Day 6

So today is my sixth day of working. Sixty glorious hours of my life gone. For fun this week, I've make jam, fed the animals, and dusted. All that will change tonight, but today I'm like....

Planning

 Unfortunately, a lot of very special people won't be able to attend the nuptials in October.
Beth is playing with the idea of using this

and I really like it. Don't know if I can look at it without the appropriate mascara, but I like it.
And then I saw this...

and it just ruined any makeup I had left on my face.

Dumb people

 This for the lady in the drive thru that refuses to give me straws when the only thing I have ordered is a drink. And for the man who asks if I want help with a hundred pounds of horse feed. And the driver that is broke down on Hwy 5 in California but has no idea what town he's near(or what mile marker) but he knows he's on 5.

Garden/house work

That or have aluminum foil that transforms itself into little people to majestically make dinner and clean up. It's not that I would be sleeping while the animals/little foil people worked-I'd be doing laundry (have some socks that have been on a line for two days and 2 baskets that need to be folded and put away which is why I don't have a basket to get those socks). Or else I would be doing something in the garden or with garden produce-need to seriously put some hay around the strawberry plants which need pruning. I still have okra to pick even though I filled a bucket last night. There's okra, beans, zucchini, and squash that needs to be put up yesterday. But I've kept the dust bunnies at bay and think I've convinced the ducks not to use the portch as a toilette. Small victories, but I'll take them.

Jody

Many of you know that Jody's dad has been battling cancer for a while now. His fight is over.  Please say a prayer for his wonderful family.

Pinterest-just stop it

Pinterest gets me in all kinds of trouble. It's there I found the recipe for "Funeral Rolls" that Dwight doesn't like and I love. That's where I found the idea for glow in the dark bubbles that really didn't glow in the dark. It's their  fault that I paint rocks and make desserts that I don't need. This is what I found this morning and I can't stop laughing:

Epic Fail Mattel-try again!

I've had Barbie dolls as long as I can remember. I never wanted to be "Barbie", but man she had some cool stuff. A house with an elevator, corvettes, jeeps, horses, airplanes, pools, and don't even get me started on the clothes. It was a way to escape to a fantasy world and she's always been just a doll to me. I can understand that some people may want to be a "Barbie" and that young girls should have a realistic expectations, but sorry Mattel this is not it.(pictured below is the old and new version of Barbie)
Where's her neck? Does she have a beer problem? Did Mattel resize all of the Barbie shoes? Please try again Mattel, I don't think this is a realistic expectation unless you're related to Honey Boo Boo.
