FFYF: Oozing Over the Finish Line Edition

Amy LeForge — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 12:07:52 +0000

Good Friday, Heroes! Today we are celebrating Fun For Your Friday, a blog carnival that’s been hosted at Earnest Parenting for many months. This month I’m having fun knowing that almost all of the yardwork is done. Before snow! Who would have expected that?? This week the boys helped me spread a yard of topsoil in a flowerbed, then I topped that off with 3 yards of mulch. Grand total for the summer: 19 yards of mulch, 1 yard of topsoil, at least 4 yards of peastone, and I have no idea how many yards of packing sand. But it’s almost finished, yay!

Next, we start working on the indoor tasks. I didn’t call it the Jaw Dropping Todo List for nothing.

Fun, right?

Don’t answer that.
