Thank you very much my dear dear friend Lola. I've had a wonderful weekend. Work party on Friday (after I bawled half the morning here and at work. I didn't anticipate how much it would hurt, this first birthday without my mother)
Yesterday I make my soup stock, slept in, read on the couch with a pot of popcorn, took a long nap, talked to my aunt on the phone and went for a wonderful dark and gloomy hike (it was gray and rainy yesterday)
I was up very late last night waiting for the stock to cool enough to strain and put in the fridge. I slept until 9 this morning!
Then I started on the apples as you will see in this thread.
http://parenting-furkids.com/index.php?topic=3930.0It was a fantastically beautiful fall day today, the girls spent the day on the porch while I worked with the apples. I looked out my windows at my beautiful view constantly and of course, I got to get out every hour or so to dump the latest load of peels and cores and pick the next load of apples.
Just a lovely lovely weekend.
I haven't eaten yet, though,
I'm about to have a nice bowl of my soup, a salad and some home made applesauce.
