Blue hands


Arizona is starting to heat up. We are debating on replacing our canvas awning or investing in a permanent structure. Any shade would be a good thing. This morning I had some friends over. We tie dyed some clothing for the kids. There were not enough gloves so, my hands are now a dark shade of blue. I did not notice them getting so dark. No matter how much I have tried to wash them it is not coming off. Oh well, I will just have to be blue for a few days. LJH is back up on the roof. Today he should be done sealing it. I know he is eager to be finished with this home project. A&T have been wanting to be at home more. They enjoy the backyard. They have a sheet they drape over their slides and use it as a tent. They love watering the plants and each other. We planted a garden on the side of the house and it has been fun watching the plants come up. They planted, watermelon, artichoke, dill, mint, corn, peas, tarragon, sunflowers, and a few other things. The warmer temperature is already drying out the tarragon. We shall see if it can endure the heat. The kids last day of school is on the 20th of May. It was a good year. I can't believe how quickly the year went. I am looking forward to school next year, 3 days per week. That's it for now.
