets and sidewalks and cold again....yuck. I am so ready for spring to get here and stay warm. Longing for the green grass and warm sunshine and for the bushes and trees to bud.




Then perhaps I will get over this cold too and be able to air out the house.

Go Bulldogs!

Our high school boys basketball team has made it to the state tournament and just won their first game...yay Bulldogs!

You know spring is coming when....

While we still have a lot of this....


we know when the migration begins spring is soon to follow.

It was a busy weekend and I am exhausted today....moved daughter #2 and her husband to Omaha over the weekend....physically and emotionally draining. The first time she has been away from home so to speak, at this distance. They have a lovely home with a large fenced in back yard for the granddogs so that is good! Had planned to come home on Sunday afternoon but #1 son who also helped, actually the whole family helped, my kids love each other! Anyway I digress....#1 son drove the moving truck to the return site, locked it and dropped the keys in the drop box. Moments later discovers that he locked his phone in the truck so we had to wait until 7 a.m. on Monday to retrieve his phone before returning home. My baby, daughter #3 was anxious to shop for her prom dress and of course HAD to do it yesterday....upon arriving in the big city around noon, after 2.5 hours on the road, I drove to the Cancer Institute where I met my hubby and mother-in-law for a consult on further treatment for her head and neck cancer...have mixed feelings about her doing daily radiation treatments for the next five weeks at age 83 and her third bout with cancer. Means I will be driving her 50 miles one way to treatments every day. After we were done there three hours later hubby dropped me off to meet daughter #3 to shop for her prom dress. That lasted until 8 p.m. We did find the dress, expensive but she looks life a Grecian Goddess!

So today I have been worthless and watched the ending episode of The Bachelor on the internet...I am so disappointed in Jason who has turned out to be a schmuck. Don't I lead an exciting life.
