Yes, I am complete spoiled

Here is my Mother's Day present:

You may ask yourself: why have two monitors? Well I will tell you a story. I grade a LOT of stuff and it takes a long time to open each assignment, then read it, close it, write comments/a grade, post it and then open the next one. My sweetie heard me complaining and suggested this. I thought it was stupid - who needs two monitors?

Well , as it turns out... I DO! He ordered me one for Momma's Day and installed it and everything. It is AWESOME! I can have two big screens open and be grading TWO different assignments at the same time - WAY less wasted time and WAY WAY WAY faster. Also - I can have even MORE screens opened at the same time when I am playing. An EXCELLENT present - thanks sweetie! Could I also maybe have breakfast in bed tomorrow?

We sent flowers to Ashley's and Ellie's birthmoms. We hope they know how much we love them.

"This is why we don't sew angry"

Yep, I tried to sew my finger last night. OUCH! Josh came up to apply ointment and bandage and said the classic line, "This is why we don't sew angry." I was mad the plunkos weren't going to bed very well. Don't worry - the point is still attached to the needle - not in my finger. Do I need a tetnus shot?

Look how fast our garden grew! I figured we would invest in already-grown plants in order to make it more obvious to our younger gardeners WHERE the garden was and WHERE the plants were. So hopefully there will be FEWER 'garden fatalities' with bigger plants.

Josh also got the sprinkler system fixed up in that part of the yard (we didn't turn it on or attach any sprayers because of the pit). And we planted lots and lots of grass seed. It is suppose to be 80 degrees on Tuesday, so those little grasses can just grow, grow, grow. My sweetie got to be home this WHOLE weekend (Fri-Sun) after working lots and lots the past three weekends. We are puttering around. Very nice. Off I go to grade - ugh.
