It Wasn't a Bad Day Off and Check Out My Ristra Peppers!

I didn't get as much accomplished as I had wanted yesterday, but I'm still considering the day to have been a success. At this time of the year, I rarely get to everything on my "to do" list. I did pick up and assemble the frame for a piece I've been working on, I still have a minor re-do before I can cut the glass and call this one done. I'll try to get to that tomorrow. 




Just look at this gorgeous ristra pepper. It's 
turning gloriously red. I can hardly wait for 
the others to change as well. 



I had a bunch of green and yellow beans that we've harvested just crying out for cooking, so I grabbed a bit of time and got that done. They're FABULOUS! And, I took photos of my Ristra peppers to share. The one monster is turning gloriously red. 




I'm so proud of my ristra pepper. I wasn't sure if 
they would have enough summer up here to turn 
red, but I finally am getting the color I need. 



I didn't get any of the housecleaning done, that's mostly on Friday's agenda. But generally, I consider that yesterday was a good day and I got a lot of things done. I need to keep on track, the month is slipping/rushing by all too quickly and Sharon's visit is approaching. She won't mind a messy house - it's really just horrid in the computer room. Her room is just fine, her bathroom will be fine - I'll move my stuff into the upstairs bathroom for the few days she's visiting us, which will give her a bathroom of her own. I'm always scrubbing the shower, so that's not much of an issue either ... yeah, it's just general cleanup, a good vacuum, and getting my dragons dusted and preening once again. 




I need to pull out the gloves and the housecleaning supplies 
and tackle the house. I also need to vacuum - I have very few 
bare floors - I prefer carpeting. So, my next week will be 
filled with home maintenance - LOL. 



Reading the above, I guess I have a serious clean ahead of me for tomorrow - LOL. That's fine - it needs doing anyway and I'm pretty experienced at it after all this time.
