Well as predicted my weekend was not as I would have wanted it! I was very ambitious and I did get some things accomplished but my yard does not look like I had envisioned and my house is still less than perfect! I did get me living room and kitchen clean but the bedrooms are a wreck and the bathrooms are not that far behind!
My wonderful neighbor (go Chad!!) came over to play with his chainsaw and took out a few of my trees so now I can see the kids on the trampoline! now if I could just get rid of that huge mess maker of an apricot tree my yard would be almost perfect! I need to get the weeds under control and the dead spots in the lawn green again before the 4th of July since I am having the bbq at my place this year! Makes sense for me to have it really since I am located in the best spot for all the fun!
Yes I did read a book and it was not anything to write about! Neither was the movie I watched! I had a Netflix that I decided to watch Friday night and it left me so confused that I am kinda pissed off! The movie was The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone. It is based on a short story by Tennessee Williams about an aging widow who is "drifting" in Rome and takes up with a young gigalo. She is in denial about what her relationship with him is really about. the movie was great right up to the end and then I was lost and it didn't make sense to me and so I googled it to read other people's reviews in hopes of figuring out the meaning behind on of the characters in the movie and that got me nowhere! Hopefully my next movie will not leave me so unsatisfied!
I bought a new ice cream maker a few weeks ago. One of those cool ones that you don't need to use salt and ice with you just freeze the canister instead! Anyways we made ice cream like crazy all weekend! We started with a simple vanilla that the kids ate so fast I am sure they all had brain freeze! Next we made a strawberry that was so heavenly that i was glad whent hey ate it so fast so I couldn't! I am not a big fan of strawberry ice cream but this was so dang good! Finally yesterday Derek and I experimented with a chocolate and this one did not turn out right. Let me rephrase that! It didn't turn out right for me! Derek ate the whole thing since it had the taste and consistensy of a Wendy's Frosty! He wants me to make that one again! I think next will be a blueberry or a raspberry though! yum!!
Ok I am done with the rambling for today! Guess I will get some work done now!
