Dreaming of Fall!

Good evening!

I am dreaming of Fall! Scrumptious grey rainy days, sloshing around in puddles with the kiddies, hot cocoa and mini-marshmallows with friends, thick feather comforters and a lovely good book, fuzzy-warm slippers on a crisp and cold morning, snuggling with the ones you love on the sofa after a long brisk walk in the chilly afternoon.

Sounds absolutely fabulous!!

While I continue my evening of dreaming about Fall, I would LOVE to hear your favorite thoughts about Fall.

Have a FABULOUS evening! 😉

Quickie Update!

Ok, so I am trying like a fiend to get in bed within the next 3 minutes, I am going to make this super short and sweet!

It is a rainy night here in Oregon, and I LOVE listening to the rain pelt the windows. When I got home today, I took a moment to sit in the car and just listened to the rain hitting the metal roof of my car, it was soooooo relaxing! Well, as I was sitting there there just soaking up the peace and quiet, when all of the sudden I looked at the mini blue flowers that grow in front of my condo, and what did I see? A tiny humming bird!!! IN THE RAIN!!! It was sooooo AWESOME!! I caught myself holding my breath just hoping it wouldn’t notice that it was being spied upon, and hang around so I could just watch it for a little while, which it did!! I realized in that moment, that it really is the small things in life that makes life worth living!! 😉 This week at work has been super hectic – everyone seems to be in a panic mode of something or other! Whew!!! So, I really needed that little rendezvous with that little humming bird!

Today I was basically living off of a major to-do list today, and although I had every intention of getting EVERY SINGLE item done, it didn’t happen!!! It’s all good though!!!

Here is what I did get done:

  1. Flossed
  2. Got to work on time
  3. Grocery shopped – buying nothing unhealthy!!! YEAH!!!
  4. Made dinner at home
  5. Dinner
  6. One load of laundry
  7. Practiced my piano lesson
  8. Gave the dog her medicine
  9. Cleaned the laundry room
  10. Bagged up the garbage

I have soooo much more to get done, but it will have to wait until tomorrow!!!

Tomorrow, I will have to spend a good portion of the evening at the laundromat washing my feather comforter and another large blanket off of my bed! I am determined to go to bed in a crisp, freshly made bed tomorrow night – starting the weekend off right! Not my favorite Friday night plans, but I am going to make sure I take a FABULOUS book, and a travel mug of rich hot cocoa!!! PERFECT!!!

Ok, so I missed my bed time deadline! That is alright, I will try it again tomorrow! I have got to start making my rest a priority!!! My new late night habits are evening starting to stress my puppies out! Poor things!! LOL!! 😉

Have a FABULOUS evening!
