LAST WEEK RECAPPED
GOOD MORNING I hope you’ve had a wonderful week. Half of July is done and over. Can you believe that????? I just have to say this so please forgive me?
When I was at Marshalls the other day they were putting out sweaters and jackets. I just CAN’T believe how quickly time is flying by!!!!!!
MONDAY~FRIDAY Long story short we didn’t get to go on our trip 🙁 Took my car in for the oil change and tire rotation only to find out that we had a problem with the serpentine belt and they couldn’t get to it until Thursday so we pivoted. We did head up to the next BIG town on Friday and had a great Italian Lunch ad picked up my Hallmark Christmas ornament order.
SATURDAY & SUNDAY Since we weren’t even supposed to be here we didn’t do any BIG projects. Hubby did fix a sprinkler leak in the back yard and I weeded the garden after we went out to breakfast with friends. There were a lot of events going on around town and the surrounding area… Lavender Festival, Country Fair, Sutherlin Stampede rodeo and parade, Farmer’s Market, Graffiti weekend and car show… and I even got 5 loads of laundry done.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
THE WEATHER OUTSIDE
The weather is supposed to be truly beautiful again this week. Lows in the 50’s and highs in the high 80’s, but not getting truly warm until 3ish in the afternoon.

It was a slow picture week. But, I LOVE this persistent Johnny Jump Up that’s fighting to live between two pavers. Hubby keeps him watered for me.

My dear friend, I’m sorry to hear about the car, it’s always something with these cars isn’t it? Curt and I were talking about this not too long ago, they don’t make cars like they used to, all the old cars my parents had ran for years and years and years.
I just placed a Pampered Chef order with you. I love PC and haven’t bought anything from them in years, so really happy to have the chance again.
Have a blessed week friend ♥
YEP, cars can be the bane of my existence some days, but I always try to stay positive and believe it happened for a reason so I would be here to help with something for my mom.
Thank you so much for the order! I hope your things arrive quickly and you enjoy them as much as I do their products. Have a great rest of the week.!
Glad you got to enjoy your weekend even though it didn’t go as planned.
The life hack is too funny.
Have a good week
Thank you! I believe in pivoting when things don’t go exactly as planned, so we always have fun 🙂 Hope the rest of your week is great!
Hello dear Tamy!
So sorry about the car. But it sounds like you did make the most of the weekend!
I hope that it’s a quick and easy fix.
I just ordered from another friends pampered chef or I would. I love a lot of their things.
Love all the fun inspiration you always share.
Blessings on your week. xo
Well it isn’t quick LOL, but I do believe in pivoting and trying to make the best out of everything. 🙂 Thank you! I love pampered chef, so no matter who you ordered from, ENJOY! 🙂 Blessings for a great rest of the week.
