Changed Plans

So today I had the day planned. Going to urgent care in the morning to get a referral to get a Dr.. Then Strawberry picking followed by visiting teaching in the late afternoon. Unfortunately, that is not how it turned out. We went to urgent care but after the quick visit with the dr. the car wouldn't start. Don't know why, it was just dead. I don't understand cars when it can be working fine forever then you just jump in and... nothing. So what do you do? We did have a small umbrella stroller in the trunk so we set out for home. Mike actually walked about half the way. Scotty didn't really feel like walking but he did walk a few blocks when Mike couldn't walk any farther. We made it to a Mc Donalds about two thirds of the way home. We stopped for a bite to eat and got something to drink :) To make it the rest of the way home I had put my purse over the stroller handles and Mike sat on it like a swing. Another reason for a woman to carry a big purse!! I thought it was so funny. The boys were pretty happy as long as Scotty didn't lean his head back on Mike's arms. It was some good exercise. About an hour of walking. We will just have to figure out what to do with the car when Tyler gets home from work. I have faith that we will just go back and it will start. I really don't know why it didn't start before. Hopefully it will all work out.

So now That we are home all day with no plans I am so bored. I can't take it. I'm going crazy. I told Mikey's teacher that I would make them some painting smocks for their class, and I really should spend the day working on that, but I feel too sick to do it. I need something exciting to do.

The best thing I could come up with is blogging about how big the jungle garden is getting. Here is the picture:

 You can't even see the tomato cages any more.
The cucumbers are taking over. They are everywhere.


I think that is a baby cucumber. Not really sure but it's something.


Tomatoes are coming in. These are a big kind of tomato, We have a bunch of cherry tomatoes that have been big like this for about a month, but they are still green.We have a pumpkin plant that has no pumpkins yet. My sister already has big pumpkins so I feel sad about that. There are no peppers or zucchini yet. I don't if I need to do something to make it work. Everything else is doing well.




There is a cherry tree right along the fence line. I want to make cherry pie and cherry jam!! I can't wait for that either!! I think that's all I got for today. Time to make dinner.
