Cleaning the Patio
I have a big job on my hands this Blue Monday!
It's time to pay the piper and get the
yard and patio
straightened up.
I had a paint can sitting on the table that had rusted, it sat there so long after I
painted my old shed. So out it went..finally! It's such a simple thing but it was a hike
to the back of the yard and I haven't felt like doing much of anything this year.
I then gathered the two loungers that have been in the yard, I bought new cushions for them last week and they are still in the trunk of the car, I have one scrubbed down and looking perfect and will be working on the next one this afternoon.
The reason for all this industry in the middle of the hottest month of the year?
I have company possibly on the way.
My daughter and her family were coming down
from North Carolina but my son in law's service dog has been deathly ill and is just out
of the veterinarian hospital. He may not be well enough to travel.
But in case, I want to be ready! So I'm braving the humidity and
putting everything back in order and removing the layer of
dust that has settled. Once the weather is nicer I will want to spend more time out on the patio.
It's always fun to get snail mail and a big thank you to my friend Diane at
for the kind words.
Now, this week
I'm looking for a table top hibachi, I hope they still make them. .

I really like your blue chair up against that brightly colored shed. I hope the dog gets well. Thanks for playing today.
Happy Blue Monday!

I have seen habachis recently. But where I am not sure. Good luck finding one! Have a great week.
Thank you for posting the card :) One thing I realized though, our post office is somehow deceiving me. I think she overcharged me this time. I instructed her that I wanted stamps. She replied yes and told me that she'll be the one who will stick on the stamps. I was surprised she charged me Php 40 but some would just charge me Php 13 :) Hahaha Regardless, I'm happy that it reached you :)
I too love to get snail mail. A friend and I have recently decided that we will send each other snail mail whenever the opportunity presents itself because we miss seeing that hand addressed envelope surprising us in the mailbox. We only live about 5 miles away from each other but we've found several reasons to put a quick note in the mail!
Have a lovely weekend!
