The EVE!

As I sit here it is the eve of my 42nd year on this planet. I look around and know that I'm happy with my life. I wouldn't change anything about it. Because the joys and pains have brought me to where I'm at today! I know pretty philosophical.... I even spelled that right! :o) I get the best present ever.... Tomorrow is the last day of school for the littles. My oldest graduated a week ago. I am so proud of her, she graduated with honors. Then Friday I get to sleep in!!!! YEAH, Summer vacation!

But my birthday isn't the only eve that I'm facing. Grim and I are finally back.... I know that really doesn't make much sense. The blog hasn't made much sense over the last few months. Just know that things have finally taken a turn for the better... The much better!  In the next few days Grim and I are going to be looking at several pieces of property. It will be vacation / retirement property. We won't be able to leave this area, until then.... Well, unless my Thirty-One business really takes off! *Smiles* The properties vary in size, price and amenities. I am fairly sure that I will have more news on this next week!

Also even though I'm in the city, I have found out that there are several others in town that have chickens. Did you hear me!!!!! CHICKENS!!!!!! So that's the next eve.... I'm going to get 3 chickens. I'm absolutely thrilled!! I don't know when but I'm hoping that it'll be soon.

I'm finally going to enter into the county fair. I have the form filled out. Just need to drop it into the mail. Then the end of July I have to take it to be judged. It is the flamboyant afghan. I finally finished tying all the ends in. I'm hoping to at least get an honorable mention! No matter how it goes I already have my thoughts to the one I'm going to make for next year's entry.

The last scrap-ghan I posted has used up all the scraps and now I've used 5 more skeins with no end in sight... LOL! Once its done it will be big enough for a queen size bed. Not to bad considering that it started from scraps. Pictures soon!
