it was the first
true friday adventure
i have had
in a while…
there were doughnuts,
dirt roads, diet coke in a can,
singing loud,
snoopy socks, a good book
and a bit of exploration/random driving…
is everyone like this?
or am i broken a little bit? heh.
this is how many directions i have gone in today:
(to be precise, within the last 2 hours)::
making a to do/goal list for next week
which led to making a spring bucket list
including a possible large scale chalk on the street project,
planting marigolds with the tomatoes
should i repaint the raised beds
oh i need to get a ladder so that i can touch up the
paint on the house
so i should get some more gravel
for the walkway
which led to googling
how to make my own concrete
and then wondering when do strawberries
come out and oh!
i should build a small greenhouse
OR a greenhouse/TREEHOUSE
and i need to get rid of all the winter
coats i didn’t wear this year
is it cold out now, maybe i should go for a walk
but if i build a bird feeder can you even still feed the
birds or is that not allowed but i could
turn that green birdcage into a little dollhouse
kind of thing and where did i put the lights
that i bought for the sesame street lego
and oh! could i try embroidery?
also why do i feel like i am getting a headache.
maybe i’ll take a nap.
it’s not just me, right?
this is normal brain traffic, i think.
or just nod halfheartedly and i’ll
move on to something else shiny in
a minute or two.
friday i'm in love...
and it’s friday again.
this week flew by.
i spent a lot of time in the office
instead of working from home
which has it’s own set of pros and cons.
mostly it was a very busy week.
but i got to go for
a beautiful evening beach walk
with a friend
and saw the sunset…
and spent an evening at the
community school banquet
and that was so fun.
if you have not tried community school,
you totally should.
it was a great way to get out of the house
one night a week in the dreaded depths of winter
which is when i really struggle to
connect with people…
i learned a little macrame, had a lot of laughs
and got to enjoy a rousing sing a long
of “wasn’t that a party” at the banquet…
(along with delicious lemon pie)
and won a cat hammock bed! :)
{sidenote:: it’s amazing that your
brain will remember every single word
and inflection of a song you haven’t heard
in decades}
FRIDAY I’M IN LOVE::
♥ oh my heart….i love all of these.
♥ i have read this over and over.
♥ this was mesmerizing…his hair.
♥ my latest IPSY haul
♥ my perpetual candy jar
♥ some time spent at the little blue desk experimenting
happy spring even though we
came into it with a bit of a storm
and a fresh a layer of snow all over…
but the days are brighter and longer
and maybe a touch warmer.
that’s enough for me. ♥
whatcha readin'? {goal 40::book 4}
And yes, I am back to the YA
side of the fence…
reconnecting with my inner 13 year old
who can now
READ ANYTHING SHE WANTS
and doesn’t have to rely on
what is only available in the
MCS library OR
the bookmobile
especially after being banned
from both
for not returning books
(I have good intentions but
a long history of never returning a book…
don’t lend me any…heh…
plus…shhhhhhh, don’t tell anyone but…
I fold the corners…)
Sidenote…thinking about this
really makes me wanna read all the
Sweet Valley High books that I
missed out on back then. Heh.
So anyway…
what can I say about this?
It was a fun, feel good
quick read that made me happy.
If you like feel good make you happy books
that don’t require a lot of thinking,
then you should read it too! :)
I’d lend you my copy but I already lost it
plus…you know….the pages are all bent and foldy….

NEXT UP:: LIFE AFTER LIFE- KATE ATKINSON
friday i'm in love...sorry, not a St Patrick's edition...cause I'm lame.
I know this should somehow
be a St Patrick’s day edition
but instead, I
HAVE
to tell you about the
frigging amazing
homemade flakies I got from
sweet’ems bake shop!!!!!!!
These were literally too die for
and I looked forward to picking up
this order all week…
my week was sleepy and stressy,
time change killed me,
work is insanely busy
and I just can’t keep up
in anything that I am doing…
house, work, exercise, consignments…
but these little sweet delights
made
up
for
everything.
♥
Look at allllllll that lemony goodness
dripping out …and that flaky flaky-ness.
Sooooo good.
OTHER THINGS I AM LOVING ON A FRIDAY
♥ murmurations. always, always, always with the murmurations
♥ that Sunny’s Dairy Bar commented on my
little salty chip watercolor on FB, heehee.
(and to say that they loved the doodle,
not to threaten to sue me for copyright, heh)
♥ accidental hearts….
and in the spirit of St Patrick’s,
I can only offer this:
