~a farm down the road~

Hello friends!

Happy Monday!

....sort of.....

this will be two Mondays in

a row of rain.....

{I'm sure I'm not complaining about the rain this early

in the season.....nahhhhh....I wouldn't do that....}

but there is just something

about the combination

of Monday morning & rain

that just doesn't seem right.....

I mean aren't Monday's hard

enough without making them

all rainy & gloomy at the same time??

sheesh.....

if it appears to you that I'm just a touch cranky today....

you just might be right....;)

you see~ my absolutely fabulous

husband,

{on all other days but today & any other day he wakes me up at 5am}...

Mr. T & T

has gotten into this new "thing"

called waking up at 5am everyday...

to go to the gym....

argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't get up that early

&

I'm evidently too old to go back to sleep.....

{why?}

so, yes, you see....I'm just a wee bit cranky.....

so this morning I'm looking at my options.....

My Options:

 a) earplugs & eye covers

b) go to bed at 8:30pm

c) sleep on the couch

d) Mr. T & T on the couch

e) Mr. T & T sleeping in the doghouse?

f) turning off Mr. T & T's alarm "accidentally..."

g) Mrs. T & T sleeping in the doghouse....hee hee

any other awesome ideas?????

well, I'll let you know what I come up with!

~*~

but for now, let's look at the bright side of things

shall we?? :)

{of course I'm talking to myself here!!!}

like these beautiful pictures of a cute little

farm up the road from me....

this darling family farm has been

around since 1872!!

I go every fall and pick up pumpkins

and corn stalks for my outdoor decorating...

along with all their farm fresh produce....

they have a huge pumpkin patch,

hay rides, petting zoo, and

a corn maze...

they also sell beautiful hanging baskets

and flowers of all kinds...

garden adornments & such....

they're actually located just a 1/2 mile

from our high school....just down the road...

what a treat, huh?

we love to get their "fresh from the field"

corn on the cob...

enjoyed some last night....

I'm really grateful for little places like this....

and yes....

I'm grateful for a husband

who wants to stay in shape.....

even at the expense of my beauty sleep.....

it's ok....I'm not resentful of the puffy eyes

and dark circles that age me 20 years...

if he can feel better & work out....

I'm fine with that.....

aren't I such a brat??

wow....

do you still love me?

Have a wonderful day girls!!

xoxo,

Shellagh
