Well I have ventured into the world of stepping stones. I am new at this hobby, but so far I love it! I can use all kinds of different molds, I do not have to use one kind or shape or other. I can be me and pour my concoction into a mold and hope for the best. It is FUN!
I bought a kit a couple of years ago and finally poured it with my nephew and it is waiting to be finished - that is on the agenda for this week. I am wanting to put an Oak leaf motif on it and am not willing to tug a leaf off my Oak tree to do so. My plan is to print a picture of my Oak leaf and cut that out for the shape and size. Then the stone will be ready for the garden.
The down side is I have a rib out and it is much more painful that I had anticipated so it is slowing me down considerably. According to my chiro I am not to lift anything heavier than a magazine - have not followed that to date, but today it begins - my rib kept me awake last night as it is not happy with three clotheslines of laundry or all the puttering about I did over the course of the weekend - go figure!
So this week is behaving and getting this rib better. We are having a BBQ for my Mom this weekend to celebrate her birthday, not a big affair just my Uncle, a friend of my Mom's and D and I that is all. But, I do have things that I would like to do in order to get ready for the weekend.
It was my original plan to get the tents set up this week so that I can check for repairs and give them a good cleaning - the kind you can do when at home not a campground. I would like to get all my camping clothes and blankets washed and aired out and repack the camping gear as I clean the garage. But that is looking less and less likely with this darn rib.
Get out and enjoy the sunshine today!
