Good morning! It is a gorgeous morning! And I know, because I've already been out! LOL! We're "baby-sitting" our grand-dog. I was up way too early for a Saturday to take her out ... but oh! how lovely it was out there. Clear and cool, everything green and sparkling. I think it's going into the 90s today (and nearer 100 the next few days); and probably no storms. Since I was up anyway, besides taking Sugar out, I have done dishes and laundry. I decided it wasn't a very good idea to clean the kitchen floor (Sugar is a Big boxer!! LOL!!).
Last night was not very productive again. I was conserving my energy for today. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! LOL! Today I hope to get caught up on all the scheduled cleaning projects. I want tomorrow to catch up more fun stuff, and next weekend off! We'll see how well I stick to my "plan" with a big dog underfoot! :)
Today is "The Date to Created" ... "Happiness Happens" ... "National Garage Sale Day" ... "Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbors' Porch Night" ... "Farmers Day (Tanzania)".
