I-O, I-O, I KNOW, I KNOW

My friends....
I know I owe a lot of you answers to emails, etc.......... I really am not ignoring you, tho it does seem that way - I have been and am VERY BUSY right now. Kind of almost over-whelmed with STUFF - responsibilities at home, class work, papers to write, tests to take, family health issues keeping me up all hours, and the list goes on. I won't even mention grass that is not cut, weeds that have become permanent residents, and other things too numerous to mention. So, this is my apology......... I promise I will do better as soon as I can.
It is 8:30 AM - so far I have dinner in the crock pot (BBQ chicken), the gardens have been watered (Gabrielle stood us up), been to the ga$ $tation to get ga$ for the van and mower (wishful thinking), cleaned out 2 birdfeeders and refilled them - we got to Sam's (65 miles north) on Sunday and I got 2 boxes of the birds favorite seed - if you have never tried it - DO IT! Your birds will love you forever (and we won't even mention the squirrels), the animals have had their meds, clean water, food, birdbath scraped and refilled (Spook prefers this water to his bowl, yuck! so I try to keep the algae level down), van cleaned out, extra bird seed put away, trash out by the curb, kitty boxes cleaned out, dishes done, bed made, storm windows back down - today will be in the 90s... the A/C was already running when I got up at 4:30... I need to run the vac before I take my godson grocery shopping at 9:30... lets see, what did I forget? Well, I guess that is not too bad for an old lady. I will be 64 next week... where did the time go? But, as long as my wheelchair stays out in the barn, I am happy.
Just so I have time to get a shower before I go to church at noon.......
So, be patient with me. I have not forgotten you - I just do not have any time to read your blogs or answer you all right now. My apologies. Thanks!!!!
