spring dreams :)

to everything
there is a season
and a time for every purpose under heaven...

multiple textures from kim klassen, including 1402magic and canvasback...

one sweet week :)

starting on sunday, the day after the blizzard,

it was a week of overload...

we dug out on saturday in Connecticut where the snow at house was only 2 feet deep.  in other parts of our little state, they got up to 40 inches. 

and they are still digging out, 9 days later....

 

 

 

so sunday, we headed to the cape to see how our little house 

took the hurricane force winds and heavy snow. 

it was a one day trip - in and out on the same day -

and made for a very long day for both of us. 

joey doesn't do long drives without whining and i am the worst rider ever. 

especially when he's driving. 

but our house was intact, the power there had come back on,

we had a lovely dinner and the ride home DID end. 

so all was good :)

and i got to take pics from the truck as he drove,

which made the ride a little more bearable...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the rest of the week was work-overload,

from morning to night...

i was in the office, on the phone for hours, and it was grueling.

but i was able to sit near a window and see the birds on the deck

which sure adds beauty to a workday :)

and my valentine surprised me with a bouquet of tulips and iris :)

and we got great news at an appointment with rest of our lives :) :)

so the week of overload ended on a high note and turned into

one sweet week :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



playtime :)

 

after a week of all-work/no-play, i was ready for the weekend...

 

a week of vacation at cape cod, followed by a week of catching up at work meant the house was dirty.   luckily for me, joey thinks he's the better housecleaner.  he likes to give me instructions, and demonstrations, on how i should clean stuff.  as annoying as that can be at times, i am not a fool.  my housework gets done by mr. know-it-all and we're both happy with the results :)

 

so saturday morning, i went to the river and took pics. lots of pics. then i played with the pics almost all day.

 

on sunday morning, i ran to the park, before enduring my weekly cleaning lesson...i helped with some housework and then played with pics for the rest of the day. 

 

joey and i both thought it was pretty much a perfect weekend. 

am i a lucky girl or what?

:)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 





 

just a quick note....imagine the housework in this beautiful home...

as beautiful as it is, i bet they didn't get playtime over the weekend....
