Life: It Goes On - May 24

Happy Sunday! We have had so much rain in the past ten days that everything is growing like crazy and looking so lush and beautiful outside. Today is going to be a sunny, warm day, perfect for getting back outside and getting the final touches done in back. I still have some pieces of furniture to paint, some seeds to get planted, and some hosta to get transplanted. Then maybe there will be time to sit and enjoy what we've gotten done. Until I think of another project for out there, anyway! 

Last Week I: 

Listened To: I finished Patrick Suskind's Perfume and got back to John Williams' Stoner. 


Watched: Lots of college baseball and softball, the first episode of season two of Running Point, and a couple more episodes of The Morning Show


Read: I started Peter Geye's A Lesser Light, which I'm really enjoying. Unfortunately, I'm also struggling to make myself pick up a book to read. 


Made: It's burger season so we've had burgers a couple of days this week (mostly because the Big Guy would eat burgers four times a week if I let him), salads, nachos, and pasta. The usual tings to have when you don't really feel like cooking. I hope I get my cooking mojo back one of these days!


Enjoyed: Dinner out with friends Thursday evening and an overnight stay from my brother and SIL on their way up to her hometown.

This Week I’m:  


Planning: Finishing yard projects for the next couple of days and then I really need to get some work done in my office and downstairs. 


Thinking About: Mini-him and Miss C are moving into a house in a couple of months which has me thinking about what I can get out of my house that they might be able to use now that they'll have a third bedroom and a basement. 


Feeling: I wasn't feeling well yesterday and was so hoping that I wouldn't be sick all weekend. I'm happy to find that I'm feeling much better today and much more productive. 


Looking forward to: Another three-day weekend next weekend. 


Question of the week: For Memorial Day, do you visit the graveyards where your family members are buried? We will likely head to Lincoln tomorrow to put flowers on my parents' graves and then head to the cemetery where many of my ancestors were buried for nearly one hundred years.
