Short week ahead

Monday morning always sneaks up on me. I suspect it's because it doesn't take me long to fall into "weekend mode" and somehow I start feeling as if my leisurely days will last forever, but come Monday morning, there is always a rude awakening.

Our weekend was busy, but good, full of projects we were trying to squeeze in before the sunny sky turned to a rainy one. Mulching and mowing. Sweeping and garden planning. My first pedicure of the season. Errand running. Grocery shopping. A walk around the neighborhood. The admiring of spring blossoms and blooms. Lots and lots of laundry. Some knitting. Some reading. Some movie watching.

The good news is that this is a short week for us. Both Cynical and I have Friday off. Being as it's Spring Break in most of fair Kentucky, the phone is ringing a lot less and it's eerily quiet at work. That also means no evening meetings or volunteer activities. The week, it seems, is mine.

And in even better news, we have managed to plan a little visit from Pilot and Needlefingers. They'll be coming Friday and staying Sunday until we all must part to spend Easter with our families. I have been busy printing out geocaching information, figuring out some movies for us to see and planning a menu. I suspect that colder temperatures might impede much caching, but it's worth a shot.

It's nice to see someone else with an extended readership! You have a very involved and ironic writing style. I like it.

I was simply trolling through a few random blogs and came across yours. Funny how reading about other peoples lives is so interesting even when they don't have much going on out of the ordinary.

So nice to read that you've got a good week ahead of you and an even better weekend. Gotta love it when everything seems to fall into place. Especially when all the other times things just don't seem to ever go right. So hurray for the good weeks!!

I like how you take walks. You're always walking and admiring things. I should do that more often. Or...at all.

I Love, love, love that photo!

It looks like it could be an illustration in a book I'd enjoy reading.
