Tuesday at home

Not a heck of a lot going on today. I spent an hour working on the pots for the back deck. Wanted to do more but my back had other plans.

I came in a baked some mini loaves of banana bread and framed a counted cross stitch design I had finished. Hope to complete my latch hook rug next week.



I lost the pattern for the flag so I'm kind of winging it as I go.  Doesn't really matter since I'll only be standing on it afterwards anyhow.  Tomorrow will be about the same as today although I hope to get more family history done.

Saw this cartoon on Facebook and got a kick out of it....

Ever since I've made an attempt to keep fresh water in the bird baths, I've noticed the crows are coming around more. Oh well, I guess they need water too.  Sammy does love to jump off the porch chasing them. They take off immediately and fast so I suspect he enjoys the power trip.  Ha!

Congratulations to Marilyn and John Ecker who got a new grandbaby today.
