5/12/2025, Ate breakfast and read my Bible on the deck, Unpacked camper, when it was 82 degrees out I came in and caught up on my 3 blogs, went to Melissa’s to pick up Brooks shoes, used my new cart for garden work and loved it!

Jack, silly Evan, and Hailey...Evan has new shoes on, Hailey has new shoes on and I stopped to pick my new shoes up.  Hailey and Melissa found us all great deals.  My Brooks they found were only $5.  They are like new and are so comfy.  In the store they are around $165.

I love spring time when everything is coming back...and everything is so green out

My new Brooks Shoes

The deck looks beautiful today

I loved using my new smart cart.  It makes the job so much easier.  I got all but the far little section done today.  My new tool I got at the garage sale worked great loosening the dirt.  My handy dandy shovel from the kids always works great and is so easy to use.  

Beautiful sunset tonight

It was warm early in the morning, so I drank my coffee, ate my breakfast and then read my Bible out on the deck.  Kit Kat joined me and was a good kitty and a very happy kitty to have company outside.  I unpacked the camper after that.  I took all of my clothes baskets out with me and loaded them all up.  I put them in my car and drove up to the house which is so much easier than trying to carry everything out there.  Bill started mowing the grass.  He got all of his stuff out of the camper yesterday.  

It was getting hot and I looked and saw it was 82 degrees.  I decided to come in have, lunch, then I worked on catching up on my three blogs.  Melissa called me and said Hailey told her she had to let me know about the great shoes they found in my size.  They are Brooks and are like new and only $5.  I was so thankful Hailey thought of me.  She knows her Nana well.  I told her to let me know when they were home.  I finished my blogs, yay.  Melissa called and said they were home.  I told her I would bring the watermelon Hailey brought yesterday to their house.  Bill hurried and got a bowl when he heard that.  She had one big container of cut up watermelon and another of watermelon slices.  She always brings something good when we have family gatherings.  Kimmy called me and told me about a house for sale near them.  She sent me a link so I could look at it.  I sent it to Bill.  I would love to live by Kimmy, but I also love living by Melissa and Vikki.  Plus our church is only a few miles away, the VA is only a little ways away, we are in an amazing location where everything is handy.  It sure is a cute house though.  I teased Jack and Evan and showed them the house we were moving into.  They looked sad while looking at the pictures.  I could see relief in their eyes when I told them we weren’t moving.  They are pretty used to Nana and Papa’s house and having us close.  I love my shoes.  They are so cute and so comfy.

I came home and the temperature was just right for me to work outside.  I weeded and loosened the soil in my flower garden.  I planted Zinnia seeds I got from Kimmy’s Zinnias she gave me last year.  Hope they come up and look as beautiful as they did last year.   Just have a tiny area in the garden on one end to do tomorrow.

I pulled weeds around the deck by the shed and around the house too.  When I came in I was ready to rest.  I decided to take my shower first and then I rested.  Got lots done today.
