Friday...Again ALREADY?!?!



I have done my best to savor every little bit of falling in love and starting a relationship. We have been together 2 1/2 years and yet we still have so much to share and learn as a couple.I love the newness of it all,learning how to communicate and how to best be supportive of each others' needs despite life's ups and downs.I saw a great quote once that explains what I'm feeling-"I can tell you in an instant that I love you but it will take me a lifetime to show you how much". I feel lucky that I get to learn how to love and care for a man that loves me as much as Vern does!I might sound old fashioned but I take great pride in keeping my man happy and my house in order (as much as possible,keep reading..)!
My newest lesson hit me today. When Vern works 7 days a week for more than 2 weekends in a row..I need to pitch in more with housework! I didn't realize how much he does before I get home in the evenings!We have our hands full taking care of Del AND his house and yard! So I am switching gears and preparing to do some meal planning tomorrow and some much needed dusting and cleaning before I go back to work for the week. The make ahead meals were a life saver last week, so I thought I would do a few more for this week. As for the house,I will bleach and vacuum what I can and sanitize and windex the rest.The deep cleaning will have to wait. I appreciate my hard working man,I will continue to do my best to support him anyway I can :) Even if that means I have to keep cleaning up after his 48 year old brother..*sarcastic sigh*

 On a lighter note,I wanted to share this weeks harvest from our garden! The little corn were so delicious despite the fact that they looked a bit funky! haha Tomorrow I am grating and freezing all that zucchini for bread this winter.Thankfully this year I have a food processor,thanks Vern!
AND THEN..
I found these cute little things at Rite Aid and couldn't pass them up..
I am going to spray paint them...just not sure what color yet. Perhaps I will see what we have in the garage..
I want to use them for planters yet...they would be cute inside too...like maybe with sand and candles or magazines...or a houseplant. Hmmmm? Any suggestions creative friends?
PS- I edited my mole and crow's feet out of the pic above for the "Botox" effect(haha) and erased under eye circles! Did you notice? What do you think? I don't think I look different enough to ever consider getting stuff injected in my face!

  1. It is sooo hard to keep up with everything...especailly when the "man of the house" isn't there to do his part...hang in there!! He wouldn't be working that hard forever; we hope!! :)
    The planters are very cute!! I think pink or purple would be nice for in the yard?!
    As for you're photo shop...You are perfect the way you are...no need for botox or mole removal!!! ;)

    Love you!!
