All right Bone Blog fans - become a follower and stay up to date on what is happening! I guess we finally figured out that you have to have s Google, Yahoo or Twitter account to sign in and be counted as a follower. (Because we all have twitter accounts...) What benefit could there possibly be to being a follower? I have no IDEA!! I guess that you probably get updates about new posts and such. Anyway - it also gives you a chance to comment and for us to see your cute little picture on the side.
So - new around the Bone compound...
Quick shout out to Paula who celebrated a birthday on Thursday. Happy Birthday to my OLDEST sister. Yeah - I can say that! Makes me feel better about my upcoming birthday!
Also coming up - Neil's birthday on the 10. I think that Annie and Nick have birthdays in the early part of September but I could be wrong. They will have to blog on to let us know so we can properly wish them the best. Any other birthdays in September? Be sure to let us know - easiest way to keep track of things!!
Of course - the very most important birthdays are this month - ME and ASHLEY on the 27th. So start thinking of all the wonderful gift ideas and great stuff for us!
Labor Day weekend!
I have 4 whole days off from work in which to spend pulling weeds, mowing and other exciting outdoors adventures on the compound. At least the weather will be cooperating this time! Supposed to be in the upper 70's to low 80's for most of the weekend. Should be able to get most of the gardens cleaned up before fall. I will have to post some photos sometime of the house and gardens. The hostas are looking a little yellow about now but I think the rain the other night helped a bit. So - what does one do with hostas in the fall to prepare for the winter? Any and all suggestions are encouraged and welcomed!!
The squirrels are spending most the time digging holes in my gardens and planting walnuts and acorns for the winter - that's kinda annoying but also cute to watch them digging. They try so hard with their little arms... Finally got the finches to come back after a long hiatus from the broken feeder. Still haven't tried to suet feeder again since the horrible raccoon attack...darn raccoon pried the thing open and ate all my suet 2 nights in a row. Will have to find a way to prevent that!
Well, that is all the news from the compound for now...look for a later weekend update about the gardening. Maybe I can figure out a few more things on the blog page to load up some photos.
Also - getting to be about time to try making some kolaches again! Will let you know when that happens and how it all turns out!!
Happy Labor Day!!
P.S. - I thought I would try a link to see if it works! Here is the link to Lynn's shop!
