OK. Let me start by saying that my husband, who occasionally reads this blog, is a super duper guy and a WONDERFUL father. He has the girls curled up with him in the easy chair watching ELMO riding a tricycle just right now. He changes diapers, he washes dishes, he vacuums, he [...]

Bee gone
Posted in Garden, tagged bees, missing bees on May 31, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I’m a little worried. I haven’t seen a single honey bee in my garden. There are wood bees, and many other flying insects (which seem super happy to visit my plants, just to fill the leaves with holes), but no bees. The one green pepper I ate had ZERO seeds in side.
Will I get any [...]

I got a free oil change from my dealership today. They called and said they missed me and hadn’t seen me for a while. Come by and let’s oil change, my treat.
I fell for it. I went. Then I had to put out (200 bucks for two new tires!)
I feel used. I bet they won’t [...]

I’ve been off my blog game for a little while, cause there’s just been too much going on to blog about.
Then I started feeling behind.
So, rather than catching up, I am just going to lump it. Sorry. I have nothing to say about my Memorial Day weekend. I LOVED visiting with my [...]
Poison Ivy – I haz it.

I didn’t think I got reactions from poison ivy. Now I know, I do.
On Friday, I went out into our newly fenced yard and started pulling up the poison ivy from our yard, as Eleanor is soon to be turned loose in the natural habitat. I don’t want her coming in to the [...]

Eleanor got a tea set from Auntie Sam yesterday. That was just 22 hours ago. We’ve been playing tea party for about 6 of those last 22 hours. Really.
She tea partied with Sam at the church. She popped up from her nap and tea partied with Granny and Gramby. (Evidently [...]
If eTrish Won’t go to the Blog, Blogservations has to go to the Farm
Posted in Uncategorized on May 18, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Trish and I went on a little trip yesterday. We have been planning this for months. We went to the DAR Luncheon meeting at Dunaway Gardens near Newnan, GA. The DAR was, well, what I expected, and the luncheon was fine and eatable, but the GARDENS – Oh HOLY WONDERLAND OF ROCK AND WATER!!! I [...]
My chat with eTrish today regarding my Stimulus Payment
Posted in Eleanor, Saralyn, tagged Economic Stimulus Payment, IRS on May 12, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Our Economic Stimulus Payment was direct deposited last week. However there was about $300.00 missing from it. You know, the amount of one child. Today, the postman delivered a letter from the IRS which explained the payment. It confirmed that we have only one child. While I was on hold, I [...]
When do you open your birthday presents?
Posted in Uncategorized on May 10, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Yesterday, Eleanor went to her first birthday party. Her playgroup friend Eve turned three. It was a great time. Elly knew everyone at the party, as all the kids had, at one point or another, been in the play group. There was cake and ice cream, bubbles, music and dancing. But Eve didn’t open her [...]
