Home Sweet Home - Day 27

Today the theme was "the view from your back door".  Nice and straightforward, I like it.  I also really love my back yard.  This is actually the view from my driveway since the back door is a slider and the porch roof cuts into the view too much.  We have grass, our lovely little white fence which starts what I think of as our park.  The park (or back back as my husband calls it) has some nice trees so me and the boys like to play out there.  The woods (or the way back in Chad-speak) are ours to for about an acre and have some trails, deer, a badger and according to Chad a weasel he spotted last week.  We used to have an outdoor kitty that I was feeding but she went missing almost two weeks ago.  I am rather hoping that has nothing to do with the new weasel.  And we have lovely I-76 on the far right complete with exit ramp.  I like it though I know most people think I am crazy.  It makes for interesting people watching and the sound is mostly blocked out in the house, but is soothing regardless. I am hoping we get to use Ethan's pool a few more times this season, but it has a tear in the bottom that I need to patch first. 

Today has been an okay day.  Chad is supposed to have Friday's off but went in from 10-2:45.  Grrrr.....especially since Wednesday is his other day off and he went to work from 9-4:30 that day.  Ethan's cold is a little better today, mine is a little worse.  Aidan, aside from a debacle on Monday, had an excellent first week at school which is absolutely fabulous and more than I had hoped for. Going to get some couch time in tonight with the husband, we're watching Season 5 of Weeds on Netflix.  Instant view through our Wii has been such a blessing - I can't think of the last time I watched something live on TV - yay!
