It's all in a day's work!

All of you probably have wondered what has happened to me since I haven't blogged for a week.

Let me share with you what I have been doing. We got home early evening on Saturday from doing our garage sale and we were so beat that we didn't even unload the truck.

Sunday after church when we got home at around 2 PM, we changed our clothes and unloaded all the stuff off of the truck into our garage for me to resort and pack up for the next garage sale which we will have later in the summer. Curt is planning on working at the church this week doing some maintenance work and to prep for a guy who will be doing some painting to refresh our elementary school for a open house that we will be having at our school the week after next. He needed to load the truck with the tools that he would have to take to do the work he's planning.

Monday, I made three loaves of bread and did four loads of wash plus planted a few flowers and treated a few of our evergreens with a dose of Miracle Gro. I also did the flowers that I planted two weeks ago. I trimmed the new shoots that were growing at the base of our Crepe Myrtle also so that they would steal the nourishment from the new growth that I wanted to grow on them.

Tuesday, I had an Appointment at 10 AM and then went shopping for any bargains that I could find and ended up grocery shopping and didn't get home until around 4 PM.

Wednesday, I took all the winter clothes out of our closets and transferred them to the closet in our spare bedroom and out into the storage closets that I have in the garage and brought in all our summer clothes. I don't have much closet space so I have to do this twice a year, trading out summer for winter and winter for summer. It is a big job and took all day.

Thursday is the day that I spend at the church and school for prayer meeting and working at the school lunches and when I got home in the afternoon, I ironed.

Now you know why I haven't been on my blog all week but I'm back and you all should be hearing some things from me now.
