company and life....

well, where too start?!

fall is here....the cotton is ready -but it keeps raining so it's getting wet...and your can't bale wet cotton (i don't think). And it wasn't a good year for cotton anyway so now it's really sad looking, so our southern snow is not so white....


Here are my visitors from last week! they were here all week and we got some stuff finished! the dishwasher, fridge, 2nd bathroom, and dryer are all hooked up....there is a new porch on the side of the house....and there is gutter on the backside of the house! plus i got a bunch of trim finished and ready to put up...

This is my back door....its still got junk from what Ryan left...and it was taken in the dark but i made the flower bed one day several weeks ago....after faithful watering about everyday and fertilizing biweekly the flowers are finally blooming and taking off! Yay! i only killed about 3 petunias! :-) the white flowers are revived from what i planted in a pot this spring..and the dianthus (kinda straggly yet) i planted from  seed in the garden earlier in the year! i just cut the herbs all back on Saturday and they already are looking good and grown out 3 days later! The one Gerber daisy plant has 4 flowers on it! it was blooming beautifully when i got it and then didn't bloom all summer! the minute i plant it in the ground it takes off!

The purple and white petunia is one of 2 that survived the wet summer! they didn't fair so well with all the rain we got this year! and the long straggly mum is whats left from something i bought last fall and never planted! 
   
just a close up of the otherside....it all still needs work but is a definitely improvement from the nasty beach sand that was there before!

ponderings...

Some times i wonder....why do i even blog? do ppl even read it? but then i wonder am i selfishly wanting ppl to notice? do they have to comment? I rarely comment on other's posts...so why should they comment on mine? I do try to comment all the time! but for some reason since my computer is so slow....the internet anyway...it tells me i'm not allowed to....so even if you don't see a comment from me know that i wanted to! and maybe that's everybody elses problem! the same one i have! their internet's being snotty! ha! ;) I love to read all the blogs i do read and wish like crazy that i could comment! so here a some comments i've thought about recently.... Amy...I loved your Christmas blog! and i know ya'll might get tired of me saying this...but it almost brought tears to my eyes...thinking as how we miss out on that kinda stuff here in South Carolina.....since everybody else...or a bunch of everybody else is way out there! But thanks for the pictures and all...

Hello to all....

I'm sitting in northern Wisconsin at my aunt's house figuring out how to use this! wow! i shoulda just started pushing buttons before....that's what she had me do! pushing buttons is what i do best when it comes to computers! ;-) cause that's what your do right?! This wireless internet is really nice...i'm going to have to get use to my slow phone at home again in about a week...I am supposed to fly home next monday....if the weather isn't bad...the weather has been lovely! I have been enjoying the crispness of the northern air! I will have to learn to endure the muggy wet of the south...i did it last year to i'll survive again! School teaching is something I love! i forgot how much i loved it until about 3 weeks ago when i began teaching again as a substitute teacher here at Northwoods...It was a little strange at first being in a new school and stuff but i soon got used to it and am loving it! now to get enough sleep to be able to function properly! :-) I ...

i Think it's time...

To go on a trip! I was thinking that i needed to get out my suitcase to pack to go on the camping trip and all of a sudden realized how odd it felt to be getting it out....and thinking back to camping trips before how it didn't feel so odd to get packed up....well, i suppose that means i've been working too much and not going places anymore! ha ha! This summer i may get a few excursions in here and there...but not sure yet if i will or not.....i am going to LA for 10 days, but there are a few other places to go too..... i mean i need to put my suitcases to use right?! :-) it's definitely time! ha ha! in other news...this weekend is the end of school....graduation....etc! I have to milk this evening because one of the sons of the guy I milk for is graduating....and the mama usually milks and she wondered if i would for her...i get the next 3 days off...so i'm milking tonight... I have 2 more weeks at the store...and 3 weeks till i go to LA... In the mean time there is GA...
