Hodge Podge Sort of a Post
Monday I wanted to bake so I
made Pumpkin Bread.
Two large loaves and 3 small.
I took a small to mom, froze
2, sliced up a large and took to
vets office where my daughter works
to share with them and I kept a large
one out here at the house.
Yesterday I decided it was cool
enough to get out and clean
on my shed.
I have a Rubbermaid trash can in
there that holds these
items.
My son, Cory's Tonka
trucks.
When I opened the shed I actually intended
to get a door out of there.
Years ago Lowes had inside doors
for sale. I measured all mine
and bought what I needed.
They have been in my
shed for years.
So since I finished that
one guest room I
took the old door off
and needed to grab the right
size to hang. I wanted to
wait till it cooled down
(I don't do heat well) and I
knew it would not be an easy
task.
After throwing everything out
of the shed and starting over I
made a run to Lowes.
I needed brackets.
Here is one in the pic.
I hung two and laid my wood
(except what is still on the deck)
over the brackets. Solved a big
problem this way.
I know you all must think I am
totally spoiled.
The ladies I worked with at the
TBI, Deborah and Cindy (you
have met them here on the blog)
thought I was!
Why~ because my mom was always
shopping for me!
She got this on sale for me the
other day.
I love that scent and she
remembered that.
Plus...she went to Wally World
the other day and found gowns
on sale again. Both these were
$4 each.
Here is a part of my
Halloween decoration that
I will move outside on
Halloween night.
I almost decided I would not
do anything today so Dakota and
I laid down to share the glider on
the deck.
Lily was in a chair.
Thinking we were going to nap....
but then decided I needed to do something.
So....I framed out the painting I did
earlier in the year on the deck.
Now it looks good.
Then just a bit ago I decided to
redo the vine I painted
around the crack in the
sidewalk. When I did it
before I did it small and did
not paint a lot of leaves.
It was hard to see so I
decided to fix the problem.
Bigger, more leaves, and lighter
in color.
Had a guy come out for an estimate
on some wood I need replaced on the house.
So hard getting anyone to want to
do small jobs.
I have his quote and I am working on
trying to get someone else out to give
me an estimate.
This is the worst part
and high up.
The gutter stopped up with leaves
and spilled out doing damage
to the eve under the gutter.
Really need to have this fixed before
winter sets in.
Always something.
Tomorrow I head to my brothers house
for 6 to 7 days again.
You see my sis in laws mom lives
in North Carolina and she
is not well. Lori goes up for
7 days a month, her sister
goes up for 7 days a month and
her brother lives there.
When they come home I will
head to the house for an evening
then I will go to my daughters.
Her and BF are going to NY
for a ball game, thinking that
is when he will give her the ring.
But anyway, someone needs to
keep an eye on my grandson so
I will be there for a night, him
and I will come home Friday night,
then I get him back Sunday night
for school on Monday.
They should be back at some
point Monday night, depending
on time, I might head home.
Anyway....wedding has been moved
from next fall to this spring...
April!
Thanks for stopping in for
the update on life,

Nice that your mom picks up little goodies for you! Candles are nice.
Good luck getting those repairs done, I hope all that is wrong is what we can see.
You're going to have a busy weekend.
The pumpkin bread sounds delicious and it is really nice that your mom spoils you a bit...that is what daughters are for..right? xo Diana
I usually make pumpkin bread also, but will probably wait a big.
Actually, I don't think you're spoiled at all; I think you are very well loved. :)
