Thursdays are usually pretty rough for me but today was a full, productive day.
- The plumber came and put in my new kitchen faucet from Day 56 and fixed our leaky toilets and showers. Now maybe our water bill will go back down.
- We had a high school kid come and do some yard work for us this afternoon. He's a keeper so we'll have him back again and again.
- My daughter got our new climbing roses from Day 62 planted. Red roses on a white arbor for the entrance to our rose garden.
- I finally (yes, finally) started on the quilt that I fought putting in the frame way back on Day 38. Better late than never.
- I rode the exercise bike for the 18th straight day. Yay!
- We celebrated Mother's Day today. My daughter heads home tomorrow and works through the weekend so we had a Mother's Day dinner tonight. We had barbecued steak, corn on the cob, baked potatoes, and grilled garlic bread. Yum!
- My daughter helped me (or I should say I helped her) finish up planting our garden. Corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, broccoli, cabbage, bell peppers, hot peppers, red potatoes, russet potatoes, kohlrabi, carrots, spinach, arugula, zucchini, cantaloupe, watermelon, kale, rosemary, basil, Italian parsley, and pumpkins. It's not pretty right now, but it will be soon.
glad this was a better thursday for you. good job on the garden. Mom
ReplyDeleteHappy early Mother's Day! Your BBQ sounds scrumptious.
ReplyDeleteI envy your veggie garden - too many deer in our yard to attempt one here.
Looks like that teenager will come in handy as the weeds start growing. lol
wow - that's a lot of stuff planted in the garden! Sounds like you had a great day and got many things done, plus exercised and a great dinner! Good for you.~Lisa
