Our weekend...

I think we are all pretty much caught up on sleep... from Ellie's ordeal Friday night.  I have to admit, we were in bed before 8pm again last night... and it feels GREAT!!!
Ellie is settling into motherhood rather nicely now that she is free from all of the anesthesia.  She had me pretty worried during those first hours though!!  Now, her babies rarely get out a squeak before she is tending to them.  My only worry now... is Ellie getting all that she needs.  I spend quite a bit of time making sure she is eating, she wont walk away from her babies long enough to really eat very much... so I hold her dish next to her, so she doesnt have to leave them.  LOL
But, 2 days into this... all is good!

Yesterday Stacy, Britt and I went for a hike/off roading adventure!  Exactly what I needed!!  We had a boatload of fun!!!  I, of course, ended up hurting my back and can barely walk today... but I dont care.  I hate all that I have had to give up because of my back... sometimes I get to the point where I will just take the pain and suffering in order to have some fun.  And believe me... today is going to SUCK!

I am so glad that Stacy and I still enjoy our "adventures" together.  I am glad we can get in my truck... and head off road.  Stacy LOVES testing the limits of my truck... me, not so much... LOL
An eventful "off road adventure" is in the planning stages... I CAN NOT WAIT!!
I also think the Graff brothers should team up together, get some cars, and participate in the Figure 8 races at Gratz next year!!  Stacy was talking about how they have done that in the past together... yesterday while we were out and about.  I told him I would be all for it!  Who knows if  he will run with it or not.

The kids are entering an upcoming art show.  Which is why Brittany has been manning my camera lately.  She already has the picture she wants to enter in mind...but wants to keep her eyes open for another photo op.  She will also be entering a drawing, and a poem. 
Nathan will be entering a drawing or 2.
Courtney, of course, will be entering a drawing.
I LOVE that my  kids are artsy!!!!

Brittany is also joining the Art Club with the school.  I am not real sure what club Nathan will choose yet.

It is OBVIOUS that Nathan spent Saturday night with Debbie!!  OMG... he is miserable.  I can only imagine what he ate.  I can guarantee one thing... I am NOT putting up with the crap today!  Sitting in this chair is KILLER on my back... his ass better straighten up and quick! 
I hope he soon realizes that THIS is not something I do for ME... I do it all for HIM!  A little appreciation would be nice.
I really wish people would LISTEN to the instructions I give them regarding MY kids.  It pisses me off when ppl ignore me, like I wont be able to tell.  DUH!

Needless to say... I did NOT get to start my container gardening this weekend.  BUT, I havent given up on it.  I am hoping to get my stuff together today... and get some seeds started.
I have so much to get done in my garden yet... I am feeling a little behind all of a sudden.  I guess when I read the word "snow" on FB this morning it loaded me with anxiety!  LOL!!  UGH... I cant even think about snow yet.
Soooo I WONT!  LOL!!  I already have my laundry hung out today!  It is beautiful out!!  I need to start looking for a new laundry basket cart... that I put my laundry basket on... so I dont have to bend down.  Mine is literally falling apart.  Nathan had to hunt down the missing nuts and bolts for me this morning, and then put it back together... which turned into a big ordeal.  It may be easier to just take out a hamper with me... and set the basket on that.  ;-)

I think that is all I have for now.  I do have a new, yummy recipe to share too!  I hope to get it posted this evening!!
