weekend thoughts ....

* weekends are to short

* lazy weekends are the best

* I'm happy to have the bedroom christmas decorations all packed up.

* cancer sucks!

* we need to make a living will. I keep reading the updates on my childhood best friend and can't believe everything he is going through. It sounds like he still has a positive attitude so that makes a huge difference for him.

* so not looking forward to Monday morning. Boyd works and I'm supposed to but know I have nothing on my plate for the first two hours.....

* playing ball with the dogs, in the snow while wearing flip flops makes for cold toes. I did try standing in the door way but then kept hitting the garage when flinging.

* after a weekend of DVRd shows and netflix, I'm realizing I am so spoiled and don't really want to watch most shows in real time. I really don't like commercials.

* while totally feeling the need to be crafty, I only accomplished making chocolate chip cookies. I have a lot of quilt ideas floating through my head but nothing is coming together and I feel stuck. As for scrapping, stamping, card making ..... no desire to go there at all. =(

* Saturday afternoon cuddles that turn into unexpected naps are the best.

* Staying up until 2 AM on Friday night to have extra time with Boyd was fun but totally threw me off.

* Can't wait for next weekend when Boyd does NOT have to work for the first time in FIVE weeks! It's been crazy at our house! Which is why I stayed up with him on Friday night.

* my one little word - still haven't decided on One word but totally living the theme.

Jan 4th

It's Jan 4th in Iowa and I'm wearing shorts.

This has been such a crazy year. Very little snowfall. A yard full of brown grass. Temps in the 40s-50s.

Tomorrow I heard it might get to 55 - if my room at work wasn't so cold I'd consider wearing shorts to work. I can't even wear shorts to work in the summer so that's saying something.

The dogs are loving it. I was working in my sewing room and Buddie kept crowding me. He got me to sit down and then he just stood there with his chin on my knee. I finally got to a stopping point and asked if they wanted to go out and he got so excited and ran to the door. Crazy kids!
