sorry - I've been procrastinating on the exercises!!

but, I did do some gardening and picked pickles (okay, cucumbers) all week ... and today, I canned pickles for the FIRST time!!

it was so much excitement: 2 qts and 12 1/2 pints of dill slicers - that I had to take a power nap!! (which I rarely do!!)

I am pretty proud of myself - now I hope they turn out!! get to find out in 3 days!
