Well, I’m late with things again this week. Still wanted to pause from “living la vida loca” and get a post up this week.
Technically, since Spring break starts today (for me, tomorrow for J), I am right on time. Maybe. Ha! Let’s look at the rest of this week with a few glances back and Monday and Tuesday.
Joining in with Sandra over at Diary Of A Stay At Home Mom. So glad she leaves the link up longer for slowpokes like myself!
The Weather
It’s been nice and sunny the past 2 days (a nice change from constant rain last week) but today is a bit chilly! As long as the sun is shining, I won’t complain too much. However, I’m excited for the warmer temperatures to return in time for Easter weekend. It’s 36 degrees out there right now. Ready to leave my seed starter containers out overnight instead of hauling them all inside each evening.
How I Am Feeling This Morning
Not too bad. Last week was rough between not feeling well and being a bit of an emotional mess. I slept better last night and woke up motivated today. Although, is it just me? Why is the best sleep always the 20 minutes when you nod off in the living room while trying so hard to watch something on the television? Actually, woke up last night after that 20 minutes convinced for a few seconds it was the next day already! Ever do that?
On The Breakfast Plate
A blueberry English muffin, coffee, and vitamins.
On My Reading Pile
I’ve stalled out on the Zen and the Art of Housekeeping book though I need to finish, due back at the library in just days. Read a thriller I really enjoyed called Heartbroken by Lisa Unger. Had just finished another of her books, can’t remember the title, read it in the library app that I enjoyed. This one would’ve been a great dark and stormy October night kind of read.
Also, I’m currently reading Sisters First: Stories from Our Wild and Wonderful Life by Jenna Bush Hager. Just finished her most recent book (I enjoyed it a bit more than this one), Everything Beautiful in Its Time: Seasons of Love and Loss. Found it a beautiful tribute to all the grandparents she recently lost. And note, while her parents and paternal grandparents are of course, political figures, this is not in any way a political book.
On My TV
J and I watched The Emperor’s New Groove one day last week. Really enjoyed it! And my husband and I watched an awful movie called Jumper one weekend day. Other than that, the usual: The Voice, The Masked Singer, Captain America and the Winter Soldier, plus a mix of whatever happens to be on each night. Yesterday afternoon, I started watching a documentary about Q on HBO. Rather interesting.
On The Menu
Easy to plan the week’s menu with a 2 day head start!
MONDAY: pork chops on the grill, asparagus, corn on the cob *I worked 8:30-11:30*
TUESDAY: tacos *I worked 8-1*
WEDNESDAY: Salad plus leftovers
THURSDAY: turkey sausages, peppers
FRIDAY: OUT *J has an appt at 4*
From The Camera
Looking Around The House
Spring cleaning needs to happen!
To Relax This Week I Will
Take the camera outside and enjoy the sunshine! Maybe visit the garden center.
Something I Want To Share
No idea why this song popped into my head this morning! However, here you go:
Quote For The Week
How wonderful yellow is! It stands for the sun. (Vincent Van Gogh)

Headings were in blue because baseball is back! Royals opening day this week. How is your week going so far?
I LOVE your pictures this week! Especially the cat one – such a cutie and a doppleganger for my dear sweet Sady. And yes, I do the power nap thing too and fool myself 😀 Thank you very much, that song started playing in my head when I read the title earlier in your post, but the video solidified it – it’ll be stuck all day!
Happy Easter, Happy Spring Break – feel better and have a great rest of the week.

Thank you! It’s a good thing our little cat is cute because she sure does think she’s the boss of us all. I guess she probably is the boss though, ha! Not sure whether to say you’re welcome or apologize for getting that song stuck in your head 🙂 Hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend!
I lOVE that song!!!!!
Beautiful photos, my friend.
Happy spring break!
Would you believe it is literally snowing here in PA?
Guess it is a cozy inside day for me!

Thank you! I told my 16 year old you said it was snowing yesterday and he said maybe it was an April Fool’s Day joke 😉 Of course, I know you did get snow. We had cold here, frost warning this morning even. I’m ready for some warmer weather again. Hope you are having a wonderful Easter weekend so far!
