Highlights of the week

Some of the fun/good/happy things that happened this week:

Caden’s buddy, Emily, and her little sister, Sarah, came to visit with their mom, my friend, Lisa. Our bug service came to ensure I don’t have to deal with any creepy-crawlies for the next few months (besides the ladybugs that are making their way into my […]

You’d think this means it’s warm outside. Not so much.

Lousy household chores…

…with results I love:

Sweeping-a pain to do it (sweeping under the table, moving chairs…), but I love that I can walk in my socks and not feel little gritty things for at least 4 hours after sweeping! Â Grocery shopping-I hate putting everything on the conveyor belt, waiting to get my bags packed, unloading […]
