Friday Ramblings
April 17th, 2009 by admin
It’s a lovely day today. Tomorrow should be even nicer =) Time to get out in the flower beds, finally, and clean up the mess I left last fall. What I wouldn’t give to have a nice load of mulch dropped in my driveway. To be able to mulch deep and thick. Ahhh, the dreams. My groundcovers are starting to take hold in a few places, so that will help keep weeds down some but mulch would go so far towards holding in moisture this summer. Mulch and a few soaker hoses of course 
The things I’ve planted the past springs have really started taking off. I promise pictures as I get things prettied up out there!
The boy has been home for Spring Break this week, so I have spent most of that time running him from friend to friend to friend and back again lol. But he’s enjoying himself and I like to see that =)
I’ve also spent the past week talking with my oldest boy =) Things are going well there, I couldn’t be happier. Well, unless he comes out here to visit or we go out there to see him Which we are hopeful for in the near-ish future. I’m so hopeful that I went on the local Craig’s List and asked if anyone who had a futon for sale would be willing to deliver for me. Within three hours I had a futon sitting in my garage =) Talk about things working out well. I’ve also started watching for cheap flights and rearranging things so that if things work out, I can afford to make it happen. I don’t even know if it will happen soon, but at the very least I’ve gotten us a spare bed. It was something we’d discussed needing anyway, so it’ll go into the office and be available when the boy has sleepovers (at least this next year while hubby’s still gone) and for those rare times when we have other overnight guests. We didn’t buy living room furniture that would serve as sleeping space when we replaced my old beloved couch and it was a slight issue when the inlaws were here last. Fortunately, the boy is young and recovered well from his night spent in the recliner So, if nothing else I’ve solved a problem.
Uh-oh, Mom’s Taxi service just went back on duty. Time to run the boy out to his friend’s house lol. Have a wonderful weekend y’all! I hope you have gorgeous weather and get to enjoy it!
