Inside my head.........

............is a place you really don't want to be.  It's a jumbled up mess of plans & ideas.......kinda like pinterest on steroids!  No wonder I don't sleep at night!
Ever since we finished the patio last year it has bugged me that when I sit out there I could see the garbage cans.......I know....move them!  Not an option.  So I decided to make a screen to hide them.  It was such a great plan inside my head & I had it totally figured out even down to how I would manage to get a 4 x 8 sheet of lattice in my little car.  I did all the math & had all my figures on a little scrap of notebook paper that I kept losing!  The plan was to get someone at H*me Dep*t to cut out the pieces I needed.
WRONG!  Big sign above the saw saying "We do NOT cut lattice"  Me, being me, asked anyway but they told me that it's plastic so not good for the blade.

Okay...plan B....go to L*wes.  Checked it out & no sign so I figured it was a go!

 Popster caught wind of what I was up to & came with me.  I dragged my sheet of lattice over to the saw only to be told no!  See above reason.

Had I been alone this would have been my cue to say:  "Reallycomeonguysworkwithmenowhowdoyouexpectlittleolemetogetthishumongoussheetoflatticeinmylittlecar?" while pouting & other theatrics!

Apparently that only works with Popster!

 Dang!  Now I had to listen to the lecture all the way home as to why I come up with such crazy ideas that I can't possibly do alone & it went on all the time he was helping cut out the pieces.  I think secretly he was enjoying it but wasn't going to let me know that!

My plan also included making this to hide the gas meter....after all I has a big humongous sheet of lattice to use up.  The top isn't finished yet but it will be today.
I was told I am not allowed to add any more projects to the "list" for at least a month! 

I wonder if that includes the "list" that is inside my head?

Love

Forever Family Day

Oh my.....where does the time go!  Ten years ago this scared & tiny little girl was brought into a room full of strangers. She was so confused by the strange faces. Now look at the beautful, confident girl she has grown into. We love you LiLi💖 Love

Yowsa!

 I was woken up around 3:30am yesterday by thunder as a line of severe storms were rolling through the area.  My alarm goes off at 4:00am so I figured I'd just get up.  I was standing in the kitchen waiting for the coffee pot when there was a blinding explosion in the back yard along with a huge clap of thunder.  It was like someone threw a bomb in the yard....needless to say it scared the crap out of me & I was waiting for a tree to fall.  We didn't see anything & I left the house at 7:00am while it was still raining.  Popster didn't see this until last night but it had struck this big oak that is about 15 feet from our sun room.  It just stripped that piece of bark right off the tree  Makes the expression "Don't mess with Mother Nature" become very real!
