I have been slowly working on the room in the garage and tearing down the kitchen. The piles of tree branches are very slowly going down, although I can see a difference. If I put in a few good solid hours this week-end, the difference should be really noticeable. I'm hoping to have them all chipped up by the middle of September. That's my goal. In the meantime, the gardens are struggling along. I try to keep them watered...we have been getting practically NO rain all summer...VERY unusual...but have not had time to do much of anything else. I wish I could clone myself. I think four of me would be good...one to be in charge of cleaning up the house, one to stick with the yard and gardens, one to do all the hard work (chipping branches, building fences, tearing down cabinets, etc), and then one who could concentrate on taking baths and reading long books. I guess I'd better make a 5th one...one to go off to work and support the rest of us.
I've also been trying to finish a mirror frame for Zana. She wanted a sparkly one and it is definitely sparkly!
I have some catching up to do and am not sure what is going on with everyone right now. I hope this is a good week for all of you.

I wish I could come and help you with your gardens at least. Maybe if my ds ever moves out that way I'll do that!
I'm glad your ds is starting a new life. I wish him well. My ds is living proof that there is happiness after divorce. I hope Joe finds it soon!
Hugs, Darby
Know what you mean about the kids' personalities. My ds is like your Zana, dd is like your son, Fearless Fosdick!! I'm sure it has something to do with birth order, BTW that's an interesting book to read, The Birth Order Book is the title. Gives lots of insight on your relationships.
Take care and have a productive weekend, but take time out to smell the roses!!
Hugs, Pam
Good luck getting those clones done in time to help you get it all done this weekend. LOL
Hugs and Love

Slow down lady! One thing you don't have to worry about and thats grass. You sure aren't letting any grow under your feet.
Are you going to put in new cabinets? Redoing the entire kitchen? Sounds like a large project but then the yard and everything are also.
The mirror frames you do sound pretty. Wouldn't happen to have pix would you?
Sending positive vibes to Zana and your son. May their futures hold all they desire. I wish the same for you Kat if you ever find the time to soak them in.
Hugs,

I bet you will feel such a great feeling of accomplishment when the branches are all done with.
I can understand Zana feeling a little apprehensive about taking the plunge and moving.... good thing she has a year to think on it.
Take care and have a great weekend!
Hugs, Lor
Think we got some Oregon weather this month. We've had 3 days with rain! It can happen in August in CA but seldom does. We really had a great T-storm Thursday into Friday....lots of thunder and lightning. Fortunately no forest fires were started by the lightning. The rain was wonderful. I got to turn off the sprinkler system for a few days.
It's important that you take that bubble bath and read a book. You need & deserve that! Hugs!
