Field Notes- Monday, September 18th. a Very wet Rainy Day.


 So, finally I get into my blog account.  It's been a real CHORE today.

My flowers (from my sister in law and I think my brother also) are very very beautiful.  Very NOT FLORIST looking.  Wild and just picked looking.  Lovely.

I snagged two slices of cheesecake for dessert.

Long call from our Son in California......we made some decisions.  Some really wonderful and some really hard ones....I cried a bit.  Moving van will arrive ...here.  

I am going to ask daughter if she wants a paying gig of organizing the Attic Storage area and moving things and sticking labels on everything.  So we can find what we put away.  We'll empty the the sewing room.  Try and find the guys who did the floors.....get then up there to do a bathroom and the floors.

And do the kitchen floors and we will choose a new stove together.

The BEST EVER BIRTHDAY GIFT.  My boy is coming home.

So......I might take a nap.

Happy Birthday Joanne, your flowers sound lovely wild and just picked just right.
Wonderful news on your son coming home. Mine came to stay for a month to help me out and that was twenty years ago. You and he will not be sorry.

Happy Birthday Joanne! How lovely to receive gifts of beautiful flowers and a son coming home. :)
I moved 500 miles in June to be near my 88 yr old mom mother, after living away for 35 years.
Very glad I made that choice.

Post a photo of the flowers if you can!
