It's almost June and the lightning bugs are bright in the woods.

As of 11am this morning, my mom is retired. After teaching public school for over three decades, I say she's definitely earned a break. I admit, I was a bit disconcerted when she started singing Alice Cooper on the phone this afternoon.

My husband is all grown up now. He's outside cleaning the gutters. *sniff*

I've nearly got the kitchen tidied. YES! We only bought this house five months ago, it's about time. I should be able to get the floor swept and mopped, though I'm feeling rather woozy, so we'll see whether or not that happens.

I made my first GF cake from scratch yesterday. ( recipe behind here )

Boy is begging for ASSistance, so I'd better get my ass out there.
