I DID IT AGAIN!

I am so far behind I know I am first! 
 

I just keep taking on more projects before I finish any of the others I started.  First, there are the kittens.  They are so cute.  Every morning and evening I go over to the shed to feed Cleopatra and check on the kittens.  I also make sure she has clean water and I clean her litter box.  Of course, I have to visit for a while to say hello and keep them company.
 

Of course, I have a lot of hungry birds coming to the feeder so I fill those every day.  I also need to decide where to put the hummingbird feeder.  I know the hummingbirds are around because one tried to eat from a decorative red ball I have hanging out by my deck.
 

I have finally finished the CRAP JEOPARDY except for the bells and a large piece of cardboard.  I have set up the teams with the people I know are going to be here.  I split them up so “families” are not together.  The team captains are Bob, Renea and Tracy. 
 

I am still working on the FIRST ANNUAL JIM AKER SCAVANGER HUNT.  I have most of my items together and the list each team will be given.  Not that it makes any difference.  If it works like it did on Boomer Road everyone will help everyone else.  That’s okay.  They just won’t know the secret as to which item will win the prize.  Anyway, I still have quite a bit of work to do on that.
 

I still have not decided on who I will hire to put up my gutters and downspouts.  I have only received one bid and I thought it was rather expensive.  Going to get a few more bids.
 

My deck needs a coat of stain and waterproofing.  I have decided to hire Anthony to do that.  He said he would.  Now we just need a few days of no rain.  Since we decided to do this, we have had a rain shower every day.  Rain is also predicted for the next few days.
 

The grass needs cutting, but that will have to wait a few days. 
 

I still need to spring clean my house. 
 

I have been working on the website for BKM Wood Products LLC business.  It’s just about ready to upload to the internet.  I have the domain name and have set up our email addresses.  I am also getting ready to order our business cards.  We have decided to make up some fliers.  That’s also on my list (which just keeps getting longer).
 

And, I just couldn’t wait.  I had to go and buy some rocks for my one area in the front and side of my deck.  I bought white rocks.  They are looking really good.  However, I didn’t buy enough so it’s back to Lowe’s I will be going. 
 

I also bought two geraniums.  I think I will leave them in the pots and just set them in among the rocks.  I am getting new growth on my hydrangeas.  I’m watching my encore azaleas.  They should be starting to get buds on them for their next bloom cycle. 
 

Okay.  Break is over.  Time to head over to Kevin’s for supper.

OK! I'm worn out just reading all the stuff you're doing, planning on doing, or in the middle of doing. Time for me AND you to rest!

Those kittens are really cute, and that is saying something, as I am not really a cat lover. And, you can never have enough rocks around, so keep those rocks coming. They are really great, once they are down. They do not need cutting, weeding or trimming. They just sit there and look better with age. Happy Mother's Day, Marilyn, and please take a day of rest on Sunday!
Love, Arlene and Bob
