Well, like Brandi said I did get my spring cleaning done just in time for her to get through with school. We had one month to get the yard sale done, get her some new couches, and get her house in shape before she started school June l. The yard sale went great and she made enough for a new couch and a chair. So, we got rid of a lot of unwanted items, cleaned out her garage and made some money at it. We even sold a bunch of Happy Homemaker starter kits and apron sets.
She has wanted to paint her house ever since she moved in so her Dad (who is an old house painter) and I offered to paint it for an early birthday present. We had it all done in a week with all of us working at the same time. It looks great! I know she is thrilled with it
I got my garden in and we planted a lot of peppers this year, Brandi and I came across a recipe for pickled peppers last year that is to die for. So, needless to say we are going to do a bunch of them this year. We’ve had a wonderful spring for the southwest. It’s been cooler than usual and we’ve had a lot more rain. It’s even cloudy with a chance of rain today and it’s the middle of June. We can’t believe it. We have some fun summer trips in the works and it will be nice to get away for a while. .
