They haven’t got the message!
Fridays are always busy around here, but most days they are not approaching the level of chaos I would consider catastrophic. It’s been raining several days on and off-well more like monsoon sometimes, so the mud levels outside are turning into quagmires. The mud gets tracked in even if everyone remembers to take off their shoes at the door, which thankfully most do. However, I needed to vacuum al that dried dust up and bingo-broken. Dan no sooner fixes that and the dishwasher makes odd noises and completely quits washing with gunky water still inside. Tris dashes in to let us know the barn cat is having her kittens under the bench I just set up in the garden yesterday on my nice clean mulch and so far there are two but she’s still working. I call for Dan who is watching the cat, and return of the husband fixer, part two as he takes it all apart, vacuums it out and repairs whatever widget it needed. Dishes are now washing when blam ! our planned short grocery shopping trip has enlarged to going twenty-five miles to another town where they might have peony baskets-no where in town here has them-and Dan says we need to be looking at affordable replacement dishwashers and we need to pick up the autoharp we’d dropped off for repair a couple weeks back at the music store-the list grows, the length of time available in the day does not, and while we are running full out to get done before sundown, life is approaching really crazy. And it’s clouding up for our fifth rainstorm in five days…
However, before we left I did not want to go until I’d reminded you of next week’s special- a real goodie. We are putting one of our bestsellers in this next week as a 99 cents special just for you! Don’t forget to download your copy!
