Happy Friday!

I have a lot of pics I REALLY need to download, but as of yet, that's just not happened. Perhaps tomorrow.

I am still in shock that April is almost over. We have a busy week next week, and tomorrow is the blasted Beach Music Festival (meaning every drunk within a 100 mile radius will descend on a nearby farm and any road in or out to our house will be blocked with a traffic id/sobriety checkpoint as well as drunk idiots thinking they can ride fourwheelers through our yard as a possible means of escape) and as it won't be the wisest thing to leave home this Saturday, we went shopping today. We were able to get 2 of the 3 wedding gifts we needed, so I'm thankful for that.

Tonight we started cutting grass in hopes of getting most of that done this evening. I stopped for us to make a quick trip to the nearby gas station, and upon our return, I couldn't get the blades to engage. So I guess Monday we'll be calling John Deere, which is NOT an expense we were anticipating this month. :(   I'm hoping it's something simple.

And now as I'm typing, sound checks for the beach music festival are beginning. My windows aren't rattling (yet), but I think we'll be hearing the music quiet well this year. As long as they don't play "I Love Beach Music" every thirty minutes like they did a few years ago, I should make it through the day with my sanity intact. 

I'm trying to type "count it all joy" with a non-sarcastic face, but not succeeding. Maybe I'll have a better attitude tomorrow when I don't smell like cut grass.
