Weekends

 

How was your weekend?

Ours was upside down but overall nice. 

Yesterday I had every intention to go to Mass but when I talked to my husband and heard how congested I was (allergies? cold?) I decided no one wanted to be near me and if I was contagious I didn't want to share my germs. With additional medicines, my husband is finally feeling a bit better. Fingers are crossed he has crossed over to good health after two weeks of symptoms.

We cancelled going over to my sister and brother in law's house for Easter dinner. However, my sister kindly brought dinner to us! How sweet is that? I am beyond grateful and dinner was delicious.

I managed to knit the second sock and have completed turning the heel and picking up the gusset. I am so close to the sock being finished now.

    I hope everyone is beginning to feel better. The pollen count here is quite high and I feel like I need more allergy meds, too.

    Hope you are both feeling better soon. It's so disappointing when you have to miss out on the things you want to do.

    Steve's allergies were AWFUL yesterday.

    Good to hear your hubby is feeling better. So sad your Easter day plans got cancelled. Your sister is a sweet thing for bringing dinner to you. How nice of Frodo to guard the sock for you. We had a marvelous Easter with going to the Vigil Mass Saturday and then having 15 family members at our home for dinner Sunday.

    That was very nice of your sister to bring you Easter dinner. Sounds like your Easter was nice, even though it was different than you had planned. Allergies can be rough at this time of year. I hope you have a good week. See you again soon!

    Now comes allergy season. The pollen count is high here too. I'm sorry your Easter plans were upended but how sweet of your sister to bring dinner to you. Take good care and feel better.

    Happy Easter, I hope you're both feeling better now. It was my son's birthday on Monday, 23 years old, shocking how time flies. I like your sock yarn, very nice colours x

My weekend happily contained: -wearing the above woolens all at the same time without being hot -so many walks and taking in the changing leaves. -a leaf shower on Saturday-the wind swirled the leaves off the trees up in the air to float down -changing screen savers to autumn themes! -a craft fair where my husband and I say "we could make that", but we don't. -french fries at the craft fair -scrambled eggs and toast for dinner because we were lazy. -football season has descended in my house. he was in the front room watching whatever is on today -I sat in the family room and watched A Tree Grows in Brooklyn .   Now I want to read it again. -Oh! I finished the socks!! So I wound up about six skeins of yarn and have three projects ready -started a cowl for me in fall colors (I hope to finish before fall ends) -enjoying Spirits of Joy .  Hannah graciously had a one day free sign up for her birthday at the end of September which I luckily saw on Twitter.  Than

New Year

  Good morning! How are you? Happy New Year, may this year be full of blessings to all of you. Well now, I finally have an empty home after having our son, daughter in law, grandson and granddaughter here for six nights.  I am still experiencing fatigue and symptoms from the virus even though I am feeling better. It was a challenge hosting family while recovering. Also we babysat the kids overnight (!!) while my son and daughter in law went for little getaway. I am thankful and grateful my Aunt came over both days to help out with the granddaughter who never sleeps during the day. (snack-naps do not count!). They all left early in the morning, and while I was tired, sleep deprived and fatigued, I put away Christmas plus all the toys and doodads you need for babies. Today I am looking at a squeaky clean house. I am planning on reading books and falling asleep while doing so! My exercise routine is on hold as I slowly get better. Maybe next week I can muster up some energy for some yoga

  Good morning! How are all of you doing on this fine Monday morning? I'm back after having family here for nine nights (!). Our little granddaughter went back to ER this past Thursday for some oxygen monitoring and was successfully discharged the same day. She sees her doctor this afternoon in her hometown, so far she is feeling better. The miracle is that no one else came down with the virus. (maybe her dad but it was barely 48 hours of a mild cough). It's all about me and I'm glad that I didn't catch it. Our company left Friday morning. My husband and I blitzed the house like madmen. We put away all the toys, playpens, the highchair and compressed our kitchen table down from seating six to seating four people. I completed four loads of laundry that day. (let me tell you that little baby and grandson generated a load of laundry per day - and both kids generated a bag of garbage daily - I do not remember any of this when my kids were little). We strategically went thro
