Stay with me Summer

Whew, Man oh Man it has been HOT!! I keep forgetting to take pictures of my outfit so you will have to pretend to be entertained with my plants :) I am still loving my job and the group I work with. I have really enjoyed my time off from school but August 16 is looming closer and closer. I keep telling myself I'm not crazy to pursue this.  I don't know about you but this summer has flown by the end of July, I can see fall peeking around the corner. I absolutely LOVE summer. I am still trying to work up the nerve to attempt canning - so far only made tomato sauce and salsa that I froze. Garden did not product any squash or cucumbers to my disappointment.  BUT..... Mr. Man just came in proudly showing me some good looking and edible corn this year!!! YAHHHH


This is the lonely survivor of the rabbit invasion

Trying to survive the heat

Birds keep making nests in the flowers on my porch this is in my begonias

Can you see the little one?

The babies are gone from the one

Still thriving

New Family Member :)

Wow, has it really been that long since I blogged. Alot has happened, I finished my BA and start on my MBA on August 16. I have truly enjoyed my freedom. I have been catching up on some reading - finally finished James Patterson Witch and Wizard - The Gift and read Sam's letter to Jennifer and now I have started Her Fearful Symmtery by Audrey Niffenegger which is really good, this was a suggested reading by Kristine that she brought me to check out.

My daughter turned 18 and then she recently got married July 19, 2011. They got married by the Justice of the Peace and said they would have a proper wedding later. Then Shelley got a scare when the doctor found a lump in her breast. We had the ultrasound on Friday and they feel that it is benign but will still get a biopsy to make sure. I have faith that all is well. I have missed blogging and hope that I can now start focusing on the things I love.
