Peaceful Saturday

I did some grocery shopping after hitting the yard sales.  Thomas had to work until 1 today, and then the four of us got outside and did yard work after he got home.  He is still out there with the weed eater.  This is the first real mowing and weeding that has been done this year, and boy, did the lawn need it.

I skipped out on them, though, to come in to do a little laundry and start dinner, and to visit j-land!  I can get away with that! 

We've had a beautiful day with warm temps and sunny skies.  I thought about an hour ago that we were going to get some showers because it clouded up for a while and the wind picked up; but the sun came back out, and no rain so far.  Thomas tightened up the lines on my clothes line, and I'm making good use of it and the sun and the wind this afternoon.

We had to put the dogs in their kennels to get the yard work done, because they like to help; they aren't happy, but I think Eler Beth and B will get them out and play with them later this evening.

Last night was the Great Balloon Glow, which we did not go to; and this morning was the Great Balloon Race, but I forgot about it.  I don't know who won; guess I'll turn on the local news soon.

Several journalers have been journaling about why they like to journal, and I plan to do something similar when I have a few minutes to compose my thoughts.  So expect to hear from me again today!
