Shelly and Janice, it's hard to think about snow, though I know it's not far away for us as well.

I got everyone out the door and off to school this morning, then went to the grocery store. Everything is put away, and I'm on the second load of laundry. I've got several tasks to get caught up on today including folding and putting away all the laundry, cleaning the kitchen counters, and baking muffins.

I have a small wall quilt to finish sewing the binding, then I'm getting back to work on my queen-sized quilt. It's a churn & dash pattern in fall colors that's been in process for too long!  ;)

Winona, great job on finishing the fall quilt--what a thoughtful gift!

Dinner tonight is probably hamburgers, or I might put chili in the crockpot after lunch.

Have a great day!
Jennie

Good afternoon!  Janice and Shelly, hard to believe that you are getting snow already.  It's 68 and sunny here today, and will be in the 70s for the next few days. 

Went to the feed store again today, thank goodness it is payday because we were out of everything.  I have Julie doing school work and banana bread in the oven.  I have laundry to fold and put away and then I will see what I can find in the garden.  I want to make mint jelly today too, while I still have the canner out from doing salsa the other day.  Then I think I can put it away for a while. 

Dinner tonight will be burgers on the grill, probably with a big salad. 

Have a great day everyone! :)

I wish I could get out of this "slumming it" mood. I just want to sleep, be lazy, rest up. Today is 41 weeks... and I've got little boys asking for food (come on... I fed you yesterday! ;)) and messes to clean up and tears to wipe. Just one of those times I wished my mom or sister could come for a little weekly reprieve.

I can't believe you guys are already getting snow... we were having a little heat wave yesterday! Trade ya! :D

I am sympathizing with you right now.  Although I have never gone over, always somewhere between two weeks early to two days early.  I can't imagine a week over!  :o If only you lived closer.  I would be more than willing to help you in these last kind of miserable days of it. :)  I know what it is like to not have help during that time period.  Hey look at it this way at 41 weeks he/she HAS to come out soon.  I am told that they cannot stay indefinitely! :D  Anyway hope you are able to get a nap this afternoon, but look out if you wake up and need everything spotless. ;)

Leahsgarden:
I'm still banking on Monday or Tuesday for the birth. Maybe if I put everything off, my sister will do it for me when she comes on Sunday. ;)
