You would think that having my husband gone for a week would mean, I get a mini vacation or time to relax. Nope! Relaxing isn't something that I ever seem to be able to do. If there is something to be done, I have to get it done before I can sit down. And for some reason there always seems to be something to do.
While Andy was gone, I ran numerous errands, planned and attended the Young Men and Young Women's Annual Lake Trip, I taught Andy's Sunday School Class, went to the gym a few times, worked 40 hours, got a cortisone shot in my foot (that was super painful, don't ever get one), and I canned like a crazy person. I canned tomato salsa, fire-roasted tomatillo salsa, pickles, pickled beets. I also shredded and froze a lot of squash and zucchini to be added to spaghetti sauce later this year. When it was all said and done I may have got 7 hours of sleep each night-- it was CRAZY!
I plan on sharing my canning recipes soon.
