Around Here - Being domestic and all that


Lately there's just been lots of crafting and sun bathing and being lazy. We also met up with our realtor and the house is going on the market in May. So we are spending our weekends weeding and fixing up the yard that the winter wrecked to make it more presentable. So far each weekend we spent raking old leaves and hundreds of sticks from fallen branches and each week we have 3 full garbage cans full of crap for the yard waste truck to pick up. At least we'll get to enjoy our clean and tidy yard for the summer.

Seeeee? There's still more piles for next week!


Trying my hand at being a domestic goddess and this happens...


We got a garden gnome flag that is sure to make the house sell...


Our wheat grass is thriving thanks to Rupert...


But the basil has a long way to go...


And Mabel is still exceptionally good at giving me the lovey eyes...

    I so want one of those fish tanks!! May not be able to wait until my little's birthday to get one. :D Lol at the outdoor clothes drying - one thing I've never attempted that's for sure. Good luck with the house selling, hope it all works out.

    oh yea, she knows exactly what she's doing. and since its fun to watch her catch treats in the air, all the more fun to give them to her :) monty is finally catching on that catching treats = more treats so he actually caught a few too, which he's never done before.
