Blueberries and Bumps in the Road

Stay Committed to your Decisions,but stay Flexible to your Approach."
 My First Blueberry Bush....

It is Monday. Not Sunday..Not a day of rest rather a day of routine and running around to do. But quickly I was thrown a curve ball. The little man wasn't feeling to good. Sick Day just trumped my agenda and Honey- Do list. 
I was going through my list and diagnosing the damage and realized it was all still workable. I made a few adjustments and started knocking things off my list with the little man trailing along. He did not have a fever but had stomach cramps. We stayed local to check things off. 
My new blueberry bush was a high priority on my agenda. We had purchased it on Saturday and I really needed to get it planted. Andy loves blueberries. I don't think this little bush will yield enough blueberries to suffice Andys summer craving but it seemed like fun to try.
