Last week we covered our berries because we knew that any moment they would ripen and that the birds would get them before we would. We just walked around our garden and discovered these beauties ready to be picked. I am so excited that they're our first thing from the garden. So after snapping a few pictures, we ate them. The raspberries are fantastic and sweet. The blackberry, which I have about 100 of them ,are so lip puckering sour.I'm hoping my raspberries will do better. I only have about 5 of them on that bush.Go figure. The good ones come in limited supplies.
The birds waiting for some goodies.
Chris and Jean are on their way down. They'll be here around 8 tonight.We're going to meet them at the hotel and go out to dinner. The guys are getting up early to go to the shooting range and Jean and I are going to hit some yard sales and hopefully a flee market or 2.
I'm hoping to find cotton there. I haven't forgotten. I've been keeping my eye out for some. I think it's the wrong season though. There's a field near by that has some left over from the last harvest. I want to go pick it but I'm sure it's extra dirty since it's been there laying on the ground for several months now.
Today has been a crazy day. Maintenance was out for the 3rd time to fix a leak in the Laundry room. Long story short I don't think the guy knew what he was doing. At first he found where it was leaking .The water was dripping off of the electrical component. The guy went to touch it and Chris said don't you think we need to turn of the electricity? The guy was like yeah good idea, So no electrocution there. Then the guy undid one of the hoses and went to drain it through a pipe. Well that wasn't working .Next he blew Nitrous into the pipe forgetting that he had undid the top pipe.When he did that all of the water started shooting out like a geyser flooding my laundry room and hallway. As I mentioned above Chris and Jean are on their way. You know me I have to have my house extra clean when I have company over. I was just shacking my head. It's so funny I could cry.My house is somewhat back to normal and as clean as it's going to get.
Then I have a certain neighbor that at first used to be my friend until all of the stuff that happened. You all know the one. Anyway there was a dead squirrel on the road near our house. Jens husband had accidental ran over it. At midnight when Chris got home it was still there. At 4:30 ish it wasn't.Abram went jogging around that time. Long story short he thought Chris took care of it and we thought vise versa. About noon I went outside to get something and discovered the dead squirrel thrown under my window covered up by grass. I can't prove that she did it but I can't think of anyone else who would do it. I am so mad about it. Chris went and confronted her about it. She didn't deny that she hadn't done it and told him sorry,after he told her whoever had done it is like a threat. She left shortly after he confronted her.He didn't accuse her of anything but the guilt was all over her face.
What is up with my neighborhood. I know it's petty but it just gets under my skin.What do you think about it???
