Good Morning dear friends. I hope you had a wonderful week. It sure seems like the past week sped by! I think it was the holiday being on a Tuesday that messed me up the most! While I didn’t get as much done as I hoped, I did get done what HAD to be done 😀 And then we were able to spend yesterday at 2 different picnics to relax.

It’s been quite warm, but only for part of the day. We are still getting some beautiful cool ocean breezes of an evening though. Levi’s and a comfy paisley blouse are what I’m wearing today as I have a couple meetings.

A couple sips of coffee with yogurt, granola and blueberries.

THIS WEEK’S TO DO LIST, PROJECTS & APPOINTMENTS

LAUNDRY & CLEANING / PAPERWORK, PHONE CALLS, PROJECTS & TRAVEL/ GROCERIES & ERRANDS /RECIPE RESEARCH & MENU PLANNING We’re still working on the water issue and hoping to get to the bottom of things yet this week after the concrete cutting guy digs up an area around the main. I have a few other errands to do this week, but the grocery shopping is done and the menus are made.

WHAT’S ON THE DVR/TV

We didn’t have much on the DVR to watch last week, but we did spend the 4th relaxing and watching old movies – The Back to the Future trilogy, Dante’s Peak, Independence Day.

I’ve been working so much that I’ve been tired enough I haven’t been getting any reading done at night. I’m STILL hoping that this is the week to pick up with #6 A Vineyard Vow from the series I’ve been reading.

Our last stop yesterday was at a friend’s mother’s house for dinner. It’s a beautiful setting and was so relaxing as well as peaceful. It’s on a hilltop with a great view and many, many trees. There was also a cute little pond where we took these pictures – one of me with my friend Dana and one with Dana and her sister who was visiting, but left this morning for home in Idaho. We stopped and fed the leftovers to her goats on the way home.
