May Chronicle
It's hard to believe that June is tomorrow. Where did this month go? I've been so preoccupied. May was a good month, full of life.
+ I started off the month by making May Day baskets
+ I knocked out several items on my fix list around the house. It feels good to not have them hanging over my head.
+ Purchased a new refrigerator...finally
+ Attended cc's family reunion
+ Celebrated my dad's birthday, cousin's birthday, cc's dad's birthday, and my brother's anniversary
+ Received really good news from cc's sister+ Found the cutest pet rabbit in my driveway and provided a safe home for him...for a week
+ After deciding to keep Hop A. Long his family called and they came to get him
+ Traveled to Nebraska to manifest my sister's dreams and meet my cute nephew
+ Celebrated my mother on mother's day and sent her a homemade card
+ Met a famous person that is in my sister's social circle
+ Arts & Letters Live - John Irving - a very interesting character
+ Worked on banning junk mail and somehow felt I got more this month than ever
+ Trained 350 YMCA day camp counselors in behavior management
+ Almost flooded the house when the new frig arrived and I tried to connect the water line
+ I put up 7 quarts of green beans to freeze and 11 quart jars of bread and butter squash. In the process I managed to dump an entire bowl and sugar mixture on my floor. I've scrubbed it 3 times and it's still sticky.
+ I turned another year older
+ Attended the cutest dance recital ever
+ Watched the entire second season of Dowton Abbey

- the humming birds have finally arrived
+ In the garden
