More on Tuesday

What's going on...

  • Helped two sons with digging out garden area, with them doing the hard work---just 4x6' or thereabouts---and put in 4 rows with tomatoes, banana peppers and onions.
  • Rearranged the living room.
  • Did a quick run through of most of the house, tidying up.
  • Had a tea party with the two little girls, complete with a sliced up Danish, part of a Hershey bar and one Ferrero Rocher a piece. A feast!
  • Have enjoyed having fewer kids in the house---at one time, it was just the 2 least ones and me :) Very quiet. Makes you wonder.
  • Three boys at shop helping Gary.
  • Two boys spent part of early afternoon doing yards (not ours).
  • Finished reading Ted Dekker's book The Boneman's Daughters, which was violent and disturbing...used to Dekker being a bit difficult to read, but the horrors portrayed in this one make the Christian message hard to get to, in my opinion---2 of the kids read it and weren't disturbed like I was---go figure.
  • About to put dinner together---leftover spaghetti from last night and two cherry pies---not in a mood to roll out pastry, but will anyhow (how long-suffering of me, eh?!!).
  • Hoping for a low impact night. Thankfully had a short nap, so feel relatively normal----for me.
  • Now must go. Look a fright and need to do something with this hair. Bye. ;)
