What you say...

Life is a great big canvas and you should throw
all the paint on it you can.

Wood Chips. Wood Chips. Wood Chips.

Working in the yard, believe it or not, brings me peace. We have a large yard and it is more beautiful every year with all our hard work put in it. Especially in Spring when everything is green, fresh and budding. We get many compliments how beautiful our yard is and that brings us joy that others see all that dedication to it.

However, my body does not always agree with my peace with yard work. It became evident yesterday pulling weeds, trimming overgrown plants, pulling weeds, moving and raking wood chips, pulling more weeds, moving more wood chips, pulling weeds, pulling weeds, pulling weeds. Today my body hates me. I am so sore and tired that there will be NO yard work. I will probably do something just to get a little taste of that peace but the majority of this day will be laying low to re-coop.

It feels like a paint nails and Nook day on the patio to enjoy all the hard work.

Holy Mary Moses... has it been 3 years? What happened? Where did it go? 


It's time to resurrect something that was current but fell to the wayside quickly and once again peek into life's craziness here at the Leto's. There is no explanation for my disconnect other than the normal fodder. In the perspective of things, it really isn't a big deal however I missed posting random thoughts, activities and general nonsense. Three years later, things have changed, kids have grown, loved ones lost, abnormal is still normal, wrinkles more pronounced and I am unfortunately still addicted to Jelly beans. Life is precious and daily reminders become more evident as we grow older. They even sometimes smack us in the face or plainly just beat us down but my family is a constant foundation and I love that. I believe now is the time to carry on so hang on...
