Carnival of Absurd

It's non-stop absurd around here these days.

1.  I had the bee-whisperer come over last week, and she checked on my hive (thriving!) and told me she definitely wants to try to move them.  We picked a location, which, suprisingly, turned out to be in my front yard.  I have to move the green bin (where they are currently living) over to the new location, so that she can get them into the hive.  Except I can only move them one foot at a time.  So, every evening, I scootch my green bin one foot closer to where the bees will eventually be permanently housed.  It's roughly 30 yards to the new spot.  I'll be inching over there for a month and a half!

Absurd.

2.  A few months ago, I was telling you about Scotty's imaginary friend, Jeffy.  Jeffy is still around, except I might have to put him on a timeout.  It seems Jeffy just spent seven months in jail, for not taking care of his apartment.  Also?  Jeffy has a girlfriend.  Is it just me, or does Jeffy sounds like real trouble?

Absurd.

3.  I emptied out the boys' bedroom for the annual school's-going-to-start-so-let's-have-a-great-year-people hose down.  It involves clothing inventories, toy purging, furniture swapping, and, it seems, completely destroying the rest of my house.

Absurd.

And you?

  1. I am loving the new picture on the top of your blog. What could be cuter than kids on a beach? Hope your bees do not get offended that you are moving them:)

  2. @Michelle ~ HA!

    @Betty ~ Thank you! I love all the pictures from that whole weekend. I'm biased. :) So far, the bees are not mad at me. Fingers crossed! According to the bee whisperer, there is always the chance that they'll sweep up and fly away. In which case, they'll all die. Not cool.
