Things of Note:
Work has been super slow lately, so I’ve been getting lots of random things done around the house. Finally putting pictures in those frames and getting them on the wall, sewing on missing buttons and fixing holes, weeding flowerbeds, laundry… I’ve also been reading a lot, and finished up the book portion of my Fifty/Fifty challenge. And overall it’s been a nice break from the normal flow of things, even if I do get restless occasionally. Next week we’re heading up to Ohio for Thanksgiving with my family, and also my 10-year high school reunion. Gulp. I admit I’m a teensy bit anxious about it.
Also, our weather here seems to have realized it’s November. It was 45 degrees when I woke up this morning. We’ve finally switched to running the heat instead of the A/C, and I am appreciating the Keurig even more on these cold mornings.
How’s your week going?
