The last several days have been beautiful and so it is with great joy that I hang the laundry on the line. How I will love crawling into the bed made with the crisp clean sheets.
This morning I loaded up Big Blue the pickup with 8 bags of this local organic soil. I wasn't going to purchase any this year and meant to use only compost and the Mr. was to do a good tilling, but the excessive rain has made that impossible and time is running out...maybe next year.
The chickens lovingly offered to do some much needed weeding which they made quick work of.
Goldie, who is in charge of garden chores gave them the cluck of a job well done and said it was time to go, sit in the shade and get cleaned up.
This is the backyard that used to be grass. With all of the flooding, this was the highest ground and so I allowed them back here...chickens and really wet ground for a long time somehow make grass go away. Planting grass will be next...Whew!

The Line breaks...Oh well, another thing to put on the list for 2012!

Snow, really? I will pretend I didn't hear that, I am not going to let this opportunity pass by. It has been far too long since I have been able to use my line and so tonight we will sleep on sheets with the sweet smell of the sun. 
Hopefully, my computer will be all well by Monday. Carbonite is doing it's thing right now to back up our files and when that is done, McAfee will take over and I won't be stuck on the phone with tech help..Ugh.
