Happy early Mother's Day to everyone. Unfortunately, my dear sweet Mother passed about seven years ago so . . .
Have fun, czech!!!
It has been raining here since about 10:30 last night. It only stops for about five minutes and then continues to rain heavy for what seems like hours. I want it to stop. It's been a rainy Spring.
Not much going on for me today with all this rain. It kinda puts the screws to my outdoor plans of errand running and hanging laundry out.
I've got some errands to do and then we are working outside. My parents hired a couple HS boys to work for the summer. Maybe, just maybe, opening the pool won't turn into a shouting match between my dad and I. I think we can both agree to let the two young football players do the (literal) heavy lifting.
First though, off to buy presents for my mom. I'm getting her a gift certificate to get her hair done. My dad is getting her one for her nails. She's all covered lol. And picking up some flowers for the cemetery, both of my grandmothers are passed.
Overcast, 63, and humid. Just about right for this time of year.
Everyone is off doing something.
Dad is at work, Jesse goes in to work at noon, Caitlyn is doing her errands, my brother has mom out shopping and whatever else. Aaron and I will take the trash off, and then I'm going to be making a strawberry cobbler and getting things ready for our little cook out tonight.

Happy Saturday everyone! Gray and cold now but it will be even crappier later with pouring rain. I just stopped in to say hi to flannie. I know how much she misses me...

I usually buy food at the grocery, but whatever floats your boat.

Back from taking the trash off. Picked up what I needed at the store.
Mom has decided she wants to go to cracker barrel instead of cook out.
So we are getting ready to do that.
Sinuses are killing me.

For the fresh flowers, if they didn't come with
a packet of powdered flower food, crush up an
aspirin tablet and dissolve it in the water. It
will help keep the flowers fresh.

How about getting an arrangement of silk flowers
for the Grandmothers? Wal Mart has inexpensive
holders (12" high) with hard foam in the center.
Take the stake out of the center, but don't put it
in the bottom yet. Put the holder in a tall glass,
and arrange your flowers in it, THEN put in the
stake. Silk flowers will last several months, and
not be affected by wind, rain, or sun. The holder
can be used over and over again, for whatever
season you want to observe.

Hemi is holding in there at 14. We keep waiting for the day. But he's plugging away with some arthritis. If he gets sick we'll put him down. Layla is fantastic. Her allergies are under control. And Carlee hasn't had a seizure in a long time. We're leaving them for two days soon and it's the first time we've left them. EVER. So we have long typed out instructions for the sitter and things labeled and a list of emergency numbers. We're like new parents.

If you take your dog to Starbucks with you, you can order a Puppacino! They give you this little tiny cup of whipping cream and you can feed it to your dog. Dairy is okay for dogs! Carlee loved it! (Oh, and it's FREE!)
