This one is Snow's fault!

While reading Snow's blog I realized it has been quite some time since I did one of my own. (Told you in the beginning I was no good at this). Soooooo......... it's been about 6 months. During that time we sold the big old falling apart 3-story Victorian and moved into a 3 bedroom mobile home. Talk about down-sizing! We still have boxes and stuff tucked all over the livingroom and in the hallway, to be sorted through and either find a spot for it or find a new home for it. There are also 2 storage units we're slowly weeding out.... will soon be able to condense into one unit. Slow progress there as the youngest son has been taking up a bit of time for the last month. We stopped in the end of March and found him stuck in bed. After 10 hours in the ER.... bulging disc. And nobody will see him without cash up front. We don't have the extra..... he can't work, has no insurance. So every few days he calls, can we come get him and he comes up here for a day or two. Just took him home tonight (picked him up yesterday). Was hoping to keep him a couple more days because our chiropractor said to bring him in and he'd see what he can do for him. Oh well, maybe in a day or two he'll be back.

On the home front.... I found "rumble buttons" !!!!!! Son and friend got up on the roof and put them in. Blow wind blow!!!!!!!!! Roof is oh so much quieter! In the next week or two the re-sealing of the roof begins. I was very happy to find lots of flowers in the flower bed. It's been fun watching to see what comes up. There are a couple bunches of bleeding hearts, lots of hostas and daffodils, a rose bush and either lots of irises or glads...... not sure which yet. Oh, and there's bunches of ornamental grass.... haven't looked it up to see what it is yet though. I've started (kinda sorta) digging the hole for my pond. After a couple shovels of dirt it's time to go sit and breath... Chantix next month! All in all, it's coming along well, if a bit slow.
