Grateful April 9

With everything going on with the Corona virus and being in lock down, I thought we could all use a reminder that we are lucky to have all that we do. So I am going to post something I am grateful for everyday while this goes on. I hope you will all join in with me. There is always bad out in the world. Lets shine a light on the good. Stay healthy everyone.

 Today I am grateful for my computer and the internet. It is pouring rain outside so there will be no gardening and no walks. So I will be on the computer today a lot. I get to talk to internet friends that have similar interests as me. I get to send my parents pictures because they don't have smartphones. I get to look up new recipes for YD and I to try out. I get to watch cute videos of animals instead of having to watch the news. 

 What are you grateful for today?

    I am so VERY thankful that I made it through a horrible storm last night. My friends and family are well too. Had probably the scariest storm that I remember for ages. Much damage done in places not too far away. I am thankful that we are all safe and still have a roof over our heads.

      It has been pouring rain all day with bad winds. Nasty! Glad you are safe. Hoping power doesn't go out here. We have the generator but most people don't.

    Today I am grateful for leftovers. I have enough to warm up for quick lunches through Sunday.

    I'm grateful for my laptop and internet too because I've been able to keep in touch with friends and family. It helps feed my soul and helps keep me mentally healthy.

First Garden Harvest 2020

I hope everyone is healthy and doing alright with our new normal. When the weather permits I have been out side working on the gardens. My kale never died the winter because it was so mild. It recently started growing again.  I was able to pick a nice bunch this morning. I will be incorporating it into our meals this week. YD loves smoothies and always tosses some kale in. The gardening season has finally begin! Have you harvested anything from your garden yet this year?

Dirt

At 7 am Saturday morning a truck came and dropped of 8 yards of topsoil. Then Hubby, the kids and I got to work. It was a beautiful day out, sunny and 60 degrees. Perfect for hard labor. We have a wheel barrel and a garden wagon that can dump. 4 shovels in hand and off we went.  We had several trees taken down a few years ago. Then 2 years ago we had the driveway done. Last year we had the siding on the house done. Time to fix the lawn. We have lots of dips in the front and back yard from all of the work. I am a little clumsy and have fallen several times in them. We were able to level out the front yard and fill in the holes in the back yard. The back yard has a large hill so it will never be level but it is more of a gentle slope now. Some places didn't get dirt because they didn't need it.  We ordered pizza since I was too tired to cook. After dinner Hubby spread grass seed everywhere. Today it is raining lightly.  It was hard work but we got it done and h
