early saturday mornings

[Alysser]

I have work all weekend, I just got home from work. It was pouring so they let us go home early. Blah, tommorow I work 9:30-5. I LOVE coming in at 9:30 when I'm in the same area as my friends but I don't think I am tommorow. I get to do FUN chores like sweep, stock the games, open the games, clean the back room, ORGANIZE the back room, etc. SO exciting.

I have relatives driving in from out of state this afternoon, so I'm going to be lazy all morning and spend the afternoon with them.

it's supposed to rain later today, so i'm gonna finish this coffee, then out to pull weeds, then pull out the lemon balm bed..i'm planning on planting something new there. i saw a reddish ornamental grass i'd like along the east fence line. tonight, helena, she of of 4 years old and a serious need to have me paint her toe nails will be staying over. we're going to go to the near by school fair, ride the rides and eat cotton candy....hey does this mean i'm turning into my grandma?

I got off of work about an hour ago. I got the chance to take some random pictures and pet the kitties. I have a cold, which stinks and work was an extreme pain in the butt but now I can sit back and relax after eating a good breakfast. I have to sleep most of the day so I can go to work at midnight but at least I get to enjoy the morning! Around here, its the best time of day.
Hope everyone is enjoying Saturday!

It is so quiet and peaceful, we are having our first rain of the season and I have the window open and I am enjoying the sound of the light rain with my morning coffee.

What great posts! I do love Sat mornings too. There's a light rain outside and it's warm with my two boys purring away. I'm fixing to get on my Wellies and go to the farmers market for some fresh food from local farms. Life is good

A pair of Wellington boots



The Wellington boot, also known as a wellie, a topboot, a gumboot, or a rubber boot, is a type of boot based upon Hessian boots. It was worn and popularised by Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington and fashionable among the British aristocracy in the early 19th century.
Wellington boots are waterproof and are most often made from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) a halogenated polymer. They are usually worn when walking on wet or muddy ground, or to protect the wearer from heavy showers. They are generally just below knee-high.

I've had a few pairs like that ... bit I always called 'em my FIRE Boots!

A fireman that doesn't know what "wellies" are? Mine happen to be leopard print! I'm glad I bought them last year. Our farmers market is actually on a farm! As in dirt! It was worth it to have them if I only use them today! Had to trek thru some major mud to get my fresh eggies and butter. Yummo! I actually really like the rain (she says snuggled under a throw and two kitties and seasons 1-3 of Will and Grace on dvd )
