I had the allergy tests today, and nothing extraordinary showed up. I am allergic to birch trees, dust mites, and mold. Nothing that has been causing the hives. Gratefully, VERY gratefully, I am not allergic to cats, and Mr. Sunnie will stay. He will be so happy to return to his post at the foot of my bed at night, and I will be happy to have him there.
A bit about the pictures below:
See the pine straw in the front and back yards? That's what I'm talking about. The bit of grass you see in the backyard is IT no more, no less. Glad we sold that riding mower.......
Also, I called time and temp. in Creston this morning and I don't want to hear any whining from any of you! I know it was 50* at 8am--it was 88* here. Just enjoy it and save your pennies for your heat bill. We will get a reprieve from high AC bills when it gets "cold" here. I haven't changed my front door wreath to fall colors yet because it would seem odd to have autumn leaves when it is this hot, yet all the stores have them out for sale. Maybe I will buy some mums and put them in a pot though.
The kids and I made butter this morning as part of our Colonial Life studies. Marty was just in awe that they "had to make everything, because they not have Wal Mart." Theo thought it was neat that the "boys had to take the fathers' trades." And the girls thought it was just a lot of work--they're onto that!
Now for some shameless begging--please, will you all offer up a prayer that my hives will disappear just as they appeared--just because? I hate being so crabby and irritable, adn I'm sure my famiily isn't too keen on it either. Thanks ever so much!
