I hope that you had a nice weekend where you're at and that your week is off to a great start! Happy Monday! 💗
My Mums - October 2018
The weekend here disappeared in one big blur and I accomplished very little over the course of it, but the days leading up to it were quite productive with much being accomplished.
I got together with my lawyer early in the week and got some paperwork taken care of, wished grandson, Timothy, a Happy 15th Birthday, and enjoyed an afternoon and a couple of evenings visiting with some of the children and their families.
I got the weed-eating done and all but one of the iris beds mowed down. After I get that done, I hope to get the trees trimmed up and a bunch of saplings that have sprung up cut down. Then, I want to work on the back fencerow. It is a mass of tangled weeds and vining plants including honeysuckle and poison ivy. I hope to get all of that cleaned up before the snow flies.
I also rode over to Aldi's with Amber and got started on a winter stock-up.

Another great Christmas gift idea...
What wonderful news about the grandchild. You have been busy one thing I dont miss about winter in Michigan is snow and being stuck at home. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYes, it was officially confirmed today and the due date is June 14th. I seem busy, I know, but, the truth is, I spend a good part of every day wandering around feeling lost and not knowing what to do with myself. I hope your week is off to a great start. Blessings!
DeleteI love how busy you are and the things you are getting done.
ReplyDeleteLike I just told Lisa, I seem busy, but a good part of my days are spent wandering around feeling lost without my husband. I'm trying to add extra things to my list to try to fill in the gaps. I hope your week is off to a great start. Blessings!
