Great weekend!; what a Sunday!!

This has been a wonderful weekend. Most of our weekends in the old Rooster household are fun, but this one was really good and we did not do too much leaving the old homestead. There was a lot of work mixed in with a lot of fun. So we are happy now and tired.

The lion’s share of my weekend was spent in the garden. The old garden really looks great now. It’s hard to believe how much it has been tranformed since the beginning of February when I really began to work on it. I have so many different things planted and they are all doing well. Today I planted some watermelon, squash, Swiss chard, Morning glories, mints, basil, and chives. I grew them all from seed. That makes growing them all the more special. The garden looks great. It will continue to do well.

The wife and I went out to eat today after taking a ride and doing some shopping and mostly looking at stuff to buy later. Our niece was down at the Strawberry Festival in Poteet. Now, that’s a fine town if there ever was one. We ate a nice restaurant for lunch. It was a great meal. We sat down and had a great talk. We don’t get to spend too much time like that anymore. We made the most of it.

The wife also took the niece shopping yesterday. That child is growing like a bad weed. She needs new shoes about once a month. She is tall. We have to keep her clothed. So we have to continue to buy her clothes. Do we have to buy her clothes? This is one aspect of parenting that really has taken us by surprise. I guess we never had to think about clothes for a young one, and a young girl at that. We will do whatever it takes to give the child a great home. She has problems, but we will work through all of that in the long run.

I could sit and write much more about my weekend, but I will spare the minute deals. The big deal is this was a great weekend. It’s back to work tomorrow, but I will be ready. Thanks for the read. Enough said!!
