Well, today was busy for me.  I had to take Joe into Ashtabula for his doctor appointment, oh and my truck is finally fixed!!  So, I was able to take my own car!  Last night, Dave came out and fixed it all up!  The doctor was running an hour behind, then we went to Wal*Mart then Save-a-Lot.

Finally made it home at noon, got something to eat and finished up an order of blog posts.  I then went out and weeded the garden for 1 1/2 hours.  I was tuckered out, so I quit.  It still needs LOTS of help!  I also ran the weed whacker and got all the tall weeds the mower can’t get to.   Makes the place look a LOT better!!

But, it started to not want to run so I checked the filter and cleaned it out and then checked the oil and it was a little low so I put some it.  Of course I forgot to put the lid back on and started it up.  I got showered with oil!  LOVELY!!  SIGH!  I felt really stupid on that one.  I hope it comes out of my clothes but I’m not holding my breath.  The machine ran much better though once I got the lid back on, LOL!

We have the Amish cutting in our woods and we are keeping their horses in the back yard!  Cool to have some horses out there!  My backyard has PLENTY of weeds, LOL!!

My sister and her husband and 2 girls stayed with us on the 5th and 6th.  Chris was nice enough to fix my mower and then Becky mowed my yard!! It was so nice!  While Becky was mowing her youngest, Melia who is 5, helped me weed my garden for a while!  LOL!! She is quiet the little worker!

Here is Chris fixing my drive belt.
