I am feeling like the goddess of accomplishment today

To do:
swim (2050m today)
mail insurance claim cheque
drop off library books, pick up new books
buy school clothes for Geoff
find out if the hardware store in the market can fix my screen (yes!)
laundry (two loads so far, third is in the washer)
make beet pickles (not quite done yet)

Please let the day end now so I can go have a nap!

A&S 50 Challenge is `Challenging`

I feel like I have been completely sideswiped on my challenge recently. I blame the Farmer`s Market. Yesterday it was peach jam. Today it was pickled beets. I still need to pickle my onions and I want to make plum jam. I have also promised to join a friend to make grape, apple and/or crabapple jelly. Mom is sad that she missed out on making the pickled beets, so I have to schedule another session. I have also dried a year`s supply of tomatoes. None of these can be counted towards my challenge.

Tomorrow, I will try to get some beef jerky smoked, if it isn`t raining and I have time after riding lessons and taking ShuLing to Kemptville for her `job`.

Somehow, it has gotten to be the end of the summer and I have yet to drag out my tent to convert it to a Viking A Frame. I need it for camping this weekend. I also need to finish my Merovingian brooch molds so I can send them home with Bre for casting. Kermit Flail!!!
