The sun is shinning and the river is down. Oh what a wonderful day it is today. Now it is time for me to get out of my chair and go to the garden. No more relaxing, no more MyLotting, and no more staying in the house freezing. The sun is out and I know the garden is a mess. I must go there now to clean and do some work. So until later on or this evening have a wonderful day. Enjoy your time, weather, and most of all have fun. See you all soon. What are your plans for today?

Today it is so smoky from forest fires here it is best to stay inside. The smoke is almost as thick as fog.

@poehere I do too, but for the most part they probably won't be out until it snows.

I have done some housework and laundry. Waiting now for my granddaughter to wake from her nap. She has been sleeping for almost 2 hours so she should wake at anytime now. Hubby is snoozing on the couch too.

Sounds like you have been busy. It is good when the little ones nap. You can accomplish so much during this time. Sounds like hubby is enjoying the quiet and taking a nap of his own.

That sounds interesting. I love being outside and it was nice to be out again after being stuck at home for a week because of bad weather.

@Blondie2222 We are heading into our summer months here and soon it will be very humid. So for now the weather is great with lots of sunshine and blue skies.

What a wonderful garden. I would even enjoy working there. I really don't remember what I was doing that day. I hope you got your gardening all done.

@velvet53 Thank you so much. My best friend, her sister and her mom and dad want to go there Tuesday to help me. Wow, that is wonderful. Considering my family here only wants the food I grow there and they are not willing to life a finger to help. I do it alone and normally the garden is always clean. But a week of rain and not being there the weeds grow too fast. .

That is so funny. This garden is so large it takes a long time to get it cleaned up again. After a rain storm like we had I have weeds popping up everywhere. It takes a lot of time to get them out of the food and the walkways. I have part of it done and a lot more to go.

It is good to be lazy now and then. We all have to have a lazy day to relax and do nothing. I hope that your writer block is resolved soon.

I needed to go there after 7 days of rain. I had a lot to clean up, pick, and pull weeds. I will be pulling weeds for about a week after this storm. Normally, I don't have a lot, but with the wind and rain I have too many now.

I love being there. It is at the foot of the mountain and the river runs in front of it. When it is too hot it is so nice to go swimming in the river.

@HazySue I do love it here and I have worked in so many places. But when I came here 25 years ago I knew the first day I would never leave here again. I finally found my home. Sounds strange. I found so many places in Mexico that I wanted to live, but in the end once I left I didn't care to go back. Here was different. I came here for 2 weeks to get things ready and see the work. I had to go back to the US to pick up supplies and stuff I needed. I was back there around 2 months. All I could think about was here on the islands, how I wanted to go back. I knew then I would make this place my final home and this is where I really wanted to live.

It is a lazy day for me haha I have been working on so much stuff, I just want to casually be on my computer. Even though, I am still technically working since I am working on drawings.

Good for you to take a day to relax and work on your computer. When we are so busy all the time we need one day to just chill. Glad you decided this was the day for you. Enjoy your quiet day and hope you can finish up some of your drawings.

@poehere Haha, well I was still kind of working because all I do is work on my computer. Drawing is still working for me. Oh well! I am always a busy bee.

Thank you so much. This picture was taken when we just started to clean the land and plant. We have enlarged the garden so much and there is a lot more to clean weed wise now. Takes a long time to clean all the weeds out of there.

@Christinb This is a large and I mean large organic garden and it is a lot of work. You have to be there daily to water and take care of all the different plants in this garden. It is not like a small home garden where we can let it go for a few days and then come and clean it up quickly. It is nice to have this garden, but at the same time it is a lot of work to keep it up and looking nice.

@poehere I like gardening too

Off in the distance which isn't too far from the garden they are building 56 units of apartment or condo like home for the poor. These are low income housing and nobody that lives here is too happy about this.
