LAST WEEK RECAPPED

Last week went by way too quickly, AGAIN!

On Saturday we went to the Farmer’s Market and couldn’t find a thing on my list. I ended up at the butcher and Farm Stand instead. Then we went to lunch at a favorite brewery for pizza and beers – well hubby had beer 🙂

I have to wonder if it will always feel like this! I spent most of Sunday doing some organizing and sorting for donation and getting back on track to get caught up on blogs, hopefully by tonight 🙂

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

THE WEATHER OUTSIDE

The weekend was pretty nice, actual shirt sleeve weather, but that was seriously short lived. We’re back to cooler weather and rain to begin the week. Temps will be in the low 50’s during the day and high 30’s and low 40’s at night.

TO DO, APPOINTMENTS, DVR/TV & PROJECTS

THIS WEEK’S TO DO LIST, PROJECTS, TRAVEL, APPOINTMENTS, MENUS & DVR/TV

LAUNDRY & CLEANING I have a load of towels as well as hubby’s stuff.
GROCERIES & ERRANDS not much other than a pedicure and my normal shopping this week…
RECIPE RESEARCH & MENU PLANNING I’m starting on a new pile of recipes to sort through…
DVR/TV We watched the NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM trilogy on Saturday night. And we started binge watching DROP DEAD DIVA after we finished YOUNG SHELDON as we go to sleep at night.
THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY spring baby animals… beautiful spring blooms… fluffy clouds in a beautiful spring sky… clear evenings where you can see all the stars…

This week’s favorite photos are a bit of a revival for a couple days of the warmer weekend weather and of the new goslings at the pond. Aren’t they adorable?
