Monday, Catch Up Day

Happy Monday morning to y'all.  Hoping yours is as beautiful as mine.  Any morning with blue skies and no rain is beautiful.  My NC family and friends experienced some snow falling on Saturday.  What a treat.  Snow and not on a school day.  Yahoooooo!  We have enjoyed a few days of bright sunshine.  I can say yahooooooo to that.  Supposed to have clouds and possible showers this afternoon.  I will be sure to get my walk in this morning.  We have ice cream social this afternoon.  Rain or shine.  Last week it was raining with mushy ground to walk on and still had a successful ice cream social.  As they say, the ice cream must go on.  Well, maybe they don't say that.  No that's, the mail must go on.  Unless its Saturday.  ha ha   

Being catch up day, I will start with Friday.  Lori and I had a girls day out with lunch and a movie.  We laughed a lot and cried a little.  I cried a little, Lori a lot.  Friendship is sooooo wonderful.  Just makes one happy inside and out.  We started with lunch at a restaurant that specializes in fried green tomatoes and their secret recipe for SWAMP SOUP.  Who would ever think I would try anything with a name like that?  In this new life style I'm game for new everything.  Oh, you are asking whats in it and how does it taste.  Well, it is good.  Have had it twice now.  It has collard greens, small white beans, maybe great northern, and black beans and some kind of sausage.  And it does look like swamp water.  Might even smell a little...not appetizing.  I will have to say if you can pass all that, it is yummmmmy.  The only description for the fried green tomatoes is, out of this world.  Next came the movie Safe Haven with Julieann Hough.  Strictly a chick flick.  It was a peaceful, almost calm couple hours of entertainment.  A pleasurable way to spend time with a dear friend. 

Saturday, let me see, I think that was a heavy chore day.  Also had a fresh up course on crocheting.  Hopefully I can do that in the evening and not fall asleep.  Has only worked one time.  I have a bad habit of that, then have a hard time sleeping through the night.  But one out of two nights is not bad.  I will improve.

Sunday, cooked a big breakfast for Tim, church and out for lunch.  Came home, sat in the sun and crocheted for a couple hours.

Now, it's Monday morning, after my blog, will get my walk in.  My girls are out now.   Looks like I will do it alone.  But that's ok.  Music in my ears and the sun in my face, love it.  I really wanted to get my note out to y'all early.  Laundry will be after my walk.  Then cleaning, by then, lunch.

Will close for now...more to come, when it comes.
