Old Business:
- Layout #7 still on desk (it's been hard to create, desk has been very messy!)
- June cards need to be picked, made and sent out
- Living room paint is FINALLY done! Took 3 coats on both the door and the mantle, walls took 2 coats. There is a bit of touch up that needs done on the mantle & vents from putting everything back together, but I think it will be OK. 012 was able to help in the 11th hour to get it done. Furniture has been moved back, Knick knacks/decorations have been sorted, some dusting and putting out of decorations has occurred as well. 4 pictures have been hung on the walls. It is slow progress, but it IS progress.
- Was able to get over to the old house (thank you Dylan!!!) and I got a whole carload of flowers to plant here. I'm hoping they all make it OK!
- With the boys being out of school, 015 has been working at the cemetery with Dad, that has been really cool. It is an official job with a paycheck, so I think that will be very good for him! 012 has been my assistant at church, and at home. That has been wonderful too. Altogether, we have planted: a magnolia tree, 2 dogwood trees, a pussy willow, about 6 lilacs (I think 3 will make it) countless lamb's ears, daylilies, iris, sedum, phlox, hostas, peonies, and a couple that I don't remember the name of. I decided I can't let the clippings just pile up (turns it into manure - not a bad thing, but not fun to spread!) so we've been spreading them out as we make them. That has slowed down since the rains have slowed down, but that is OK, it is still progress every little bit we get done. We finished the plantings last Thursday, and even got clippings spread out front. I'm hoping that as the plants grow and mature, they will grow together well and we will need less ground cover. I can't wait to watch it all mature!!!
- Second nursing home day went well. Appointments at the salon have slowed down, but I've been trying to drum up some new business by running some specials.
