I got up right before 8 am today, which is early for me. I am determined to get things done, but the man side tracked me wanting to get some yard work done. I worked out there about an hour with him cutting up limbs and I moved them over by the burn pile He had the chainsaw up cutting up fallen leaves that have dropped. I had already been out to feed and water the animals, the plants, get the mail, get some stuff out of my car and was ready to sit down for awhile. He is still outside and on the tractor now. I am assuming he is mowing. He said that was another thing he wanted to get done today. I have to run to town before 6 pm to return two packages via UPS. We have a pick up at the local drug store which is nice and much better than having to take it all to McComb 30 miles away. I am fixing to get some lunch now that I am cooled off a bit and get with tagging things for the flea market. What are you up to on this Monday? Photo Credit:

Monday was quite busy for me though I went to work a bit later than usual. But the moment I arrived there things got so busy. With two understaff who went on leave, we needed as many people as we could. But grateful that it was quite a busy day. Tuesday morning here now and the weather doesn't seem to look good. It rained last night and we might have some rain again today.

We got some rain today so ours will probably be needing it again by Friday. But it won't happen.

I hate having to return packages, don’t you? I mean, you don’t want to lose money, but it’s still a pain in the rear.

This one is a pain in the rear because they want it returned in original packing. Those plastic envies are not always salvageable. Today's package has a lot of tape holding it together. These were all defective so yes, I want my money back. They offered a partial refund and to keep the items. But no thanks!!

I washed clothes and hung them out to dry. I also worked on my boyfriend's diamond painting. I also was thinking about what to wear this weekend to a festival.

@kareng The diamond painting is of a waterfall in a enchanted forest.

I spent about an hour in the garden on Monday. You'd not know I'd been there!

Oh wow!! Ours could stand some more attention too, but my hubby is just not too interested in the care it needs. I'm not risking doing a lot out there since I got that rash all over that lasted for 4 months last year. No thankies.

@Ronrybs That is how my hubby is. He had to tend the family garden growing up. So he has those thoughts in his head.
