The Weekend..

Friday the kids were out of school. We ran errands and did some housework. Once done NW opened the linen closet door and found Jack the Cat hiding. You just got to love the big boy.


Saturday had us busy with Senior umpiring the first little league game, and then our game followed. .. We had it won in the 4th inning, but certain kids (not mine) decided to give up. And then there was the poor officiating. I hate this league, because they make the coaches of the other teams umpire..most have no clue. 
Last night, we decided to burn the remaining wood we had in the pit...the evening was nice, and the full moon was rising. Made for a very relaxing time.



This morning is bright and sunny, but windy. Rain is in the forecast later tonight and all day tomorrow. A real soaker. My Kitchen is a mess-one child wanted french toast, the other was happy with a bowl of cereal. It is funny how brothers can be so much alike, but also so very different.

My radishes are growing. But nothing from my carrots. It has been over a month and only two or three have sprouted. So, I think I am going to get some tomato plants or bush cucumbers.  Not sure which yet. ND loves tomatoes, but so does the mockingbirds.. And then there is Libby, who thinks the little round things growing on the plant is a  tennis ball. *SIGH*

Friday I picked up a slab of ribs, and last night smothered them in olive oil and seasonings...soon Senior will have the smoker going, and the glorious smell of hickory wood and pork will consume the back yard and neighborhood.
I am off here now, to possibly head out the door for some cheap cat food and veggie plants, we are having a stray cat problem and setting a trap tonight.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend and have a very blessed Sunday....

The Bible Miniseries.....

History channel has done it again. They have brought History back to life with the new 10 hour mini series
"The Bible"   It premieres tonight at 8pm est  On (of course) The History Channel.
I really am excited about this series and plan to record it, so the boys can watch it as well...
 So if your TV provider offers this channel I hope you all take time out, and watch it. From watching the trailer the effects look amazing and it seems very well directed and produced.

Our weather here is nasty, cold dreary, and windy. I will make this post short as I am being plagued by a headache..this wind is a killer and currently it is killing my head. My Senior is smoking ribs for dinner- for his labor I made him a big breakfast of bacon, eggs and grits. And with the Ribs I am making his favorite: Macaroni and Cheese. I might even throw in some walnut brownies for dessert.
The forecasters said the wind would not be as bad as yesterday..but what do they know?  Nothing!
I can deal with cold weather, I can deal with cloudy skies..but this wind..it needs to stop...

It is a good day here to stay indoors as much as possible, be a couch potato and watch a movie or work on crafts....
Even our two puppies agree:



Have a Blessed and Warm Sunday Everyone!
