Beans, Beans the musical fruit

OK, so I didn't get everything on my list done....there are still a few dishes left to be washed (less than a sink full), didn't get the house dusted or the kitchen mopped, and the counter tops are still a bit cluttered...BUT (and that's a BIG but) I picked 5 gallons of green beans, snapped, washed, and canned them. Well, most of them. I still have 1/2 gallon left. After snapping it equaled about 2 1/2 gallons...and that packed into 7 quarts. I did have some help. It turns out the FarmHands really like to snap beans.

Still, I feel like that truck came back to finish me off.

Now if only I could settle down to sleep....but that aftershock that jolted the house about 40 minutes ago jolted me too.
