Welcome to the Weekend

The storms I forecast here arrived overnight, but I expect more tomorrow night (upper 80’s the next two days with a cold front moving in tomorrow night = storms).

Each morning over the last 2-3 days, I’ve felt a little better, and although I’m a good ways from being back to 100%, at least I’m making improvement.  What’s really strange with this bronchitis is that I’ve got joint pain (shoulder, hands, feet). 

I’d really like to get out and work in the yard.  DH picked up the replacement plant for one of my azaleas that didn’t survive last summer … I’m anxious to get it planted.  The other isn’t in stock this spring, so I’d like to get to the nursery and find something else to plant.  I’m also anxious to spread more mulch as well as expand some of the landscaping along the east side of the house.  I love working out in the yard … getting my hands in the soil, soaking up the warm sunshine, enjoying the beautiful results.

Instead I’ll take it easy today … do some reading and work on the puzzle we’ve got going (it’s turning out to be quite a toughie!). 

Tomorrow I have church (I’m in the toddler nursery again) followed by a baby shower for my friend/neighbor Lois … her daughter is having Lois’ first grandchild.  What an exciting time for them!

Even though it’s not a terribly exciting weekend, it’s going to be a good one.  Hope yours is a good one, too.

  1. You rest up so you can enjoy the shower tomorrow. No rain here but temps in the high's 60's so we are having a lot of melting! I am raking around the snow pile! Enjoy your weekend.

  2. Continue to take it easy and hopefully you'll be "good as new" in a few more days. May tomorrow be a beautiful Lord's Day for you.

  3. It sounds like a great weekend. Sorry about the joint pain along with the bronchitis. Have fun at the baby shower. The 80's sound pretty good.
    We went out and got some new plants today.

  4. I think it sounds like the perfect weekend!! You'll have to take a picture of the puzzle when you finish it; intriguing to know what makes it be a toughie one!! I'm glad you are feeling a bit better!! I think it is neat you like to work outside like that, it must be neat to be out there enjoying the fresh air, etc working with your hands and letting your mind wander to whatever you might wonder about; hope you'll be able to do that soon!!

I am SO glad you stopped by! No proving that you're a robot here ... I want to hear what you have to say! ;-)
