We have been busy here with school and work and projects around the house. Cam finished his winter classes and began his spring classes. He still has a 4.0 GPA. Jar has been busy with school papers and working a lot of 6 a.m. shifts. Michael has been busy at work...lots of meetings. I am always busy keeping up with everything at home.
Here is what has been happening around here lately:
...got a good book at the Library
...Michael and Jar went to the Jeep shop in Portland and then to a Korean BBQ place for lunch
...here is their view on the drive
...lunch at the Korean place
...I fell in love with this tree (it is a Magnolia)
...Cam ran some errands in town
...this is what he got as a treat to himself for finishing with A's in his two winter classes
...I buy three large bunches of bananas every week for the boys
...I made chicken thighs, mashed sweet potatoes, and roasted green beans. It was Yummo!
...this was my office for the day
...I got one of these this month as I usually do my school order in April. Not this year :(
...do you think Zena has enough treats?
...Jar doing some jump roping to get cardio
...tree down (we had the tree cut down)
...some new finds
...working on my garden journal
...the mess after they got the stump out
...new baskets for the laundry room
...homemade wash cloths for washing my face (my grandma used to make these)
...what's for dinner?
...the tree guy busted up the sump pump drain pipe, so Michael had to fix it
...Michael brought me home some daffodils
...I burned my hand pretty bad with boiling hot water (does not look bad here...more pictures to follow) It swelled up pretty good.
...Lily eating her treat beside me
...my hand two days later
...Michael doing yard work
...my hand four days after burning it
...finishing the yard work
...Jar and I made a homemade Korean dish for lunch
...a week after burning my hand
...Easter Sunday
...this was Grandma Joseph's iron that we took when she passed away. I don't know how long she had it when we took it, but it just died (we had it at least 12 years) Michael uses it daily. That is a good iron!
...this is my hand a week and two days after burning it (it is cracking and peeling now, so it hurts and itches)
...Michael and Jar are trying to figure out what size tire and rim to put on the Jeep, so they pulled the tire off the truck and leaned it against it to see what that looked like
...this is a week and three days after burning my hand. It has peeled fully, so now it is burning and itching. It should be fully healed soon now. The salve I am using is really working.
Other happenings around here:
- we had some warmer weather (in the 70's)
- I did some weeding outside
- Michael and I watched The Same Kind of Different As Me (too slow of a movie, but it had a good message)

- Cam, Jar, and I went shopping...they both got shirts for Easter
- Jar did so much jumping rope that he could barely walk
- I did tons of laundry
