Word of the Day

Jokative - Describes one who expresses themselves frequently through joke.

I'm trying to get up the gumption to make some cookies this morning. For some reason, I can't seem to have any energy to do anything at all despite the fact that there is lots that needs doing. Oh well...I did strip the beds and I've got a load of sheets started. Today isn't laundry day but the sheets need washing and I don't want to be totally overwhelmed tomorrow when I do the rest of the laundry.

It rained yesterday. Thankfully, I already had picked the raspberries because it was a real whomper of a rain storm. Lightening, thunder, sheets of rain. Only an inch but it's an inch that we needed. How come it always rains when I water my garden? At least we didn't get any hail. It looks like I should pick the beans in the garden again. I glanced in that direction after I bilged the boat. Maybe I'll have more energy to pick beans tomorrow. It's kind of wet out there right now. We may even get more rain.
