FATHERS DAY 2006

We had a good weekend! Laura, Bryan and April called and talked to dad to wish him a Happy Fathers Day & Lily and Daisy sent papa some of their LOVELY artwork. I got some lovely artwork too!

I didn't expect Don to do anything extra - but I got busy and rented a rototiller(I originally reserved a backhoe - but Don said "NO"). I've been wanting to do some serious land moving.(LOL) Anyway - I rented the rototiller instead for a couple of hours and got a workout! We went to the nursery and got some more plants & trees for the yard and we went and got a 1/2 yard of topsoil that I shoveled out of the truck. I get a vision (plan) in my head and get busy and work hard achieving it. I try not to burden Don with the work involved in my visions. (Don was involved in the bridge over the dry river bed - he likes, and does a nice job when working with wood. Don was busy with his usual work around the yard that he loves to do and planting the new plants/trees and mowing the grass. We did get a new hedgetrimmer for Don for Fathers Day and he went golfing with his brothers. We packed our weekend pretty full with work and play and now it is Monday. We are scheduling to get 4 of our fir trees cut down in the front yard (the clean up will keep us busy).

Life is good and we thank the Lord for our healthy kind of strong, older bodies that we can get so much done without a lot of aches and pains.

Now to get thru the rest of the week - Get up - Go to work- Come home - Work out in the yard (I picked our first batch of raspberries today yummmmm!) - Eat dinner - Chill out for a bit - Go to bed - and start all over again the next day. This weekend - I am shoveling out the upstairs, again. Getting ready for a yard sale soon.
