March's Beginning

My cousin's daughter asked if I would make a flower girl basket and crown for her daughter who is to be the flower girl in a wedding in April and I said sure. Got the colors and the measurement of her head and went to work and in less than two days I got the materials and wahla! I shipped it down to Florida and they were thrilled with my work. I really liked how they turned out too.

Scott and I finally found a place to park off the road so that we could take pictures of the Saluda Lake Dam and  the train tresel over the Saluda River below the dam. Scott drives this way to work everyday. Hopefully by this time next year we will be living closer to his job in Liberty. The picture of the dam is not very good as there are a lot of trees there but you can kinda get an idea.

I'm going to see if these will still bake up all right and if they do I will hang them in a window here.

 We spent last weekend cleaning out the basement; lots of trash but also finding some interesting treasures. Scott also found a can that was sealed and rattled so of course he had to see what was in it. We were shocked to find that it was filled with 32 pounds of cherry and lemon flavored hard candies! 

 In this picture you can see how much we got out of the basement around  the old furnace... it's over 50 years old and still runs and kept us warm this year. It is a real workhorse!

Yesterday was my 52nd birthday. Scott took me out to eat to Olive Garden and then we came home and got the washing machine set up in the basement. Which was a MAJOR accomplishment for us. YEAH!

Then this morning I went to the Walmart in Travelers Rest and bought a couple clothes drying racks and went to work and got two loads completed. YEAH clean clothes are AWESOME!Now when we are in Cayce our attention can be focused solely on home repairs! Hopefully we will have that house ready to sell by November... thats the plan at least.

That about gets you all caught up. Scott has an appointment with an Orthopedic Dr on the 18th as it has been determined by his new DR here that he has Arthritis in his ankles.

Piper kitty gets spayed on Monday and I will be staying down  there to care for her while Greg is at school and work for a few days. While I am down there I also plan to do some sorting through of stuff and perhaps get a load carted off to Goodwill and out of our way.
