and now it's the weekend. Today I did my usual, but in the morning filled out invitations for a big SEND OFF TO COLLEGE party for our Russell before heading on down to Wegmans. Emily had to work, so I was on my own. Today, I tried buying some DIFFERENT foods than I normally do each week. I'm not sure if I did or not - but I am trying to be more creative. I also picked up a packet of nasturtium seeds to fill in for my ailing marigolds. You see it won't stop raining in NJ and my marigolds which are normally such a hardy plant are mostly withered away. Instead of plunking more money down on plants, I just stuck in nasturtium seeds which grow really fast and the deer won't touch! The deer are on the street at all times of the day - and I just don't know how to protect my plants! Therefore I have my tomatoes in containers up on my deck. 1 tomato plant is growing faster than the other - and they look to be producing a ton of tomatoes! YEAH! I LOVE TOMATOES!
Gary and Russell are playing a double header of baseball - and Emily is working - so I'm home alone gardening and now cooking. Poor Em - her manager is a real jerk - never makes the life guarding schedule properly and our Emily is left life guarding for 9 hours straight which is just not good nor right! Emily opened up her mouth - this is the 3rd time it has happened and they are paying her double time. But now I must pick her up, feed her and she is going to her regular Saturday night baby sitting job. Well 1 thing for sure, Emily is earning a lot of money this summer. She has already earned in 1 month what she earned all last summer - and she is only 2streets away and her MOM makes and brings her lunch daily! HOW BAD THAT CAN BE?
I'm exactly 1/2 way through making the swatch cards for the FALL 2009 TIE SELLING SEASON! YIPPEE! We planned to get our line ready long before the shows start and it looks like it is happening.
Happy Saturday to you all --
Best,
Jane M
