When will the Sun Shine???

I'm harvesting romaine lettuce, broccoli and eggs. I want to plant some vegie seeds but I just don't have the energy right now, so that will have to wait. The good news is that we've had lots of rain, maybe even enough to ease the terrible drought in AZ. The bad news is that it totally cripples me, so the past few weeks have been pretty rugged. My friend Debbie is willing to walk with me, so we go around the block, slowly, but at least I'm getting a little exercise. Then she heads out to walk another 5-6 miles! Only in my dreams.....

I did trim the roses in the back yard yesterday, at least the miniatures. Hopefully I didn't kill them; but I cut them back pretty severely. They needed it, I hadn't pruned them well for a couple years.

We are dog-sitting Dean this week for my niece Megann. He is such a sweet, gentle dog. Cara is happy to have someone to play with, but she plays a little rough and he gets scared....

So is it wrong not to cook? I can't seem to get motivated to cook dinner lately. Eating is lovely, I like to eat, but it's just that I have no motivation to cook. What we need is someone to cook for us! And they could make wheat free pasta with a marvelous cream sauce, and asparagus. Anyone out there interested in the job? Doesn't pay much, but you'll have my deepest gratitude.... Well, time to get off to bed, and tomorrow I have to make dinner, the leftovers are gone, there's nothing left to do but cook. blast. Usually I love to cook, but there are those days, or weeks, that it just isn't fun, and I can't think of anything to make. blah!

Cook, girl I have to do that EVERY NIGHT!!!I try and get my kids to it but they are usually not home. Although, when they are here they are pretty good at helping. My roses need trimmed as well, I was looking at them today and I'm afraid that this harsh winter my have pretty much killed them. I'll wait for it to get a little warmer in case we get a few more deep freezes.
