Where oh where has my little brain gone?

Let's start with last week. It was Tuesday when I got the call. I was spending the day with A and C playing in my parents' yard and doing yard work for the bridezilla wedding.
"Yes?" I answered.
"Hey, Baby. I'm either on my way to Occupational or the hospital. I think I broke my ankle." K said.

Great! I threw the bambinos in the truck and took off for the park to meet bridezilla and have her watch them while I went to the ER to wait for K. It took him a long time to get there from the other east side of the state. Thankfully his ankle was just badly sprained. We were all surprised that it wasn't broken. It was UGLY! So off we went with K on crutches and not able to put any weight on his ankle.

Thursday was better. We picked S up from school and took off to Monica's for her hair cut. She cut 10.5" off! We put it in a ponytail and mailed it off with love to locksoflove.org. She saw the pictures on the website the week before and decided she needed to do it.
"My hair really is pretty. I think I should cut it off so someone can make a wig out of it. If I lost my hair, I'd be really happy to get a wig."

Way to go S! My hat is off to you! I'm so proud of you!

I'll update with pictures soon. I'm hoping to be able to upload today.

I've started millions of new projects these past weeks too. I don't have R anymore, so I have so much free time. I've been doing yard work, yard work and even more yard work. I'm making my tiny beds in the front of the house wrap around the house and replanting the hills in the front. I'm also digging out our old foundation in the back of the house. It was a garage about 75 years ago, but now it's just the foundation. It's covered in weeds and dirt, but about 6" down is concrete! K's truck is never going to get stuck in the mud again! Yay!

I've also started on my parent's anniversary present. I found this old beat up rocking chair on the side of the road. I'm scraping all the paint off of it and then I'm going to fill in the little cracks with wood putty and repaint. K and I are going to paint Japanese Cranes on the back and I'm going to make a cushion. They will be married for 35 years this August. The 35th anniversary is represented by coral, jade and sea theme. My cranes fit in since they do sometimes reside at the sea in Eastern Asia. They are the most rare bird with only about 1500 left in the world. The best part, they mate for life. I can't think of a better tool to represent their years together. I took a before picture, so I'll put it on here too for you (L) to see! It has great shape and will be awesome when we get it done!

P.S. I miss you(L) a lot! I'm hoping to find more time on the computer soon! If not you'll be seeing my area code on the caller ID a lot! :D
