Monday Wash

In the summer Monday is laundry day.  I am racing against the rain however.  I've got my solar dryer (a.k.a. clothes lines) working full tilt because we are under a sever thunderstorm watch until 4:00 this afternoon.  Right now sun, sun, sun.  If the sun can finish dryinging everything by 12:00 I should be ok.  I keep every hanger from clothes bought at the store and hang shirts, bras, t-shirts etc. when I'm short on space.  I clip underware in two's on the clip hangers pants come on.  I hang jeans and t-shirts over the deck railing.  I hang clothes on hangers over the decrative flag poles and I even use the basket ball goal.  My husband built me a ceder drying rack that holds about 8 pairs of jeans.  It's great indoors and out.  In the winter it sits by the woodstove 24/7. 

In the kitchen:  Hambergers on the grill for dinner, bake beans and canned peaches.  Everything bought in the scratch and dent piles.  I wanted to can my own peaches last year, but the S. IN fruit crop got hit by a freeze last spring.

In the sewing room:  working on a pre smocked top for my daughter.  Need to make a pair of jeans into shorts.

In the shoppe:  Dh has been finishing a drain system for our home and doing some masonary work on the decrative stone wall on our home.

In town:  taking daughter to gymnastics, going swiming on Tuesday.

In the garden.  I'll pick lettus for tonights tacos.  We fertilized the other day just before a good rain! Yippee. 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philp. 4:6-7
