Weekend Wrap Up...on Monday

Yeah, I know...

Had an amazing time with Little B. He was a riot and played hard. He crawled up on my lap Saturday evening and promptly fell asleep after a day of having me time how fast he can run, blowing absolutely everything with the leaf blower, sidewalk chalk, flower seed planting, and running around. He's such a smart and funny kid. 

We managed to get two flower beds cleaned out and I managed to get poison ivy. Yeah, I didn't realize you could still get it if the stuff is brown and dead looking. We'll see if That Man gets it. He was in it far more than I was. 

That is all...

Behave! 

Feel Good Friday!

Let's just get to the list...

1. 65*! And potentially up to 72* on Sunday. I'll take it. 

2. Happy First Day of Spring!

3. Living through the week. This was a rough one!

4. Little B time this weekend. He's been begging for a "Nana/Pappy Weekend" since before Christmas. This was the first weekend we could work it out for all parties. He's so funny. Today is his mom's birthday and he wrote her a card and said "i'm going to miss you when I go to Nana and Pappy's but I also want to go to Nana and Pappy's." 

5. Something easy for dinner. I'm not sure what it'll be yet. Little B runs on chicken nuggets, french fries, and yogurt, so he's easy (and yeah, we get the chicken nuggets with veggies in them. He loves them.)

6. The part for our again-broken oven due to arrive tomorrow. This is the second part in less than a year. Oy. 

7. The skid plate for my Jeep being done. Now we just need to find one of the parts we need. We're working on it. 

That's all I have for now...

Behave!

Mother Nature is Whacked...

What in the world is going on with this weather? 

Cold. 

Rain. 

Wind. 

Oh it's 63 degrees!

Wind.

Rain. 

SNOW?

Yikes. 

Behave! 

Weekend Wrap Up

Mother Nature still isn't cooperating. She's hateful and mean. I know it's only mid-March and things are always fickle at this time, but I also know I'm not the only one devastated by the fact it was so nice for a few days and now it's gloomy and cold again. 

Anyway. 

It's been a mostly productive weekend. 

We had a nice dinner and conversation with friends last night. 

The snowmen/winter stuff has been removed from my front porch. The Easter egg order has been submitted for K5. Some plants have been cleaned up. Shopping, car part ordering, laundry, sheet washing, blah blah blah, have been done. 

I also took a nap. 

And wrote. 

Though I did not sleep in. I tried. But weird dreams and an old dog who didn't want to stay in bed prevented that. (hence the nap)

Breakfast for dinner tonight. I'm glad I'm not the only one who's been craving pancakes! 

We do have some plants popping up outside. That's a happy sight. 

And that is all... Tomorrow we're back to the grind. Joy. 

Behave! 

Feel Good Friday

I guess? 

Let's see if we can cobble together a list...

1. The weekend. Honestly, I've been away the past two weekends, so a weekend mostly at home sounds lovely. We do have plans but nothing too dramatic. 

2. With #1 comes sleeping in. Or at least I hope so. 

3. My dryer is fixed. 

4. The few nice days we had. But now...yuck. Mother Nature is off her meds...

That's all I have at the moment...

Behave! 

Too Much Chaos...

I wish this week would end already... I know tomorrow is Friday so we're close, but I just want to pull the covers over my head and hide in my warm bed.

Writing has sucked this week. It's been one thing after another but mostly my own fault for being tired, sad, and tired. 

Everything just feels so chaotic. Everything. Everywhere. All the time. 

Hopefully I'll be back tomorrow with some kind of Feel Good post...

Behave! 

Beautiful Monday!

Oh my goodness! It's gorgeous outside! The sun is back and it's warm! 

I do hate the time change though. I mean...

That Man and I had a lovely weekend away. We had lunch before checking in, hit the grocery store, and immediately changed into our comfy pants upon arrival. And we stayed like that all weekend. It was gloomy and a little chilly, but we had a fire and the creek was amazing to watch. 

We kept our phones on silent and away from us and just enjoyed. I didn't take my computer or anything. We had a wonderful dinner Saturday night and watched a ton of movies. Some we'd seen before and others we hadn't. 

Like I said, it was a good weekend. 

Then back to the grind. My dryer is down again. The belt broke. That Man wrote it down somewhere but I think I might have tossed the paper at some point, so now he has to take it apart to get the number. Our clothes are drying on a rack in the dining room. Yay. Ha! 

Our old gal isn't doing so hot. I don't think it's time yet, but think it won't be too long. She still has her spark, but it's dimming. I hope she tells us when she's done. The thought of her suffering is too much to bear, but so is the thought of her not being around anymore. Our hearts are going to break into a million pieces. She's the best dog ever. 

Behave!
