Fun in the Sun

Anyone's life truly lived consists of work, sunshine, exercise, soap, plenty of fresh air, and a happy contented spirit. -

Since we knew it was going to be an icky day today (rainy... blech), DD made the most of yesterday and will do her school today (one of the bennies of homeschooling!!).

Here's how she spent her day. Drawing chalk pictures of Dakota:

And riding her scooter up and down the road with the dog (usually shouting 'WAHOOOOOOO' at the top of her lungs):


I worked on the computer, cut down my dead hydrangeas and garden phlox and then, since DH was up helping his uncle do something at his uncle's property up north, and I knew it was going to rain today, I split wood.

Yes I did.

I have to admit that it's more than frustrating to have to take 10 - 15 whacks at a log with the maul before the stupid thing splits, when DH does it in 2 - 3, but even so, I did make a pile of chopped, split stuff.

I told DH what I'd done when he got home, and that I knew I'd only done ten logs or so -- but he said, "That's ten logs I don't have to do." Of course, then he went out and finished up the pile, whack, whack, whack.

Sunday, we'll be hitting the neighbor's wood pile. I'd like to say that today is a day of rest, but DD will be doing school and I will be building next week's LASR/WC website pages.

And, I might back some garlic herb bread, because it sounds good -- and baking is always a good choice on a rainy fall day.

What are your plans?

======================

You Are North

Like a Viking, you are assertive, decisive, and dominant. You seek power and destroy those in your way. People admire that you are so confident and independent. You seem to have the world figured out. Sometimes you come across as pushy and aggressive... not that you mind! You like being seen as tough. You make a fairly good leader, especially in times that require grit and ruthlessness. You are a warrior.

Are You North, South, East, or West?

Next stop... world domination. MUHAHAHAHAHAHA....
