it’s late(despite the incorrect time on this blog it is 11:45pm Thursday) and I can’t seem to quite my thoughts. They are running through my head like kids playing tag.  50+ friends will be here Saturday evening and I am no where near ready. Walls need painted, the backyard is a mess, food needs prepared and the list goes on. Life doesn’t take a back seat to renovations……kids grow up, graduations happen and celebrations go on despite the sign in my head that flashes, "but wait we’re renovating, the place won’t look like this when we’re done"!  But only those who love us will be here and it will be a great time of laughter and celebration….what else is there really? 

Snails have attacked the gardens and declared war. I think I shall drown their sorry asses in the cheapest beer I can find!  The lettuce and peas are gorgeous producing daily bowls of joy but my beets are struggling for life. No idea why. Tomatoes are looking happy and surprisingly enough, my peppers seem to be thriving. The north is a difficult place for peppers and most often they don’t produce but a few all season. 

I’m off to give sleep another try. 5:30am is the wake up tomorrow so I can go for last minute groceries and be back for K to take the car to work.  It’s tough in the morning but worth it when I get the day to spend working on tasks around the house, uninterrupted.
