Remember when.... your Mother told you...the older you get, the faster time passes by...and now you know how right she really was?? So..it all boils down to the fact...that I'm dashing through my life...with so much yarn yet to use and unfinshed projects. It's time to enjoy the finer things in life...my hubby, cats and dog...a phone call from my kids, a good cup of "joe" and my hooks and needles.
Let Me Know You Were here!! :)

The Harvest
Rule #1--don't laugh. This is MY first REAL harvest of cherry tomatoes...and I have "tomatoes from hell"!!! I decided, with the advice from my neighbor, to put 2 plants in each hole I prepared...and guess what?? You guessed right...But aren't they beautiful??? My "big boys" are just starting to turn red....my red and yellow peppers are still green...and most of my "buds" were destroyed with my chipmunk spray....so we'll see what happens there. :( And my zucchini has a ton of buds...but nothing yet. I don't think they're getting as much sun as they need, plus I put them in tomato cages to grow "up" instead of "out". The chipmunks didn't help, either!! It's definitely a learning experience.
Worked this morning and talked the "boss" into closing the restaurant down after the brunch. Needless to say, we weren't busy this morning and I'm sure this evening's shift wouldn't have been much better. He's "cut back" so much that it's not only affecting my customers, but my MOOD as well, It's just nothn' like it used to be. People are NOT happy!!! Oh well, I guess anything I walk out of there with is more than I walked in with, right?? Enough said!!
Cold front moving through...it is now 63 degrees F. out there. Sweater weather!! Feast or famine. More rain to move through this evening. It was extremely hot and humid yesterday and last night I actually took some much needed "time out" and sat in one of our "curb find" Adirondack Chairs. It was absolutely gorgeous listening to the crickets, watching the birdies head home and the chipmunks running off to their dens. I was extremely content.
So with that thought in mind...PEACE be with you and yours.....until next time....
Come and join me for some idol "chit chat"...I'm a crafter...with far too many interests. I'm a pet lover...a gardener...and occassional try my hand at photography. Come share my daily adventures and my love for crafts.. while I run through life with hooks and needles---and way too much yarn!!
