This weekend is Easter as we all know. I have 4 grown children i need to go see,one who just got out of the Airforce. I also have 6 grandkids,4 grandsons,2 granddaughters. I miss them alot. But i also have two aging parents ,their in their 80's. Dad has Alsheimers and is in the nursing home.Mom is still at home and misses dad im sure quite a bit, married 56 years. I have a sister who lives fairly close to them,and being im 6 hours away i feel quilty quite a bit.
So this Saturday were going home. The gardens will have to take care of themselves,lord willing they will survive.
Our animals will be looked after by Rons brother.
Earlier this evening Ron went out to cut some wood to catch up on some for next year i think,and a little to burn tonight. The fireplace has been out for a week or so now,and there was a chill all day in the house,central heat just doesnt warm you as good as wood!
For supper tonight i made quesadias.I use Monterey jack cheese and green chili peppers in them,i roll them up in egg roll wrappers,then deep fry.
For the sauce i just use a can of tomato and green chili sauce,yum!
I decided to put a few more of my collection of enemalware on here tonight,also 1 of our Boyds Bears we also collect. Have a good night all.

another day traveling around

we took off early in the truck, wasnt a good day to be outside working in the yard,windy and wet.so we went and took back a umbrella we bought at walmart and a sprayer to lowes,cause ron forgot he had one and had bought another,lol..
then while at walmart we bought 18 more azeala bushes to plant near the barn,the color will be great there,next to the old barn boards.
then went to colonial nursery in blue springs and found some geraniums for 3.99 better than 6.99 we paid the other day.
oh also picked up another tree rose at lowes,it was already blooming,and the flowers as big as the kind david austin has.

also got a fushia at walmart,like them but the weather is going to be down in the high 20's next week, so ill be carrying in alot of plants and covering up some outside,what a bummer!







well have a good night all...hugs.
