Weekend Wonderer

What’s Jack up to? Chilling out after a long and really hot weekend. Not too much jumping around today eh, Jack?

This Really has been a particularly hot weekend in New York. Especially for June and especially in my house and I don’t see any relief any time soon. I’m really busy with writing work and end of the school year things for the Dear Teens. Mom stress is at the same high level as the outside thermometer. These are the times that no one warned you about when it was all smiles and congratulations over you having babies. Teens are not babies.
So of course as a writer, when I get stressed I turn to books. Romance, Self-help, The bible. etc.

I picked up this one book in B&N because the title was just was calling my name THE WORN OUT WOMAN. Check out this anonymous quote at the beginning of the first chapter:

“Don’t ask me to relax; it’s my tension that’s holding me together.”

It just made me smile in it’s perfection.

In between working on my new proposal I did a little work in the garden to give my eyes a break. I thought I share some pics here of the Collards I planted. Thanks to PVE for coming through and finding these at Carlson’s.

I’m a girl that likes to feel the dirt in her hands when planting. Guess it’s time for a new mani huh? Boy do my hands look old! UGH.

Here is a freshly cut bouquet of roses that the DH cut for me right before a flash thunderstorm on Saturday. It’s so nice to have flowers from your own garden on your table.

Now to get a little peace of mind at said table…

So how was your weekned?

Best,
