Happy Easter...

There’s nothing better than a good friend, except a good friend with CHOCOLATE.

Now I am feeling great, I mean physically I'm tired... The job is hard, the pay is about right, but it's catching up with the bills that will prove interesting.

In the past week or so I have not been blogging much, not that I don't have anything to say but I have been busy... I mean really busy...

Got a new job, just in time to save my house we will be back on our financial feet in a few weeks as long as things go as planned. Working midnight shift so I can keep doing my day to day company things and take care of the kids and mother's appointments etc it is exactly what I asked for and as long as I can balance the right amount of sleep with the right amount of physical activity I should be fine...

Now I want to talk about the day before today...

My kids all helped out in the yard, but my oldest (string bean) helped more than ever before. I mean he really helped... He dug out our new garden, turned the sod and shook out the roots, helped me move the compost bin... Yeah that's right, the 100 thousand or so apples that we get from our tree each year miraculously turns into beautiful black soil by the next spring. It's fantastic! Then there was the tree pruining. We have an apple tree and a crab apple tree, it took the rest of the day to cut up all the branches into 16 big bundles for the city waste management to take away... I would do something with them in the way of recycling but we just don't have the space. My boy and I also dug out and installed a pond liner with a water fountain, it was a real full days work and I have blisters on my hand to prove it but it was all worth it.

Today I think I'll subject the boy to some major vehicle detail cleaning... :)

Am I pushing my luck with that one?
