Tons of leaves...
Pretty cloudy...
Time to get to work...
 |
| Started bringing up the shutters from the basement... |
 |
| All installed...we leave the middle one for last, as it lets the light into the kitchen... |
 |
| My boyfriend actually got the camera, and took a couple of shots of me with the leaf blower...notice they are a bit "blurry".....need I say more??!! |
 |
| Got a chance for a garden walk-about...still a few Fall things blooming... |
Downloaded these into Picasa 3...
Not so sure that I like the quality...
I thought my pictures were usually clearer than these...
Oh well....at least I have some more space...:o)
Hope you all had a great weekend...
Had Vivian for 5 hours today....I am pooped!!!
She never cried once...just giggled and smiled......:o)
Cheers! :o)

That's a big job done! You sure have quite a few flowers in bloom!
ReplyDeleteYes Pam...finally done...now we will just have to wait to shut the water off...:o(...then you can all hear me whine!!
DeleteAnother season come and gone. Work is all done.... Now for the snow...
ReplyDeleteMy son just flew in from Calgary, his flight was delayed 4 hours. They had a foot of snow.
They can keep it. But you know the saying that if they get it, it eventually comes here.
That is for sure Linda...I can certainly wait for the snow...no matter how long it takes!!!...ha ha ha..
DeleteThose cheeks! Muah!
ReplyDeleteGetting chubbier by the day!!!

Not yet...tomorrow is the boyfriends b'day...will cook a family dinner..
DeleteThe cottage is a labor of love...still more raking...finetuning...put some more garden items away...blah blah blah!!!! But......we love it!! And that baby...an added bonus!! :o)
Dito, that's exactly what I have been up to. There are huge trees next to my home so I got on with composting them as the leaf mould makes the ideal seed compost for my flower growing pursuits. All 40 bin liner fulls to be exact. Totally done for today! more allotment pics to follow as I have made special containers from pallets to store them in.
ReplyDeleteShame for them to go to waste! Wheel barrow wheels feel off that's the only thing that halted me. Ha!
Good for you Lisa...tried that one year, but all I ended up with was leaves!! hahaha
DeleteJust think of all the exercise you get raking all those leaves!! Vivian is growing more adorable every day!
ReplyDeleteI used the blower!!!hahaha...but I also helped carry the shutters up from the basement....does that count?
DeleteLooks like the cottage is all set for winter. What on earth do you do with all those leaves?
ReplyDeleteVivian looks so cute all dressed in pinks.
It's breezy today, more so down by the lake where we went for a nice walk this morning. Rain moving in for this evening.
We blow or drag them all to the beach...we can burn them, or just let them get carried out by the waves....it was too windy last weekend to burn them,tho...
DeleteOh what fun to have such a delightful cottage to enjoy. Do you go in the winter at all? We are so very lucky to be able to enjoy my Mom's place, only an hour away from us. She is talking of selling it though. Which will only make us want to move there sooner!!!
ReplyDeleteYour grand daughter is beautiful! I know that "Pooped" feeling. I have had my grandson full time while my daughter works, since his birth. It was way easier when I was in my twenties!!!!

We go as long as we can keep the water on...usually mid-December...we have spent many New Years Eves there...without water!!! But, we go for regular visits all winter long..
DeleteHard workers! :)
ReplyDeleteHad to laugh at your blurry photos taken by the now infamous boyfriend. When I ask someone around here to take a picture of me it's either blurry or the top of my head is cut off! hahaha.
Yes.....why is that??? There will be no history of me...except for the ones I take of myself!! hahaha...
