Home 1 & 1/2 Weeks, whew.















Boy is there a lot to do when you move from one home (motor home) to another (the house). I bet we moved two dozen boxes from the motor home to the house and most of them are still full. It took until Saturday (10 days) to get the motor home emptied, cleaned and moved out to the property with the gravel pad. I'm encouraged because the house looks better without that in the driveway. I wish I had a picture to share because the motor home is almost as big as the house. It is as long as the entire driveway and half as wide. We barely got the little trailer and RAV 4 in the other half of the driveway. Now you can see my blooming flowers,
Ta-Da!!!

For the first 3 days at home I was sick with a chest cold and upset tummy but I'm much better now. Now I'm just sick of unpacking boxes, lol.

I have spent a little time knitting, enough to finish the shrug. It measured exactly 62 inches when done (which is what it was supposed to measure). It was dirty (white yarn) so I put it in cool water and cleaned it. Unfortunately it relaxed to a whopping 74 inches. I'm going to unravel the sleeves and replace the cuffs. Oh well, it's only time, ha, ha.

I did plant some vegetables and flowers. I bought some squash, broccoli, swiss chard and tomatoes. I found some hanging baskets too with my favorite color of pansies. I also potted some pansies and petunias in several hanging baskets and planter pots. My house has COLOR this spring, Hooray!!!

you make me sick (*with jealous that is)! All my little flowers haven't bloomed, and any that have (like the pansies) have been plucked to death!

I cheated and bought blooming pots and individual blooming plants to make my house colorful.

I have a "Brown Thumb" when it comes to planting seeds. The only way I can get color is to "cheat".
