little people

so these are the kids i spend my days with. they are

sweet and terrible

cute and horrendous

funny and maddening

lovable and WAHHHHHHH!

making my days

filled with good and bad

i've been dying to knit.....

so i headed down to hobby lobby with my sister.

i knew i wanted to make these

yoga socks

cause i love socks with no toes

and gloves with no

fingers.

i picked out my yarn and it was all pretty and soft, and

went home to watch youtube videos for a

refresher course in knitting.

after watching i thought to myself " i can do this"

and i looked around and said "where's my yarn?"

i looked all around and started thinking i was crazy....

and then i saw HIM!

MR. DARCY !!!!!!
and i went in my bedroom to his favorite spot
to take things he shouldn't have.
there it was all over the floor by my bed.
i picked it up and couldn't even find
an end to begin on.

so now instead of beginning my socks i get to spend my time

rolling up my yarn into balls.

i'm not happy.

and he's not sorry.

the state fair

Corey went to the fair tonight. Which makes me

want some taffy.

I also miss the smells, the food, the animals, the hay.....

I just wish

they still had the cranes

that i used to spend all my money on,

winning small worthless goodies.

before & after

poor mr. darcy. i let his hair get out of control this time.

i can't believe it's the same dog.

i bet the groomer

thinks

i'm terrible.

and life goes on

Corey finally got out of the hospital. after almost 6 weeks. He was home for a

few weeks getting

iv antibiotics, but everything got back to normal soon. I went back to work then

he went back to

school.

And life goes on here with all its

busyness.....

flowers around the hospital

Yes my son is still in the hospital. this will be week 3.

he ended up having to have surgery

and is recovering well.

the hospital is beautiful, flowers everywhere so i had to take some

pictures.

recycled fountain

I saw an article in Family Fun magazine that showed

how to make a hand washing

station at your

campsite.
So i used it to make a fountain

for my bird bath.

And it works.

So it's just an empty milk jug hung on a tree

with a nail hole in the front.

Fill it with water and it falls perfectly in the birdbath

making a nice little sound

inviting all the birds to cool off.
