Oh, my!!! So, the last post that I wrote was back in May!!! Good grief!!! I am so very sorry about that!! I had really good intentions back then to pick up on my writing. But I had so many things on my "To-Do" list, that I just kept pushing my writing back. I'd tell myself that I needed to get other things done before I wrote on my blog.
I am happy to say that I have finally finished my spring cleaning!!! Yeah, Yeah...Don't say it - "it is now fall." But in my defense, spring cleaning is hard to do with a little one year old girl. She is quite a busy girl and she is a magnet to buckets of water. Just imagine the combinations there!!!
I also have canning and freezing complete. I had a garden this year that was by far the WORST garden that I have ever had. It was attacked by these white bugs, skunks, deer, and a host of other hoodlums!! Luckily, my mother's garden is always spectacular and I also have a local farmers market that I get things from. I wanted to make sure I had a lot of fruits and veggies for her throughout the winter months. I want Carolyn to eat as healthy and as non-processed foods as possible. I wouldn't call myself a tree-hugger, but I am not a fan of all of that yucky stuff building up in her little body.
Fall decorations are now adorning my home. In my defense, they have been up for several weeks. I put them up as soon as I finished my "spring" cleaning!
There are lots of other little things that I have gotten accomplished, but spring cleaning and food preservation are the two big ones.
I could continue to type, but I've got clothes to iron, clothes to wash, clothes to hang up on the clothesline, and spare ribs to cook in the pressure cooker before Carolyn wakes up.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day with this chilly fall weather!
