The DH is adamant we stay here tomorrow and make sure everything is in order for our end of the wind storm via Irene. I fully intend on using his veto as amunition in a full on guilt trip should Sunday/Monday prove to be just a slight rainstorm! I was really looking forward to seeing/meeting...

Yes. We will be looking to get everything done tomorrow, hopefully, and see how Saturday looks. I'm looking at planters, wind chimes, chicken tractors, buckets, wood piles, fire pit, feeders, kid stuff, lumber stuff, cages...it sounds like a junk yard, but there is the potential of so...
I'm not one to panic over things, but with the impending 70mph wind storms they are predicting here via hurricane Irene...DH and I might need to stay home to batten down the hatches. The wind we get here on a daily basis is nuts (no tree breaks), I don't want to think what those winds will do...
Annie...you ready for the home invasion? I am such a procrastinator...I'm going to leave everything for the last minute! Please email if you need anything...I'll help where I can.
Need a blue NN roo to go with your other NN's featherz? He's so sweet...I don't think I have ever heard him crow (dead serious)....I really want to find a home for him vs sending him to the soup pot.

Heather...I grew up on Greek food...I LOVE spanikopita. It is very easy to make...but the phyllo dough can be tedious to work with. That seems like a great trade! Save me a bite!
I got to thinking...our red cabbage should be ready by the time of the swap...we can make an Oriental Salad, too. (Simple cabbage salad with yummy bits of various things! If ya'll haven't tried it, you'll like it AND want the recipe!)
