How to fill a planter

You may have noticed that I love flowers.

Yea, just a little.

I love planter pots out on the porch, but they can be so expensive.

They usually start at about $30 and go up from there.

Yowza!

This year I filled mine myself

And it cost about $16 to fill 3 of them.

Mothering - Fingerprints, swallowing pride and other stuff that tastes bad.

There was a time when this would have really frustrated me.

Easy to Make Shoulder Bag DIY

This bag is super easy to make.

If you have basic sewing skills you should do fine with this project.

Chickens and Other Stuff

Sorry I haven't been around a whole lot lately.

My husband started a new shift at work and it is really throwing off my daily schedule.

It's good because he is home more now.

For me that means more help with the kids and the house.

But for you that means,

I am being a wife and mother more and not so much a blogger.

I used to write posts in the evening after the kids were in bed.

My husband was gone at work, but he came home at about 11:00 each evening.

So I had a few hours of down time after the kids were asleep and before my man got home.

Now he he is home more evenings and when he is at work he will be there all night.

So I have no reason to stay up late and I go to bed early.

Yay! Sleep!

Have I bored you enough yet?

You may notice that when I ramble I am mostly rambling for my own benefit.

It helps me when I think out loud, or when I think in print.

So right now I am trying to figure out the best time to write

with our new schedule.

Tuesday afternoons have just been voted out because

the hubs has just come down the stairs and suggested we go to lunch.

This may have to become a regular thing.

But since I am here anyway I will finish this post before we go.

The Easter Bunny brought us something really fun.

Baby chicks!

Herbs in my Window

I love fresh herbs.

But it is still too cold to grow them outside here.

I'm terrified of frost.

Easter

Easter is one of my favorite times of year.

I love celebrating spring. I'm not really a cold weather person,

so I get really excited when my bulbs start coming up.

I love tulips.

This was taken at the tulip festival a few years ago.

Gallery Wall

Posting has been slow lately.

Mostly because I am working on very few smaller projects.

Everything is a big project that takes time.

But I will show you the progress I have made on one project.
