....in S. W. Ontario it is raining. I welcome the odd day like this during the busy days of getting the Spring gardening done. It gives me a chance to catch up on my housework, which has been neglected during the past week because we have had such beautiful weather and I would much rather be outside.
Vacuuming and dusting done, kitchen and bathroom cleaned from top to bottom.
Gave OH a hair cut. I have been cutting his hair for years, I am no professional, but at least he doesn't have to wear a hat for a week until it grows back in a bit. With the guides on the blades you really can't go wrong----well, I guess you could if you were not careful, anyway, he was happy with it so that's all that matters. My Dad used to say, "The only difference in a good hair cut and a bad one, is three days", so by Tuesday OH should look OK.
This afternoon I have been able to work on the quilt I have started to put together for my great grandson, so far, I love the way it is looking. On a previous post I showed the fabric, -- African wild animals. I have just bought a new camera, still trying to figure it out, will post photo's later.
Now I have to make my Friendship Amish bread, the dough has to sit on the counter for ten days, on the fourth day I had to feed it and now today I can make my loaves. It really is yummy, I have been putting some in the freezer, so that I can take out a loaf whenever I need something sweet.
Well gotta go........

We're in BC's "home of the Sun God" but I think he's on strike. I've never seen May weather like this. It's so depressing. But my house doesn't get proper care always either. It's clean just dusty -that's what happens when you back on farm land and live near a coal port. I'd rather just quilt. I'm definately going to try the cheaper haircuts after July 1. I can't afford the prices they charge now. Add to it and forget it. I'll switch to growing it out and wearing a bun.
Wow that bread sounds intense! I hope it turns out perfectly! Post a photo of it when its baked :-) Sam xox
