No post for weeks! And I have so much to say…and no time to get it in print. I home-school and things are winding down, trying to get finished up on all our subjects. We will be doing a few things like math facts, journals and read books through the summer, so I’ve been getting that in place.
My husband and I just finished up planting the garden so I need to get grass clippings around all my plants to help keep the moisture in and the weeds out! And, my brother dropped off four loads of rocks for finishing up the rock wall on the lower lawn and making a new one around our “someday barn area”.
Ah the barn… will it ever get started? We keep changing our minds on design and if we should do it ourselves as opposed to having it done. Oh, and the colors, now that has given me nightmares. I don’t want it to stand out but blend in with the landscape. I look at it out my kitchen window so it can’t be yellow. There are only a few shades of yellow I like.
Picky? Um… yes. It will be there forever. Should we even be doing this? What if my husband loses his job, which they keep saying could happen because of downsizing. However, we are starting a business and the barn is very important. We decided to keep on going. The barn is in year one of our five year plan.
We believe this is the path that was set before us and we will press on. I think Winding Up is about to happen. Oh… did I mention the bricks I have to put under the pergola, bark for flowerbeds, more furniture and order and hang mirrors for the bridal room of our wedding facility, work on my new website, you get the idea.
Writing will be hit and miss for the summer as I am working on all my projects. I am taking before and after pictures to share along the way. What does your summer plans look like?
Winding Up,
Teri :~)
