No politics this week. It is
almost 5:00 on Sunday afternoon and I really want to take a nap. This shall be
short & to the point. (Two notes: 1. I will not take a nap. 2. This will
not be short & to the point.)

Seen around the yard –
azaleas, morning glories, and wildflowers.

There is a squishable bag zipped
inside this penguin, but it has a secondary job these days.

I made this crazy thing to
give away, but I finished it the week before the shutdown & then felt weird
about giving it to anyone. So the other week I toted it into the office – it shall
be my office blankie.

Dr. M posted this picture on
the socials & I really have no comment.

This week’s tower of food. I
ate half today & half on Friday. The note says to remember grapes & I
did!

I finished this audiobook today. SO GOOD! 100%
recommend – especially the audio version. That’s my cheesy grin because I was
so pleased with it.

Your weekly progress photo.
I don’t know if I’ll be able to post another one next week – it’s taking longer
to make my way around the edges now. Well, I guess I could post one even if it’s
only partway done. I’m not the boss of me! Wait…
I’ve had a good weekend. Got
the house cleaned yesterday & all the laundry done. Played on my iPad.
Crocheted. The Braves won. Saw my dad & Sue briefly today (she’s having
back surgery next Friday, so good thoughts please!). How was your weekend?
I love all your beautiful flowers, your hardworking penguin, and especially the beautiful blanket you made. Your food tower is great too. Looks like it was a nice week! :)
ReplyDeleteI feel like this post WAS more brief than usual. You did NOT mess around.
ReplyDeleteGood idea with your penguin (although you still have to sanitize his beak, I guess).
I had a work blanket, too. A student made it for me, one of those knotted fleece projects. It was cow print, and I loved it. I still have it. An office blanket comes in handy!
I wish I could have an office blankie. That sounds so cozy!
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a cucumber. Ahem.
That afghan is so pretty, and so is that collage of you flowers at the top. I keep telling myself to enjoy them while we have them.
ReplyDeleteHow long will it take you to sew those together?
ReplyDeleteMy weekend: watched some of the Indy 500, lots of crashes but no one died or was seriously injured; also watched Dustin Johnson running away with the golf tournament - amazing - it finished this morning with him winning with a score of 30 under par and a victory by 11 strokes! Haven't been watching the Diamondbacks this year but they just lost 2 straight to the Giants so I guess I haven't missed anything.
ReplyDeletemy weekend was so boring I can't remember what I did. maybe because I didn't do anything.
ReplyDeleteWhat is with the penguin? I tried to figure out what it's meaning is, but I couldn't. As for the weekend? It was mostly hurricane prep, an assortment of errands and a nice morning down at one of the state parks, where the lotuses are in bloom. It was a gorgeous, if hot, day, and there were a lot of families there with young kids. The lake I chose has a nice path made for bicycles and hikers, and it was great fun.
ReplyDeleteLast weekend was a pain! Its been rainy at my location this summer and along with the repaired sprinkler system my grass grows like wildfire.
ReplyDeleteThe yards need the water to spread out since it had looked bad for years. But now it just takes all of my and the kids time during the weekend keeping it under control.
