Life is hectic ...

Okay, it has been over a week since my last post. So thought I’d fill you in on life. Last week, Sunday – Thursday, I taught crafts for VBS at our church. Had a wonderful time, as always, but by Thursday, was completely exhausted. I think the kids were too. LOL!

Tiff my DSD finished up with their week long softball stint in Shawnee, Kansas. Am glad and sad at the same time that it’s over. I enjoyed the little weekend jaunts out of town, but I hadn’t been able to go to the week long events and probably wouldn’t have enjoyed them near as much anyway.

This week things have slowed down considerably, thank God! Tonight I do have Lit ‘N’ Latte at church. This is a new group we have started. We meet once a month to discuss the monthly read and fellowship. Tonight will be our first meetup. Am looking forward to that. This month’s read was Beach House by Sally John. I will post a review later this week. Was a great read tho. First on the agenda for tonight is El Jimador! Love Mexican!

Just messing around ...

Saw this today on Meghan’s blog, and I thought I’d give it a shot too.
TODAY
July 20, 2009
Outside my window… there is a nice breeze blowing, the sun is shining.
I am thinking... about how long the week is going to be with DH gone.
I am thankful for… my family and friends.
From the kitchen… I need another Diet Dew.
I am wearing… blue capris and my white MML shirt.
I am creating… nothing at the moment, supposed to be working.
I am going… to help with VBS tonight at church
I am reading… Beach House by Sally John
I am hoping… to have a relaxing Friday off.
I am hearing… radio ‘The Lady in Red,’ and the birds singing outside.
Around the house… there are a lot of things need to do, but won’t get too until the weekend.
One of my favorite things… is to spend time with my friends, or to sit in the sun with a good book.
A few plans for the rest of the week… VBS tonight through Thursday, supper with a friend on Thursday before VBS, and taking time off on Friday (from everything).

Hello blogger friends!

Last Friday I went to my mom and dad’s to visit with my niece and nephew who came in from PA. We ended up taking them to Stephen’s Park. I had never been there before. It is a beautiful park. I thought I’d share a couple of pics from the park.

Musing Mondays and an Update

Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about library company…

Who, if anyone usually accompanies you to the library? Is it somewhere you go alone? Or is it a regular outing with family or friends? Which do you prefer?

I usually head to the library on Sunday afternoons. I don't take anyone with me. This is "me" time. A time I can be alone with one of the things I love most -> BOOKS!

Musing Mondays is hosted on http://rebeccavoy.blogspot.com/. Check out her Web site.

Other things ....
My crew finally made it home from Denver around 5:15 Sunday morning. Was a long week for me - glad they are back home.

I am currently reading Beach House by Sally John for our Lit 'N' Latte group at church, Summer at Willow Lake by Susan Wiggs, and Crewel World by Monica Ferris.

I will be posting another book this week for the monthly drawing, so stay tuned ...

Blessings,
