If you are wondering why there hasn't been a post lately, it's due to great weather here. Sunshine, high 70's meant motorcycle rides. I could not, as hard as I tried, get my husband to work on the to-do list.
One ride was to our grandson's birthday party. The other to deliver a foldable lawn chair to our youngest. She was set up at a pop up show for a new store in town, to represent the salon. She did not have a chair, so my husband said he'd load up on the back of the bike, and yes he did ha ha!
Today I am joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.
The weather . . .
Awesome weather for the first few days this week, high 70's again, and then rain returns mid-week, followed by the temperature dropping again.
As I look outside my window . . .
Leaves are everywhere. I'm charging the leaf blower as I type to get them off the porches before the rain cements them to the pavement.
Right now I am . . .
Making another pot of coffee.
Thinking and pondering . . .
We are thinking of visiting a town one hour away, to check out a store that carries discounted items. I heard they carry flooring and items we may be able to get for the living room at a discounted price.
How I am feeling . . .
Tired. We both didn't sleep well last night for some reason. We both are not ready to tackle a Monday.
On the breakfast plate . . .
Leftover omelet my husband made us on Sunday morning.
What I am wearing . . .
T-shirt and garden work pants. Tackling that job first today (after I get the laundry going and the dishwasher running)
On my reading pile . . .
On my TV . . .
We watched The Watcher, and were disappointed at the ending of it. Now it's whatever is on TV, if it's even on.
On the menu . . .
-leftovers
-on cooler days, a new butternut/kale soup
-salsa verde chicken tortilla casserole
-leftovers
Looking around the house . . .

From the camera . . .
Sunday morning sunrise. It was not as pink as usual, but pretty.
Devotional . . .
Still can't find my devotional, but found a book with 365 days of "Brighteners."
"A good friend will sharpen your character, draw your soul into the light, and challenge your heart to love in a greater way."
