Well it is another cool day but there is some sun. That helps. My tax stuff is gathered and I will drop it off today and go for the verdict on Friday. Guess having to pay is better than no income. LOL
Mom's raisin bread is baking in the oven. It is more like a coffee cake or Irish soda bread. It is an old recipe that calls for shortening. I used oil so we will see. I have been thinking of it so went to the recipe and set the raisins to soak last night. Comfort food tastes better with the memories.

Called Molly Maids yesterday and think I may be able to afford a monthly cleaning until I retire. They will come Friday for a first time through cleaning. bedrooms are off limits and that cheapens it. also the scotts people will be heare Friday for a first lawn treatment and hopefully weeds will be kept down, Buddy gets mowing duties this summer. It ran 100 a month last year and ifhe mows I can afford the rest.

Am thinking of a vegetable garden but hate weeding. neighbor rick saif he would rototill for me. I am having shop students build me some have baskets for the fence, think I will fill them with vining plants etc.
