Good Morning
Good morning everyone! It's shaping to be another warm day here. Not that I'm complaining at all! It has been unusually cool so far this year, so the heat is nice. The only thing I can find wrong with the heat is that my refrigerator desperately needs cleaning, but I don't want to even open it long enough to do one shelf. I was supposed to make calzones yesterday for dinner but because my grill wasn't working properly and it was too hot to turn on the oven so I ended up making omelets. I'll try again tonight for the calzones. I am also trying to plan next weeks menus. Not an easy task since I am trying to do crockpot or grill meals using what is in the house since our vacation is coming and I want to use up some things before we go. I also need to get some laundry done and weed the garden. I may assign each of the kids an area of the garden and tell them it must be weeded before they can go swimming. :)) Today for lunch I planned biscuits so I'm experimenting with instructions I have to make them on the stovetop. It sounds pretty easy and I think we may be able to do it while we're camping if it works. My husband is going to take my sewing machine to the shop today. It's only needed a tune-up for about 10 years, now it is skipping stitches, won't zig-zag, and has the tension messed up. I can't wait to have it in working order again! I asked him for this for my anniversary present, and even though he thinks it's a terrible gift he's getting it fixed and I couldn't be more excited!
Yesterday was a dentist day. Ger had a cavity filled, which wouldn't have been a big deal except that the dentist hit a nerve while he was giving PG the Novocaine. Poor thing, he was still sore when he went to bed last night. Ed had 2 teeth pulled. Now a NORMAL child would have been excited to put the teeth under their pillow for the tooth fairy. NOT Ed, he hid his teeth so the tooth fairy couldn't find them. He wants to keep them. Too funny. My dad stopped by after we got home and brought a TON (quite literally!) of sand for the kids. In fact Ed is headed out there right now even though it's only 7:30am. He really loves his sandbox!
I have to wander up to the vegetable garden this weekend and see if anything is ready, I doubt it but you never know. I also want to get over to the farmers' market and see what they may have starting to come in. Should be peas and maybe some early green beans ready. I figure I need about 10 pounds of peas and 25 or so pounds of green beans, I don't know how much I'll get out of my garden but I'd guess I'll end up with about half the green beans and no peas (didn't plant any!)
OK, enough wasting time. I have to go start my laundry! Have a great day.
