Good Morning and Welcome to Sunday the 20th day of September, 2015.
Three more days until it is officially fall, September 23rd.
There was no rain when Alvin and I were first up at 4:30 a.m. ….. I have an early bird for a household companion.
Woe is me …… well actually not, because he does lay down after he goes outside and eats breakfast.
Now it has been raining for a few hours not exactly sure how many.
I am so grateful that I spent the time outside yesterday doing yard work.
Mowed the front including my neighbours and the back.
Raked it all including some leaves that have turned and fallen.
Pulled flowers and cleaned out some of the “13” flower pots that I planted.
The impatiens out in the front flower bed are doing well thus far so I left them.
Also left some of the pots out back as they were doing well.
Rearranged and tidied up the garage.
Pulled some weeds between our garages and our houses.
Watered the remaining flowers …..
Even enjoyed a snack and coffee on the deck in the sunshine.
It was fabulous. So nice.
Back inside: I finally rearranged the basement (after the dry wall now complete); did six loads of laundry, vacuumed and dusted and bathroom…… whew.
Closet in the office will have to wait for another day……
Alvin was outside this morning and he was looking up and barking.
He barked for a few minutes before I figured out what he was barking about ….. it was the lily pad ornament and piece of rock that I had set up on the railing by the garage but had forgot to put away inside.
Mr. Alvin reminded me to put it away …… a bit late but better late than never, right.
What a guy.
I am going to whip up a batch of pancakes.
My daughter is coming for a visit this afternoon and we will have pancakes for a snack/late lunch.
Alvin gets another haircut and bath.
Seems like I just cut his hair …. yes, only a few weeks ago.
Later when my friend finishes her Steeped Party sales I will enter them and submit the party.
I also have to run out for a couple of errands at the store / drugstore.
Then after supper I am going to simply relax and watch some of the new fall line-up.
I hope that you are having a great Sunday and make sure that you take the time to relax.
So important to your well being.
I know sometimes if you are the only one that does the house work, outdoor stuff, you work, children and or pets, part-time job, and whatever else you may have on your plate or all of the above…… taking the time to RELAX does not feel like an option but you must. If you are not well then none of those things will get done.
Well it is time for this gal to get the show on the road ….. whip up the pancakes and make them so just have to warm them up….. so easy peasy.
Then cutting Mr. Alvin’s hair well that is not exactly the easiest most especially his paws.
But I will do my best as always.
Happy Sunday.
Special Hello to: all the inhabitants on the this planet whether two or four-legged, fish or fowl … Hello.
Not to forget the Ants, LadyBugs, Dragonflies and such.
Always, Carol and Alvin
