LET THE YARD WORK BEGIN
I didn't post yesterday because I was busy fooling around with some old journals I had saved as word documents back as far as 2005. I was trying to copy and past them into this format. I will try to post them sometime soon. Plus I have a hand written journal that I would like to post here also. Today was a beautiful day. Sunny with a light breeze and in the upper 50's. We went out early this morning and first thing grabbed a latte from Starbuck's then we went to the appliance store to grab a stacking kit for the washer and dryer. When it gets set up in the mud/laundry room it will be stacked behind a bi fold door at the end of the room. We stopped at Lowe's to get new brackets for a fence in the backyard. It is just a decorate fence that sits between my neighbor's yard and mine with two pine trees flanking it. Over the winter I think her son plowed too much snow into it and it broke away from the brackets on the posts. I also got four new patio chairs for the little patio area in the back yard. I also want to get a fire pit like this one. I did a little raking around the area where the fence is and it is beginning to look nicer out back. I was just telling my husband the other day that I would love to stop by a garden shop that has greenhouses and ask them if I could just go and walk around in the green house and smell the fresh damp soil and the green leafy plants. I know their greenhouses are starting to get stocked. Today as I was raking I got the aroma I was looking for last week. Moist, wet soil with a little bit of green mixed in. I yelled to my husband, "Husband, I smell soil."
I actually wore sandals today and wasn't even cold. My daughter came by to pick up her summer tires and and rims. She came with the boyfriend and his truck. She then went directly to the tire place and had them put on. He is a sweetheart, he has taken over for my husband when it comes to doing things like that for the daughter.
