it's friday, payday, and we're now broke!!

cause i paid ALL the bills, and i am so grateful that i could pay all the bills. there was a time when i couldn't.
ok first off
angie- i think i am going to do exactly that ......... this iron thing is insane
and catherine i am going to get a cheapo iron for like 10 bucks and not put water in it....
garilynn, i have so many books in this house there is no room for us, we have the same delemia, no one to leave our stuff to
our family doesn't care about books
or antiques (they see old things as just so much junk...... )
ok
today, it's cooler!!! so chickens go OUT thank goodness
ducks go out
vi goes out and hangs the laundry she had to rescue in the storm....(bras when flying into TREES- it wasn't pretty)

so it's supposed to be cooler all weekend, that means chickens out all weekend..... and hopefully the garden bed that is waiting gets filled as well as planted.

i again hang out the laundry that is still wet from yesterday (but extremely well rinsed)
i discovered that it would be a very good idea to put a small apartment sized washer in the studio... this way i only have to schlep one flight of stairs instead of two.
now, to convince bernie of it

let's see what else is on the agenda for today.... oh, ahem...... cleaning the FRIDGE......
yeah, i was trying to forget about that... oh man was i trying to forget about that. at least doing two shelves and a drawer.

**what usually happens is that i dread doing something....putting it off.... then i say ok i will do just THIS part of it today, next thing i know it's 6 hours later and i am done with the whole thing*** i have to take breaks sometimes to rest my legs a bit..... or sometimes my back or shoulders
gee when did i get this old?
i remember when i used to be able to go all day

i also do have to get the iron. FAST actually, since i have clean shirts but can't wear them as they are way too wrinkled from washing and hang drying.

ok so today it's more of the same after chickens and ducks.....gardening and laundry (handwashing does take a bit more time then machine washing, and i am doing all the change of season..... YES I KNOW i'm late.... gee i'm lucky i got it going NOW, instead of september)

meanwhile there is an art supply sale on..... saunders waterford paper on sale...... but i am being good as i can't afford it
sniff
ok
well i will talk to you all tomorrow (or tonight if i don't think i can get to you all in the AM)

oh and bernie did something sweet for me both last night and this morning, last night he bought me swiss cheese, as i had mentioned a bit ago i would like some.
and this morning he TRIED to call me and wake me up ......i was already up and down, pouring my first cup of coffee.......
he admitted that with all the responsiblity on his job, he's sort of been a bit neglectful of me

i think i'll renew his contract and keep him a while longer.....

hmmmm

vu
