Busted!

Hi, Erin! I've been hoping you'd leave a comment! And now that you have...

To all of my devoted followers -
The family, the friends, the friends of family, the family of family, the non-commenting followers,
and that creepy, sinister looking chap that's lurking over there in the shadows...

(Notice how this completely inflates my readership. But really, I do appreciate all 5 of you.)

Please take the time to go to the comments section of my last entry and click on Erin's name and find your way to her blog. It's worth reading. :)

And yes, I have been absent for a while. I know this. I hit a funk and got lost there for a bit.
I don't think I was alone in the funk, but it was a thick funk so I couldn't find my way out.
I heard laughter... (from the creepy, sinister looking chap - I'd guess...)

:)

So what have I been up to?

Well...
I bought a new phone. This one can take pictures. I now consider myself technologically savvy even if I haven't learned how to retrieve the messages yet.

I haven't made any major home improvements, although I did replace the trampoline...again.

I hit a couple garage sales and now have about 60 more movies to watch.

I bought some plants from Menard's. I dug up a bunch of plants from Duke's (college buddy) that he wanted removed, and a friend from town dropped off 3 five-gallon pails of plants and said there's more available when I'm ready for them.

Plus, there's some glossy leaved shade plants near work that I've been eyeing since last year. It turns out that they have large purple blossoms at this time of the year- so I'll be wanting to transplant some of that...and I also found several large clumps of Sedum growing on my own property that will need a more suitable location.

I have 85 bags of mulch and a lot of landscaping to do.

I figure I should have most of this done about this time next year. Sure wish I'd've scheduled my vacations sometime before July!

And yes... as Doodles pointed out in the comment section of the last blog entry... I have given most of my non-work computer time to Facebook. So I'm busted on that...as well as for my own lack of blogging.

Val - Still waiting for your blog to materialize as Sheila is still in the funk.

Erin - The "Christine" I referred to is a car from Stephen King's book by that title. The car had the ability to fix itself, was selfish, and had a bad temper. (It tended to kill people in car wrecks and then fix itself.)

But you're right. And I wasn't sure on the spelling... so I Google searched it and it's spelled "hypocrite". :) Glad you're back on!
