One windy day...


'Dorothy I do not think we are in Kansas anymore'.. Wow, what wind gusts we had this morning... I have many large limbs down in the backyard...I will have to take pictures before cleanup... I need a chain saw or lumber jack...ha.. I worked in my yard yesterday and planted a couple mums and was getting ready for a large amount of rain but I did not receive much rain but plenty wind. Not sure what time the wind started but was during the night, and it must have been fairly bad because I was dreaming of a tornado... or else that was what I went to bed thinkng about...:)

I bought the mums on Sprigg street.. they always have the nicest mums.. I bought mums their the first year that I moved to Cape.. 1999.. I found the place by accident and had to stop and buy 5.. I do love fall time.. and used to love to decorate, but that was when the kids were smaller...
I remember Brian helping me make a stuffed halloween 'monster' that was part of the decorations and then he was to afraid to go into the living room by himself...LOL.. I asked him yesterday if he wanted a mum for his yard.. and he said 'no, I already have a mom'...:) He was 22 this past Wednesday... I was 22 when I had him....doesn't seem like it should be that many years ago...LOL... must be the old age think again...
I've spent the day inside working on remodeling projects that I have had started for quite awhile... I bought the wall tile for the bathroom yesterday... I have started painted the portion that I am not going to place tile on.. Then of course I decided to paint the vanity first before I buy a new one... Thought I would try and recycle the old one... Am trying to crackle paint it... It does not look real good yet...If you know of any good sights that show renovation ideas, let me know...
Time to get back to painting, and what ever else I start but not finish today... It is back to work tomorrow... Weekends are way to short....
