No whining allowed

Well, it seems to be Sunday again. After having put in almost 80 hours last week, do I need to tell anyone that I really am not feeling particularly motivated to do diddly? Needless to say, I did go out and weed my teeny little garden that we're going to destroy in the matter or weeks. Yup, spent HOURS removing all the rock that some freakin' genius thought would be a great idea to put in a garden. And no, not my idea of a rock garden, more my idea of a pain in the hinder. Anywho, hours I spent. Then I spent a whole lot less hours planting flowers and some bushes, diligently watered and fed them so they wouldn't die when we were having a bad drought and our grass was dead (well, the grass that wasn't getting watered when I watered my garden that is!). Then I found out, rather, was told, that my dear husband wants to move the driveway so it curves a bit more. No big deal, except moving the driveway so it curves a bit more, puts it right smack dab in the middle of my garden. So...bye bye garden. However, I do win because now we're going to hire someone to come in and design a garden for us with a waterfall for the front yard, then we'll do the work. There are some benefits for having an anal husband, at least I know it'll look nice if we follow the plan!

When I was out weeding my teeny little garden, my ever so loving kitten felt it necessary to run and pounce on me multiple times. The fact that he didn't die in one of the multiple times he found himself flying off my various limbs, is a minor miracle.

Speaking of the kitten, he has decided he loves to play in the barn at night and will just take off sometime after supper and go play for the night. He'll appear when I call him the next morning when the dog goes out, happy as a, well, a kitten. When he's cute, he's sweet, but when he's naughty, he's naughty.

One last thought. I have been wracking my brain to come up with something to wear to the wedding over in N.C. in September, do you think anyone would mind if I go naked since I can't seem to find anything???

Ummm, hmmmm, naked at the wedding...there's an idea! Why didn't I think of that?? What is your kitty's name? Your yard plan sounds lovely!

Believe me, the naked concept occured to me too as I was shopping for something to wear to the wedding, too! By the way, I'm glad you're coming - it will be fun to see you!
