Falling off the face of the earth...

I swear...as some people have asked
I have not fallen off the face of the earth!
I just needed to fix some things...
myself..our house...our garden....
you know stuff!

I joined a gym...
the scale and I came to an impasse...
it said I was way over my limit
I told it that it was full of lies...
unfortunately the scale was right..
so the gym is where I have spent
 most of my time for over a month now

The children needed reeling in...homework
was in a disarray...things were out of line...
so that's where another portion went.

And last but not least...the yard was horrible!
So with Easter coming up....
I was motivated!!!!!

BIG TIME!

So here is the first in a long line
of garden updates...

We cleaned up the glass house...
and added two green shutters
that hold sconces


And sweet husband built me a bench out of
an old headboard and footboard...
just need to add a few pillows


Then he took me antiquing down on Dixie Highway
near Palm Beach and we found this great old rug...


So once the glass house was in order we
moved on...to making a fairy ring
around the oak tree...

here's a sneak peek...

Fairy ring in the making

A quick peek at a portion of the fairy ring...


Will show you the rest next time!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend...

If that's what happens when you fall off the face of the earth, than I wanna fall too! Now just tell me, who wrote my name on the chalk board?
