Time Flies

house paintAnother week gone. WTH.

At least my torment is over. The house paint has been purchased. I chose these colors – - – - – >
then bought the paint the same day so I wouldn’t have the opportunity to reconsider.

Notice the trim color is called “Pink Suede?” It looks a lot pinker in the can than I think it should. Ack! And I haven’t decided on the porch-floor color yet, but I do know I’m not fond of the blue they’ve used in this example.

And we planted a vegetable garden last weekend. Haven’t seen the sun since.

I still have hopes that in a couple of months we’ll be eating fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, summer squash and eggplant.

robinsI don’t know when they hatched, but the Robin’s are now in and out all day tending to the babies. We’re holding off power washing the porch until they’ve left the nest. They look darn near as big as their parents. I think they’re just hanging around for the free room and board.

I may not be popping in as often as I should for the next month or so. Since we only get a few short months of decent weather around here, on the days that I’m not really busy I’m going to have to invent stuff to keep me busy in an effort to avoid all the invitations for various social gatherings that are pouring in. I think we’ve been invited to every graduation and/or wedding within a 70 mile radius. Ugh.

    thinkin >> You probably wouldn’t love the bird-babies so much when you discovered yourself knee deep in Robin droppings. The porch will look like an outhouse before they finally leave.

    thinkin >> Hey, it’s the least I could do after the guy-in-the-striped-socks visual that you gave me. Twice. :)
