Why is it that one job leads to another? I started off my morning raking leaves from the oak tree near my house and thought okay this is all I am going to do today. But that led to washing off my front porch from all the pollen we have, it is thick and green on every surface around. Which led to scrubbing my front walkway where mold was beginning to grow. Which led to pulling weeds all around my front walkway and front of the house. Which led to giving my boys a bath. I know that was a big jump but it really did happen. Which led to pulling weeds out behind my pool area. Which led to washing up, vacuuming and washing the floors while the boys were outside drying. That first job was all I was going to do and I made it in the house and finished four hours later.
Why is it that just after I got rid of all toxic cleaners in my house I found out my refrigerator was leaking and I was getting some black mold and had to use bleach to clear it up. I got an infestation of flies in my master bathroom which I think are drain flies and had to use a toxic drain cleaner to get rid of them. We are not in the clear yet but the fly death rate at my house is slowing down. And of course there is that mold outside on the sidewalk, heavy duty cleaner needed there also. I am trying to be toxic free but the Universe seems to be having a laugh at my expense. Ha, you want to detox your home, we will see about that!
Why is it that this wild turkey was walking down the middle of the road on Friday afternoon? Seriously this is behind my house and I pulled up behind her and she just kept walking right down those yellow lines. As cars approached I flashed my lights at them and they did slow down but really just kept moving along. She wasn't even fazed. I pulled up next to her and she ruffled her feathers a bit. I honked at her and she just looked irritated. I tried to get behind her and pull up slowly to move her towards the woods and let me just say she was having none of it. She just kept walking, I just kept following until she finally walked to the side of the road. I'd say we were together about 6 minutes, her walking and me following. She is a beauty isn't she?
Why is it that the month of March finds me consumed with paperwork? There are six progress notes or re-evaluations due this month for work and I am finding it hard to get them done. I am working all day on Friday's while Little B is at school to get ahead of all the work. So far I have two complete, two more almost done with two to go. I am the kind of person who can't be late handing things in. It all has to get done on time!
Why is it that this little boy took two whole years to be brave enough to get in his jeep and drive it? He got this two years ago for Christmas and on his second ride it went a little fast for him and he has not gotten in it again. Just as I was thinking it was time to give it away he wanted to ride it. Well my friends that battery in the jeep was dead, dead, dead so I ordered another one and what do you know? This guy is riding around like a race car driver. He loves it! He is a brave boy and finding his way in his own time. I am pretty proud of him.
Why is it that Hank is so much more beautiful in person than he is in pictures? I can't understand it. His eyes are a beautiful caramel color that doesn't get picked up in a photo. They are almost the exact color of his beautiful nose. He looks happy here, which he usually is. but boy when my phone comes out to take his picture he usually gets all serious.
Why is it that Bear can't stay clean even before he is sufficiently dry after his bath? If you look closely you can see he was eating dirt out of one of my plants, it is all over his mouth. These boys!
Why is it I can't stop making Elise Shawls? This one is for another dear friend. It will be a surprise. I think I am still in love with the pattern all these years later and the yarn I am using is so lovely. It is a win-win. It is a project that does not take too much thinking, and it makes a beautiful shawl.
Why is it my son's seem to be having so much more fun than me? Last weekend Mr 26 was in Jamaica. It was a well deserved weekend, and he needed the time away, but still it was Jamaica! And this week Mr 22 and his girlfriend are going on a cruise. She got a great deal on this trip thorough her work so they jumped at the chance to go. That means we have Luna, the granddog for the week. She is so excited to be with the boys, she could care less about her grandmother. Still she brought me a dried up dead lizard today so there is that! I sent Mr 22 and his girlfriend with lots of essential oils to combat bacteria and viruses. Hopefully they will use them. Am I nervous with all the news about the Coronavirus? Not really to be honest, they are smart kids and they will keep washing their hands and taking precautions as much as they can. We all have to continue to live our lives the best we can and not get hysterical. Be smart, stay in if you are sick, wash your hands, stay away from those people who are ill if you can, eat right and sleep well so you have the best immune system possible. That is all we can do, oh and don't hoard toilet paper or hand sanitizer, that stuff is really horrible for you anyway.
Why is it weekends go by sooooooooooooo fast? I feel like I really never get a chance to relax before I have to prepare for the week ahead. Speaking of work, I better get ready for Monday. Have a good week my friends.
