Hello Darling Ooos!
Please don't hate me today because I feel like I have PMS. Crabby, achy, and mentally itchy. Do you ever feel like your brain is scratchy? Like there is a clothing tag, rubbing away at your brain? YKWIM?
There's no reason why I feel like this, I just am. I think it's simply low-level stress and anxiety getting to me.

Sums it up pretty well, dontcha think?LOL!!)
My knee was only hurting a little bit after I cleaned for my friend. I did some weeding in the backyard after lunch. That was the first time in weeks and everything is so overgrown. It looks a lot better now and hopefully tomorrow I can get to the front yard. My tiger lilies are more brown than green and need to be thinned a little and get all of the scraggly pieces out. It looks like my milkweed is getting seed pods this year, yipppeee! I started them from a seed pod, but they didn't produce any since they grew, only spreading through the roots. If I get pods, I can plant them on the side of the yard. Next year I'll move the ones in the front of the garden and not worry if I kill them. They are >6' tall at this point and crowding the coneflowers that are behind them.
I saw a gorgeous yellow and black butterfly on them yesterday but it flew off before I could snap a photo. I think it was a swallowtail, I saw them a lot last year but I didn't notice the blue dots on the wings on this one.
I have the dress fitting today at 12.30 with my mom. I was going to try to get to the food pantry before I went down but she reminded me that the parking in the center of her town is awful on the weekend. I might have been able to make it in time but decided it was going to be too stressful to rush around like that. Since I have a little extra time, I might hit DSW at the mall on the way to pick my mom up. If I leave an hour earlier, I should have plenty of time to get to the mall, check out some shoes, and then grab her and my dress to get to the shop on time. I swear, I would much rather be hanging out in my messy gardens.
On that note, may you all have a wonderful and stress-free weekend!

when Ona yells at us for not being productive Cheery O's Hahaha! ( I know she would never yell at us but still 
)
AK subsistence style fishing, not a rod n reel. Its my favorite way to fish and the only time I can catch more then my hubby. Yes its cause he has to drive the boat and not fish but I still take the win.
. I started on a layout yesterday, but I am really struggling with it and might have to start all over again. Not sure where my mojo has gone, but if you see it would you send it back to me please?? MIL gave me a whole mess of old music magazines yesterday, so many cool old advertisement's in the them and the pages are all discoloured, perfect for junk journaling they are from the 1940's but there are too many of them for me to keep them all. So I am dropping off half of them to my hairdresser this morning. Her mother is really into junk journaling so I thought she might like to have them. My hairdresser said she would be thrilled and thanked me very much! Nice to share and not see them go in the recycle bin. Anyway my Gary is ready to go, so I will try to pop in later on this weekend. Hope you all have a wonderful Saturday!!
