A long nap ...

I just woke up from a 2 or 3 hour nap! I don't take naps often, but when I do, they are long and I really need them. I could have slept more, but my little bedroom started getting too warm as the sun was hitting that side of the house. We finished work early (before noon) and came home after that. My husband grilled meat and tortillas. I then played scrabble with son # 4. He was getting all the vowels and I was getting all the consonants. Eventually I got a few vowels and he, consonants so we... Sign in to see full entry.

Trivia of the day?

My day off. Not exactly, but I have until 12:30 off. I went for a walk with older son and daughter, then we went to a coffee shop. I don't care for the coffee there, so I got tea:) On the bulletin board was a notice about a farmers' market in the little town I clean once a week. Since I will be house sitting nearby then, I think I will try to get a table. At this one there's no fee, so it's a no lose situation. The farmers' market in our town charges $12 a table, plus the $25 to join their... Sign in to see full entry.

Owning a horse...still in my dreams...

Just got back from cleaning a house. This is the house, in the next town, where I usually have coffee with the lady and visit a bit. Today she asked me if I was still interested in getting a horse. She has a good friend who has a well broke mare, 10 years old. I am interested. I realize I have no time to ride, but maybe it would be a good thing to make time as it's something I enjoy a lot. So, now I will have to convince my husband about it.:) I have given it into God's hands, so I am going to... Sign in to see full entry.

Organizing and categorizing...

Today is the day I am cleaning my room. Actually, I am organizing the top of the closet where I have boxes of miscellaneous stuff, such as: Art supplies, paper for bookmaking, crochet and knitting needles and papers I need to sort. So now my bed is piled high with sorted boxes and I am getting tired of doing this! Usually around this time I will quit and throw everything back and have accomplished very little. The good part is that this time I used that really cool blue painters tape and wrote... Sign in to see full entry.

It's pop can day...

I slept in and was so sleepy I felt like I was waking out of a coma. That's how I feel if I sleep too long. The boy who collects cans came by. He asked if I could give him a ride to the store so he could cash in. Usually we have 2 vehicles, but both were gone. He waited till Greg came home for a break. In the meanwhile I made him some hot chocolate and I sat outside with him writing notes, since he cannot hear or talk. Basically I found out how many pets he had and he asked when I could come...
