Sunday Update.. On Monday..

I just was so busy yesterday.. as well as exhausted.. I never got here yesterday.. summer is often very busy for me.. as I do some housesitting over the summer.. plus my gardening.. the last couple of weeks have been really busy as I am taking care of some cats for a friend who is (was) in the hospital with knee surgery.. Jazz helps her doing her housecleaning.. me.. I just do the cats.. smile.. H. is home now.. we went to get her on Sunday and got her shopping and home.. as well as driving another friend shopping.. so my day didnt end until 9 pm last night.. and I just past out instead of doing anything else..  hit the sack before 11 pm last night..

Today I will be working on my last day of free ads on Ebay.. still have some items to put up.. that should keep me busy today.. I have some books and patterns to get up.. there.. then if I have time, want to put some more items up on Listia.. still clearing out items I dont want.. an endless job.. grin.. 

Iam hoping tonight I can watch TV and crochet.. last two nights didnt have time.. too much running around.. Well... back to Ebay.. if you want to see what I have up there.. click on this.. and it will direct you to my account. 

Saturday Update -- Crocheting and Tomatoes..

Finished another set of towels.. these are apple designs.. with pale yellow toppers edged in green with apple buttons.. no pictures yet.. need time to get them.. alot of running around today.. again... tonight I will be back to working on coasters for an order.. want to finish those over the weekend.. 

We picked up four Big Daddy tomato plants (those will be our fried green tomato and tomato sandwich tomatoes).. you can see more info on them here.  I dont often buy hybrid plants, but we want some really large tomatoes.. 

I noticed my next pot of lettuce and spinach is coming up.. which is good.. Now I should have enough for salad every day.. I generally have 3 or 4 pots going throughout the summer.. Love my fresh salad.. 

Sorry I havent been here..

Just been busy with a lot of little things.. Dr appts, getting my pots ready for planting, transplanting seedlings to pots, planting seeds in starter pots, planting spinach and lettuces.. cleaning outside.. helping a friend with her cats (she is in hospital/rehab for knee surgery).. doing crochet orders, and of course the everyday things.. just had to put off things.. like my blog.. decided to update today.. thought this would be a perfect picture on how I feel.. smile.. 

Finished a Few Things..

Last couple of days have been busy for me.. with going to Physical Therapy for my knee and back, starting to do the exercises, getting ready to plant more (need to get my pots ready), planting seeds - spinach, lettuce, cucumbers.. Transplanting green peppers.. doing a ton load of wash before the storms come in (we got rain and thunderstorms listed for tonight and tomorrow.. and maybe into Thurs!!

I did find time to get my pictures done of the last two towel sets I just finished.. one is Live Laugh Love (for an order) and the other is Patriotic Rooster.. do check these out.. especially the Patriotic one (on Etsy).. and favorite it for me.. or even like it to you Facebook Page.. thanks..
