Let the insanity begin.....

Well, the official "Our daughter is all ours again on the weekend!" has begun and here I am at my computer at 7:15 pm on a Saturday and my ass has been kicked!

It started with Mom and I getting up and "only" doing the animal and Costco shopping.....but it turned out to be more, MUCH more! She wanted to go to the Farmer's Market at Pioneer Park and I ended up buying a 40+ pound Greenriver Watermelon for my daddy, a HUGE crenshaw melon, raw almonds, cashews, apricots and Jordan Almonds, fresh blackberries and fresh figs and THEN CARRYING THEM BACK TO THE SUV! Oh my god!! Then we did the Petsmart shopping and then the Costco shopping. Left the house at 10:00 am and got back here at 2:30 pm only to unload the entire SUV, which by the way was totally filled, for my daddy to say, "C'mon we are going to LOWES!" So then I ran back out and drove us to Lowe's to buy a NEW FREAKIN' BBQ!!! So that only weighed about 300 pounds and we loaded that into the suv and drove that home. THEN we ate a hurried dinner, went outside, cleaned up all the corn in our garden and tied the cornstalks to decorate our yard for Halloween. THEN we axed out 5 rose bushes in the garden. THEN we went across the street to help our neighbor load a huge and heavy stump into the back of a trailor to be removed. THEN we (actually I with directions from daddy) put the HUGE AND HEAVY BBQ TOGETHER! I am so sore and tired that I can't feel my legs!!! And let's discuss tomorrow....

So, as we were downtown at Pioneer Park, I drive Mom past the Gateway, so she has decided that we are going to the Gateway tomorrow. Oh!!!

Oh, and I completely forgot that we started off by going to Big Lots this morning. Yep, the Halloween decorations are out and I have bought a whole bunch of new stuff. And when were at the neighbors helping move the stump another neighbor came over to make sure that we are decorating for Halloween this year because "God blessed them with moving them so close to a neighbor who makes Halloween special for everybody." Ahhhhhhhhh........
Apparently his kids love the decorated yard and pumpkins we have, so it is good to know that others appreciate the efforts as much as we do. Now only if the Halloween Fairy would just come and decorate for me.....

Pray for me! I am thinking every weekend is going to be a new saga for me.........
