The day dawned dark and dreary. Rain was forecast and by the time Hubby and I finished our breakfasts, the rain had started to fall. Hubby was out tending his apple trees in the rain, while I took our laundry down to the laundry room in the basement and sorted it all out.
As I was looking around the laundry room I noted that the winter had not been kind to it, and I needed to spend some time cleaning it up and organizing it once again. While I spoke to my sister on my cell phone, I cleaned and put things away and got the room actually looking presentable.
Then while the machines whirred and groaned cleaning and drying my clothes, I came upstairs and worked on vacuuming. One thing is for sure, when you own 4 dogs, and both you and your Hubby garden and work in the yard, there is no end to the dirt that gets tracked into the house! It used to bother me, but now, well if I can vacuum a couple of times a week, then I feel I have done well.
The rain continued as the afternoon wore on and before we knew it the kids arrived here after school. Hubby worked with the twins on their reading and I helped Em get her eye drops in.
One thing that I have to share with you all is something about Greta. Today I was patting her belly and I could feel a nice round little package in there. It is so totally different than it feels when she is not pregnant, so I am hoping that perhaps I have felt the babies before anyone else. Just two more days and we will find out!
sounds promising…the pup tum tum!!!
I do hope that she is ‘with child(ren)…
Oh, and as for having dogs and gardening all the time, boy do I hear you… Although we only have the one dog, our medium haird kitty MORE than makes up for it! My only problem is that I am somewhat critical of how/when the lawns get done. And if L does not do them to how I think they should, I then go out and re-do them! 🙂
Organising the Laundry must have been fun, ours is now so nice and clean. We even have the bathroom finished, new post up with pics!
Oooo! Can’t wait till we find out the big news!
You really make me laugh with your hopes for Greta’s pregnancy ! You make me think of a king who expects a crown prince to assure his dinasty ! lol ! Wait ! the day Greta asks for strawberries you can be sure !!
