Fingers Crossed Weekend Recap

Good Monday to you fine party people!  I hope you got to enjoy the mid-May weekend.  We kind of did.  What was not in the brochure was a nice power outage Friday at lunchtime just as the Mr was trying to cook his egg in the microwave.  While he hooked up the Bluetti's to the fridge and crockpot (kicking myself for not doing that Thursday), I put his egg on a small cookie sheet and put it over two candles and covered it with another cookie sheet.  It might take 3 hours but if you think with the price eggs that we're losing that thing, nope!  😝 Welp, I was finally able to transplant the wee (and not so wee) seedlings to their permanent homes.  I was basically forced out there due to the power outage Friday but thankfully it wasn't oppressively hot.  I got the clematis' potted up to bigger pots , sweet peas transplanted, my herb pot together and the zinnias and snapdragons in the wall planter.  Thankfully the electricity came back on by 4pm so...

  2. Enjoy your weekend with company! I'm going to mom's tomorrow to have some heavy talks about going forward. One of my pups is going to the groomers but the hubs is taking care of that since I'll be 50 miles away. Can't wait to see my little guy all spruced up minus a lot of hair! LOL I'm on-call this weekend so God willing it'll be quiet. Somewhere in there we need to cut the lawn (it's in the 90's here this weekend) and get to the grocery store.

  3. Finishing up my week long class today, and heading home tomorrow. I have no idea what condition my house will be in (I left it clean, but I'm guessing no-one has cleaned the cat boxes or cleared the leaves from the pop-up pool). So the rest of the weekend will be getting that under control and doing laundry, Plus, now that my kitchen is in order - it's time to finish the upstairs. Joy.

    Have a great weekend!
