Woke up this morning to rain on the roof . . . and all other parts out there in the great out-of-doors.
Not that we don't need the rain, because we really, really do, but we also needed a dry weather day in order to finish the cutting, gluing and construction of the kitchen counter top. The same counter top that will hold my new kitchen sink which will then be hooked up to water lines and give me, once again and hallelujah, water in the kitchen.
My ever-optimistic husband tells me not to fret, the rain will stop and we'll be able to proceed as planned.
Someone's GOT to have a talk with Mother Nature. She seems to have flipped her lid. I hope you get a nice, dry afternoon and everything is hooked up, and running smoothly. And then we need pictures.
Ditto - Mother Nature is having way too much fun lately. We are expecting frost here tonight - am going to be wrapping up the garden in frost blankets for sure!
APG - Just after lunch right now and the weather outside is still wet, wet, wet. So we've gone ahead and are doing everything inside, cutting, spraying adhesive, routing, filing . . . making a real mess for sure. But we're moving ahead.
Mama Tea - Papa Pea's predictive abilities done pooped out on us!
Jane - B says I WILL be doing my accumulated mass of dishes by tonight. Oh, how I hope she's right! (But it's not even close right now. :o\)
Susan - Taking pictures . . . hope you can see through the flying dust. Ish.
Oh my gosh. Is that actual RAIN in the gauge??????? We just had our ELEVENTH day of sun. You cannot imagine how dry it is. Send it here--I'll gladly take it off your hands so you can have a sink. Really. That's just the kind of gal I am! :)
I live with my husband on a small homestead in Northern Minnesota. Our daughter currently lives in a small cabin in the woods not too far from us.
Our place is located outside a small town and a two and a half hour's drive from the nearest big city. Trips to the city are infrequent, well-planned, and exhausting!
We currently raise chickens and have hives of honey bees. Raising some of our meat and most of our fruits and vegetables is a priority for us; so, along with our birds for meat and eggs, we have fruit trees, berry patches and a huge vegetable garden.
Quilting is my passion, and I could happily spend each day in my quilt studio if I weren't happily spending each day out in the garden. Good thing we have winters up here; Mother Nature helps keep my life balanced.

Into everyones remodel a little rain must fall. I bet your doing dishes by tonight. Wait, is that a good thing?
From Papa Pea's lips to god's ear...

2 Tramps - FROST??! Omigosh. Too soon, too soon!
I hope the rain comes my way and leave you alone. I could really use a few days of rain.
