Tackle It Tuesday.....

...or shall I say, get tackled by Tuesday?

I live on a farm, most of you know that. But do you know what that means in late May? That means HAY! Yes, that's right....the hay days of summer are officially here! From daylight til dark....from can to can't....hay, hay, hay.

My husband takes off the last 3 weeks of May from his public job to get everything ready and then cut, rake, tetter, & bale hay. I have no idea how many acres of hay we actually have to do, but I know it's alot! And my part officially begins today. I will be either raking the hay, or driving the accumulator, which pulls the bales into groups of 8 to be loaded onto the trailers, or sometimes I get to drive the truck pulling the trailers ( I did run over one of our helpers feet last year, so this may not be a possibility this year...we'll see!)

At any rate, I'll be tackling it in the hay field today......Happy Hay Days to all!

Tackle it Tuesday

.....I would truly like to begin this post with a resounding whine. A big, fat, moany kind of whine!......why, do you ask? Let me tell you why! Because my tackle it this week involves the fact that my sweet adorable precious baby is just a few weeks from officially becoming a toddler......wait, here it comes.....wwwhhhhiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnne. I just can't even believe how time flies!! Anyway, here goes for my Tackle this Tuesday:

1. Get all clothes 9 months and under out of closet, put into bins and upstairs in storage with 6 month and under stuff.
2. Get infant toys into box and upstairs in storage along with clothes. Birthday is in a couple of weeks and there will be new toys to take up space!

That does it for my "tackle it's" this week! Good luck with your own projects, ladies! To participate in Tackle it Tuesday, head on over to 5 Minutes for Mom!

Now I gotta Tackle it!

....Okay,so who spilled the beans?? Which one of you told my husband about "Tackle it Tuesday"? He thinks it's a fabulous idea! He asked me tonight what I was going to "Tackle" for tomorrow, his suggestion??...The Garage!... My suggestion?? Come back to reality sweetie! That's your mess out there!!

So here's my Tackle it, for this Tuesday!

1. File those papers! You know the ones..the ones from January-Now...yeah! those papers!
2. Plant those plants you've been watering on the back porch. They belong in the ground!!


Okay ladies! My tackle it's are gonna take me all day! So head on over to 5 minutes for mom and take part in Tackle it Tuesday! You know what they say, "Misery loves company"!

That's what I'm sayin'!!

Tackle It!!....How long since you tackled, Ladies??

I just stumbled upon this fabulous idea: Tackle It Tuesdays! Boy, do I ever have a list of tackle it's!! You are supposed to list the things you want to motivate yourself to do by outing them to the world, well, the blog world. Then go over to 5 Minutes for Mom and link up! Easy enough, right? The hard part will be the actual "tackle it" part! However, I did get a bit of motivation this morning. I rolled out of bed at oh, lets say 9 ish (just in case my husband reads this!) to read an email from my friend, Lisa (aka the preachers wife) to say she was coming by about 11:30.

There were literally no clean flat level spaces in my entire house. I. Am. Not. Kidding. I think it was the worst my house had ever been! But I at least got the main living space clean in that hour or so! Whew! I told her she should tell me she's coming back tomorrow and that she wants to see the whole house, and see if that gets my rear in gear!

Okay, so tackle it Tuesday:

*Fold all laundry (if it's dirty, wash it first!)
*Water all plants (if you don't water them, you'll have to trash them, which reminds me,)
*Take out trash....all of it!
*Clean toilets and tubs
*Vaccum your vehicle out!

Okay, so...I'm off to tackle my list! I did not put my closet on this list, because I have stuff to do before next Thursday (which is how long it would take me to clean the closet, AND finish my list!)
