Mother Hen of One

What a great weekend! We got a lot done on the homestead.
The lawn was mowed, I added some more moss to my rock garden/pond. AND! The hubster built a dock on the lake. (Not to mention Andrew Nicholson won the Rolex! He is such an amazing rider! )

It was a beautiful weekend. I got to ride the new horse Buddy who I have nick named "The (wet) noodle" because it feels as though I am on top of one while trying to ride him. I also got Giselle to jump over a cavaletti while lunging, and I got to hang out with a bunch of girl scouts. There was lots of sun, the leaves have bloomed on the trees... and on Sunday I got to drop Watts off with his Granny for a three day "vacation".

I called her this morning to see how things went for his first night sleeping over. He apparently is having a great time, he slept through the night, and is eating her out of house and home.

When I spoke to him on the phone I asked him if he missed me, "nope" came a quick reply. "Do you want to come home?" "NO! I want to stay here with Granny!" "Awesome!, I'm glad you like it there" Granny gets back on the phone. "He hates me!" "No he doesn't! Watts, come here, tell your mother that you love her" "I love you mommy" "See?" "You just made him say that" "No I didn't" ....
Anyway, my kid hates me... and we are fine with that.

Meanwhile, I have cleaned the entire house, vacuumed, did laundry, scrubbed the bathroom, there isn't a toy to be seen. James has not cried once, and has been happily playing and napping.

It's so quiet in fact that I can hear the clock ticking. It's amazing how much I can get done when my  drunk midget isn't nipping at my heels.

Hmmm....I don't even know what to do now cause all of my chores are done... I suppose it's time to go shopping with ease. It's a wonderful life... sing it people. C'mon....

cough.. oh I mean... man I miss Wattsy. Shit. My day sucks without him.
