Look! It's Supermom!.....and she's down...but not for long..

While you gals in the U.S. were busy filling your tummies with turkey and all the trimmings, I was doing a LOT of work around here too. I had two full days of freedom this weekend. My children went to a hockey tournament about 3 hours north east of here, and I had the house to myself. They had a wonderful time...My superstar scored three more goals, and he and the girls played in the pool of the hotel, they were excited about a power outage that had the fire trucks come to the hotel to rescue some team mates from the elevator, (apparently a good portion of the town was in the dark for a good hour or more), and an all around happy weekend. I was a bit disappointed that I missed it, as some of my old high school chums had kids playing in the tournament as well and it would have been nice to see them again after all these years, but alas...it was not in the cards. Next time!
What did I do while I was rambling around alone all weekend in my house? Well aside from snuggle around with Miss Pooh (dog)....I was a super busy supermom....at least for a few hours.
What do you think I did?
Put my Tree up? - No...and as a matter of fact I am about a month behind in that area...
Clean out the garage? - Nope!....I sort of did that last week...the rest will wait till after the new year when I put the Christmas stuff back in...(if I ever get it out) lol
Relax in a hot bath with bubbles? - NO!!! who exactly do you guys think I am? lol (that involves sitting still!
Go out with friends? -No, that's next week....
Want a hint????
Okay...I will give you not one...but three!
1.Heart of Bronze
2. Rattan Palm
3. Walnut Grove
Once I have a few shots of this project to share...I absolutely will!
It is a huge undertaking, that I did manage to get more than half way finished the first day, and would have completed and included photos today, but I popped one of my hips out of place moving a very large and heavy object.....and moving, sitting, laying down, standing, or just breathing is quite painful. No worries, this has happened a few times over the last couple of years, a quick trip to the chiropractor and I will be as good as new...and will once again don my supermom cape, and disclose the finished product.
I must sign off now, this position is making me ache a bit....stay tuned, hopefully I will have something to share by Wednesday (if not sooner)!

Oh no! I hope you get feeling better soon. My guess would be that you've been out in the green house doing some fun things! I haven't done Christmas yet either. I wanted it up last weekend so Trav could enjoy it before he leaves in 9 days for two years but it's just been too busy with other things. I may never get mine up either! Take care of yourself. Maybe now would be a good time for that bubble bath you didn't take, lol! Cindy

I wish you a speedy recovery, and can't wait for the reveal.
I hope your hip is feeling better! I know I get all sorts of ideas about moving things when no one is here to help me. I can't wait to see your project.
Great job to your son, I bet he was excited about his goals.

Hey supermom!! I can't imagine what you are working on now. Keep us posted, and take care of yourself. Sally
Tamara Jansen said…
You POPPED your HIP out?! That's terrible! I hope you're feeling better soon.

Now, none of those 3 things you mentioned are names I've ever heard but I'm going to assume they are horticulturally related. Just not something we've ever grown in our greenhouse :)
Dirt Princess said…
I know what it is!!! I won't tell!
Bonnie said…
I can't wait to see your project. Hope you are feeling better.
SmilingSally said…
OUCH! You poor thing. That's going to take some time to heal. Be careful.
Lona said…
See you are not indestructible Super Mom, you poor thing. You take care and get better.

Expectation is an awful thing ;-) I wonder what you have been up to?
Betty said…
Moderation my dear Glenda...moderation. Never mind not even with my boots could I convince you of that! lol
Try to take it easy, okay?
I hope you feel better soon! A popped hip sounds awfully painful.
Please do be careful with your back or you will pay for it dearly in later years. I am! I still want to move things too heavy for me..but I've paid the price and cannot anymore.
I can't even imagine what your project is...but I cannot wait to find out. NO clue here! :)
I shall return!
Hugs,
Mona
