Sorry, I'm still having a problem creating the link back to Part 2.

Everyone is so busy and getting so much done, isn't it great!! I get so inspired reading all your posts!

I crossed a lot off my to do list yesterday. Got the tail light crazy glued so I can go for an inspection, managed to get it on my fingers too!

Dishes done, dog walked, downstairs vacuumed, put away all the coats finally in the attic. Got the laundry all put away, moved some things into the attic against my better judgement, but just wanted them out of sight.

Took apart and cleaned two fans, Laura helped me fold the big tarp I use to cover the mower, etc. in the winter. Got the umbrella on the deck.

Mary sent over dinner Sunday so Laura and I heated it up and ate. Then we walked over to Mary's and my other neighbor came over and we all sat outside. My stepson stopped by, haven't seen him in a long time, so I came home.

Today I need one of the boys to come over and help me get the a/c in the window, we are expecting a big heat wave tomorrow. (I should have asked stepson) That means I better finish up outside also, it will be too hot for yard work the next few days.

Busy couple of days and plans are changing as I type! Home today, getting things done around here. Then tonight we picking up DH from work and Dniece to celebrate her bday. Out for dinner, then frisbee golf! Fun, fun!

Tomorrow, the girls and I were planning to go to AR to meet some TX family members that are vacationing there. Well, I just got off the phone with my cousin and they're all planning to come here! They wanted to see a few things in my town and were going to come anyway! Yea, no 5 hours of driving tomorrow! Some of them I've never met, and others I haven't seen in almost 20 yrs! So excited! Now my DH might even get to meet them! That's what I really wanted! So neat how God works things out!

Hope you all have a great day! Cya!

I've had a busy day to day even though I still don't feel 100%.

Dad went out to the local town on his scooter, so I got the sitting room tided and all downstairs vaccumed.

This afternoon, I found how to do a booklet print on my printer so I can now print off my own filofax stuff from a certain recognised website, but I got creative on my Open Office and I've made up templates for everything I need. I just need to print it all off.

Using the booklet print I will also be able to print my own books then use my new bookbinding skills to make them into books. Oh I'm in for some fun this summer, as I do love to write a good story.

Waterlady:
Been in the 90s here....be prepared. It is horrible...

Friend called and we cancelled shopping tomorrow. So glad, I wanted to cancel it myelf. LOL I agree God works in wonderful ways Wendy. The heat is very hard for me.

Wendy:
Very exciting about the family coming to visit! Have a wonderful time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The carpets are done. Need 6 hours to dry. Have the air on.
It is brutal outside! Staying in. Worked on three card items and am now back to beading. I need a break from all the crafting.

Wendy - Thanks for the info on chiggers. I read everything on the link and I am now itching lol. Very interesting though I am glad we don't have them.

Another busy day here. More work in the garden done, more laundry and I cleaned the downstairs toilet. I also had a cup of tea with one of my closest friends, and met my sister and nephew for lunch.

I am tired again tonight so I am off to bed night all!

Had a great time with Linda's DD! Out to eat, then played frisbee golf! Some nice guys even gave us a couple of real frisbees! (We just had some cheap ones we've gathered through the years. These were actual weighted ones! I actually had a chance with it!)

Diana: you be careful in the heat! So wise to stay inside!

Karen: I used to live in NY and never remember getting anything like chiggers or ticks. Can't stand either of them!

Well, I guess I should be heading to bed soon. My cousin didn't leave a message, so I have no idea what the plans are! Cya!

Wendy: Enjoy your time with your family!

Dianaro: Can you send a little heat this way? I would be glad to have it. Maybe we could split the difference and make it comfortable for both of us. Don't you wish we could make that work?

DD and I were working in the living room this evening. Changed out the long curtains for valances for summertime. Were in the process of washing the windows on the inside when she went to the bathroom to get more paper towels. Apparently when I changed the lightbulb in the hall light last week I didn't get the fixture back on tightly. As she was leaving the bathroom, it came crashing down to the floor. Shattered everywhere and scared us both. Unfortunately she also stepped on a piece of glass and cut the bottom of her toe. Luckily it is not a bad cut, could have been much worse. So got all the glass cleaned up (I hope). I need to finish the windows and get the couch back in place. Then vacuum the living room carpet.

Made a new Mexican casserole for dinner tonight. Since it feels like Fall outside a casserole seemed like a good idea. Very tasty!

DS was supposed to have a doubleheader baseball game tonight but it got canceled so trying to make productive use of my unexpected free time.

It was in the mid-90's here today...hot hot! Had a nice relaxing day...browsed pinterest for an hr after waking up, went back to sleep, walked the dogs, played with DS outside, more playing with ds and our neighbor and her ds (water play-fun!), went grocery shopping with MIL and hit 3 stores, including bread outlet. Bought stuff to make 3 or 4 planned dinners. Dinner with Il's...DH grilled hamburgers, corn, and we had baked beans. Went on a walk after dinner, more hanging out with neighbors and kids. Swept hardwood and kitchen floors earlier and got all the stuff in the porch put back in, ate lunch on the porch. Cleaned out one of our kitchen junk drawers and used little baskets that I had purchased for that reason several weeks ago. Cleaned up some of DS' room, outgrown clothes, etc. Still have a ways to go before we can transition him to big boy bed. Our new bed arrived and its comfy. They took away the old one. Finished washing, folding two loads of laundry.

Back to work tmorrow for three days and anticipate little to no productivity on the homefront for me over the next few days. Have a great night all!

Heat wave here as well... with air conditioning half working in the residences I work at, makes it all the more difficult for everyone, clients included!

Monday, 9h at work, 1hr nap, 6hrs of working on assignment, 5hrs sleep.
Tuesday, 8hrs at work, 1hr working with co-worker on assignment, 2hrs nap, 4hrs of working on assignment, 5hrs of sleep ahead if I fall asleep NOW!

Personal comment on recent events and behavior: darn procrastination!!!

I at least managed to get Thursday off instead of working the day shift. Which alleviates some of the stress, so I get the day to finish, review and print before delivering the final product at 6pm. Actually I switched and will be working Friday evening and because of this I will be working 7 days in a row. yay me. not.

DS woke me up at 6am so I have vacuumed the whole of the house, wiped surfaces, skirting boards,and I have rearranged the storage in the living room.

I have also done a load of laundry and put it on the line to dry in the sunshine.

It is only 9am now so the plans for the rest of the day are play with DS this am then take him to nursery, and I am off to school.

My granddad is coming for dinner so not a lot will get done when I get home apart from dinner and dishes. Just as well I will have run out of energy by then
