What a world, what a world...

I know all of you have wondered what the heck I've been doing, since I have obviously not been blogging.

Well, gather round the kitchen table (it seats five, that should be plenty) and I'll let you in on what my life has been like since my last blog.

It's got more stuff than you'll find anywhere outside of a soap opera. Some of you men will say it's pay back for my last blog, but Husband still loves me, so there.

First, there was a two day killer attempt to find a "new" car for our household. Daughter has a job now (gasp) and we are in dire need of one more vehicle. She'll be paying this time, which is kinda nice.

Then there was our ladies church meeting, which I barely remember I was so tired.

Then, there was THE BEANS.  Them beans was without a doubt, the sorriest beans that ever beaned. Mother took some, her friend took some (she threatened to throw them in the creek) and we took the rest. I was worried about canning them, but turns out they were so tough it wasn't an issue. After ditching many of them, we had enough left for about three big messes. And this time, it really was a mess.

After the beans, there was Sunday, and I ain't got time to blog on Sunday. I'm too busy restin'. And going to church to teach and be taught. And visiting Mother.

Yesterday morning was a hair appointment. By the time I got home, ate, and began a short rest, our electricity went out. This was yesterday at 3:45 p.m. It came back on today at 4:15 p.m.  That's right, ladies and gentlemen 24 and one half hours without air conditioning. We  have a generator, which gives us the refrigerator, lights in the kitchen and two outlets, and it also runs our water pump. So we can survive. But who wants to without air conditioning in Georgia in August, pray tell?

I am trying to recover, but I swan, I nearly had a case of the vapors.

Maybe I'll feel better when the pizza gets here.
