Windy, But Gorgeous

Thought I was talking about myself, did ya? HA!

We turned OFF the furnace today because it kept trying to come on. No need. The house was warm overnight...and again today. Love it!

At last, we had a warm-weather day on a weekend. I didn't get up particularly early, but the day was fraught with cleaning in preparation for the arrival of our "guest" Mariah, Robin's friend. As much as I really needed to tend to the laundry, I couldn't waste the good weather. I worked and worked in the front yard, raking leaves from the fall, nipping off volunteer shoots from shrubs, sawing off mulberry branches in bushes where they shouldn't be, and sorting through some junk that was left in front from way back when we got Meg moved out of her storage unit. In short, I'm beat...but the house's "curb appeal" has improved considerably.

Meg and Ryan went to the library and did some errands in order to give Robin and her friend some space. I did take the girls to the park for about 1 1/2 hours. The rest of the time, they played on their own. All the wind and fresh air have wiped me out. There is SO much more to do, but for today, I'm done!
