Isn’t it weird that weeks with a holiday can seem longer
than regular weeks? I wonder why that is? For me, it’s probably because I just
naturally sink into extra sloth when I have a day off and it’s hard to pull
myself back up into work mode. (To be fair, I actually did a lot of housework
on Monday, but I did it veerrryyyy slowly.)
Sunday,
September 1st
First time I did my new hair (why yes, I did not wash my
hair from Tuesday until Sunday).
Monday,
September 2nd
Holiday lunch – watermelon (not sashimi, as someone on
Facebook thought), Cheetos, and the latest Louise Penny book.
Finished!
The house across the street is for rent, so I wandered over
to check it out. Found this label in the driveway, which made me laugh.
Tuesday,
September 3rd
Another week, another pair of Feryl Designs earrings. I’m
starting to run out of room on the nifty jewelry board I created!
I took in a couple of paintings to add to the wall at work. I
know the calendar doesn’t fit in, but it makes me smile & there’s not
really anywhere else to put it.
Wednesday,
September 4th
Dr. M had a doctor’s visit. As
he said on Facebook: "Routine checkup...in pretty good shape for the shape I’m
in. More than I can say for the poor little farmer in yon dell."
Thursday,
September 5th
Flowers…
Friday,
September 6th
Comparison shot from when we first got this hanging basket and
now. The petunia is long gone, but the coleus is pretty darned happy!
Saturday,
September 7th
The morning glories are still so pretty.
Went out looking for communion bread & found this. I
think it should work just fine, right?
I’m watching the Braves play while I write this & I have
to say that it has been VERY exciting lately. I have high hopes for their post
season, although I’ll be sad when baseball is over. Baseball being over will
mean that it’s well into fall & that means that we’re well on our way to
winter. And just like that I’m all grumpy. How about you – are you looking
forward to fall?
I felt the same way when I worked in the real world - short weeks feel longer. Watermelon and Cheetos - the lunch of champions - yep, that sounds right. Pretty flowers at your house.
ReplyDeleteooo, fun new layout for your blog. and you eat the weirdest stuff. not that the individual components are weird, it's how you combine them but I believe I've mentioned that before.
ReplyDeleteFall? Yes! I'm really tired of dealing with the lawn. Even though the kids now cut the front and back yards dealing with the rest of the property like trimming is a pain. Looking forward to the leaves falling and being blown down the street.
ReplyDeleteBut the World Series is the end of October and with any luck the last game will be the day before Halloween. And then it's no time until Thanksgiving and before you blink, it will be Christmas. In January you have my permission to be grumpy, but not now.
ReplyDeleteLove the new layout for your blog!
ReplyDeleteI love fall. It's cozy and beautiful. And it holds off winter just a bit longer without the heat and humidity of summer. And it means apples--really good apples--and butternut squash.
(Hey--pretty intrusive photographing those bugs in an Intimate Moment on that orange flower. Mind your own beeswax!)
Yeah...love the new look on your blog!
ReplyDeleteI could never get away without washing my hair for that long. Mine would look like someone had taken me - while I was sleeping - and used my head to mop the kitchen floor with it. Sadly, my kitchen floor would NOT look like that. You did a great job "doing" your hair - do you use a flat iron?
I'm with you on the short weeks - by the time you fit five days' worth of work into four, you're just plum exhausted!
Now, if my infusions were cannabis infused... I'm sure i'd feel so much better :)
ReplyDeleteI think your work wall is very attractive. Maybe a small desk calendar? And, yes, the flowers are gorgeous but I believe the photographer caught the bug couple in flagrante delicto.
