Greetings All!
Despite the best of intentions, here it is...Friday...and I've not posted a single mid-week blog post. For some reason, I cannot consistently seem to make it past my Monday home management posts and I do miss it. 😢
It's been a lusciously cool week...more like fall than summer...but temperatures are creeping back up and it looks like the heat is going to return with a vengence starting tomorrow. It is raining right now.
It's been a busy week. I worked on Monday and, on that same day, our youngest son celebrated his 25th birthday and our eldest daughter and her husband celebrated 18 years of marriage. It was a good day!
We voted on Tuesday and discovered our first Geocache...which, even though it was small, was very exciting!
That evening we went out to see our next-to-the-youngest son and his wife's new place (which is absolutely beautiful!!!) and celebrate granddaughter, Ruth's, 5th birthday. It was another good day!
Wednesday I put up peppers; today I need to put up tomatoes.
Yesterday I met our eldest daughter-in-law for our quarterly breakfast date and, in the afternoon, I got together with my BFFF. Both of these sweet ladies remembered my birthday early and both blessed me with, among other things, the same pretty pumpkin! What's even funnier is, I had blessed my daughter-in-law with the same pumpkin in a different color! So funny! What are the chances??? LOL! 😆
Today is our oldest son's birthday. After I get done putting up tomatoes, I plan on dropping a card off and visiting with him for a bit. Then, I will probably stop in and enjoy a cup of tea with my eldest daughter. After that I plan on coming home and preparing for tonight's movie night.
I mentioned on Monday that we were dog-sitting for a friend. Having Ruby here has been a complete joy! John and I have had more fun playing frisbee with her and she's so smart! She's an amazing dog and we will miss her greatly when she goes home.
Well, I better get going. It was nice spending some time with you this morning, but I better get started on those tomatoes. You all have a nice day and a great weekend, and blessings to all!
Until next time...

DeleteSounds like a busy week but lots of fun and adventures mixed in. Funny about the pumpkins! I haven't even thought of pumpkins or fall yet, but I would sure love to see it come early! Here in Florida it is a bit different than the rest of the country, but we still celebrate it and enjoy what cooler temperatures we can get. Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great week, Pamela, and, yes, the whole pumpkin thing was hilarious! Thanks for the Happy Birthday wishes! I'm looking forward to it! Blessings! <3
