So yeah whole lotta nothin' going on right now but I know if I don't make myself write something my blog will sit here for weeks maybe months before I write again.
I pulled weeds out in my poor excuse for a front yard today and then went to my mom's and pulled weeds for her. Still have to weed the stairs that go to her back gate but got the side and front area done. Took me about 4 hours and the weather went from nice and cool to sunny and hot to pouring down rain! Need to mow our back yard but don't have a mower so are having to use a weed whacker. It works but I would like to get a push mower or a small electric mower.
Haven't made any more progress on the greenhouse but hoping to buy some of the siding this coming payday. I think I may go ahead and buy some tomato plants and put them in my herb bed till Carl gets the planters done for them. It's almost June for goodness sake!!
Haven't made any jewelry lately and the only sewing I have done was to make myself an apron. It turned out cute :)
Carl brought home a nice little recliner the other day that someone was throwing out. It's in really good shape but was really dirty. I shampooed it but it didn't really come clean. It's covered in this cream colored fabric so we are going to buy a slip cover for it. I have rearranged the furniture in the living room 3 times in the past 3 days trying to fit the recliner in! I think I like the way I have it done now, lol. The cats seem to like it anyway...
Took Kyle to physical therapy on Tuesday and after I dropped him off I went to Goodwill to drop off a few bags of stuff. Turned off the car, got out, gave them the bags, got back in my car and it wouldn't start-nothing, not even a click when I turned the key. So I pop the hood to see if the battery terminals are dirty, they look fine. So I tell the guy at the donation door my car won't start (I'm blocking the door with my car and the area that people drive thru) He offers to help me push it into a parking spot-thank goodness its a small car. I call my mom to come and get me as I have to get back to pick up Kyle. Then I call Carl to let him know what happened(he is working). He tells me to see if the battery cables are loose. Sure enough one of them turns really easily. I wiggle it around and try to start the car and it starts right up! Woo hoo! Call mom tell her not to come get me and head back to pick up Kyle. When we get home Kyle goes and buys new terminal connector things and puts them on my battery. Yay, all fixed!
