Happy May Day

Was a crazy stormy weekend here in Nebraska. At first I was pretty stoked because this meant instead sitting at softball games all day I could put in some quality time with my recliner. (We love each other deeply and been having a long distant affair for the past year)

That dream was short lived as I spent most of Saturday hunting down and killing the horrific odor coming from my sons room. I will not disgust you with the details of what I found, and it was touch and go for a while, but I came out the victor!

Sunday morning found me out in the yard, in my PJs, in a storm trying to prop up the fence so the wind couldn't do any more damage to it. I came in the house covered with mud and freezing my nips off, and there is my ex standing in the kitchen. Lucky for him, the axe was outside holding up the fence.

After kindly escorting him out, I cleaned up and went on to have a wonderful day writing about his untimely demise.

We ended the day by vacuuming about 50 gallons of water out of the basement. My kids were a great, though less than enthusiastic, bucket brigade. It took much less time than expected, to regain dry ground.

I woke this morning thinking of the colorful May baskets I used to make with the kids. Filled with popcorn and smarties and twizzlers. Then I look out the window to find the ground covered with snow! What the freak?? It's May! Oh well that is Nebraska for ya..... it's suppose to be 80 by Friday.

I love my world. Happy May Day my friends.
