The sun is peaking over the horizon, shining gold. I obviously relish the morning sky.<\/p>\n<p>The Mister headed off on a day trip to the mountains this morning, say a safe driving prayer&#8230;the roads are not great in the mountains today&#8230;ice and snow&#8230;.very scary!<\/p>\n<p>I am planning some &#8220;Family Makeover&#8221; ideas for our family on my 3 days off. We are going to find a helpful, age appropriate community service for the boys to get involved with(of course we will be involved as well). \u00c2\u00a0On the way to school the littlest said,&#8221;We could tell June that if something ever happens to her we could take care of Bunkie&#8221;. I think we will start by checking with Grandma to see if their is anything she wants planted&#8230;the boys are both great at planting flowers and herbs&#8230;then we will check with L.O.L to see if there is anything the boys can do in her yard.<\/p>\n<p>I just got back from the dermatologist&#8230;she injected my bite with an antibiotic\/steroid and gave me an oral antibiotic as well&#8230;.she also suggested that I stay away from shrubs with spiders and nuts&#8230;bummer I really like shrubs with spiders!<\/p>\n<p>Bob and Fred, the fish are still swimming&#8230;a bit sideways due to their dirty water or the vodka I poured in to sterilize their bowls&#8230;.just kidding&#8230;it&#8217;s definitely the filth!! I will add their bowls to my &#8220;To Do&#8221; list today.<\/p>\n<p>I am going to check with Grandma to see if she would like to go to lunch on one of my days off&#8230;tomorrow or Friday; it was so nice to have her over on Easter and the boys are super happy that she is back&#8230;they are planning on spending a lot of time at her house and of course in the coveted pasture. \u00c2\u00a0I hope she is ready.<\/p>\n<p>The mister called to let me know that the roads are icy, boy that&#8217;s a relief&#8230;I think I would prefer not to know. \u00c2\u00a0I&#8217;ll be happy when he is home this afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>One more family makeover plan is &#8220;Pen Pal&#8221; Wednesdays. \u00c2\u00a0I am going to have the boys pick a relative&#8230;Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt, Uncle, or Cousin to write to once \u00c2\u00a0week. Please don&#8217;t get your feelings hurt if they don&#8217;t pick you. \u00c2\u00a0I have a feeling that they will choose &#8220;Uncle Matt&#8221;, my sister Serena&#8217;s husband&#8230;you see he played with them in the &#8220;Jumpy Castle&#8221; at my Mom&#8217;s birthday bash for hours&#8230;literally. So, if you are reading Auntie S, be prepared and please prepare your husband that he will have to write back&#8230;even if it is only one paragraph.<\/p>\n<p>Time to throw the ball and get to work on this house while the children are away&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>God Bless,<\/p>\n<p>LLF<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am off for the next 3 days, so&#8230;&#8230;.spring cleaning and playroom here I come!
