Monday night I met up with my friend Louise to visit. Tuesday was a meeting at the church. Wednesday was my course. I've been staying late at the office each night trying to get ahead. Crazy. I was thankful for a quiet evening at home with my family last night.
I belong to a wonderful group of blogging friends and they have been blessing me in a huge way lately. I've been getting care packages filled with gifts and M&Ms in the mail recently and it just warms my heart. I'm hoping to do a blog post on that soon because it deserves more than one or two lines in this post! I have pictures too :-)
I just got some GREAT news last night. I woman I worked with when I was pregnant with Matthew has bought a house about 5 minutes from mine so we'll get to actually see each other for coffee and playdates. She has a daughter close to Jordan's age and a baby. So excited.
I'm hoping to visit with my mama tomorrow and then go out on a dinner date with my Ian in the evening. Sunday is Palm Sunday and then next week... whoa! My girls' birthdays! Julie turns 12 on Wednesday and Jordan turns 5 on Friday.
Life is full these days, that''s for sure.
Enough chit chat Kate!
It's time for Mama M's Five Question Friday blog meme!
1. What advice would you give a newly married couple?
Enjoy being just the two of you before adding to your family. Do things, go places, learn.
Learn to be forgiving with one another. You will have many, many, opportunities to practice.
Never speak poorly about your spouse to anyone. Ever. Once you do, you've opened the door for others to do it as well. Be their biggest cheerleader and their safe place.
Start and finish every day with I love you.
Hug often.
2. Who does more laundry around your house?
Ian does. But I do my own.
3. What items, if any, do you prefer to buy organic or make yourself?
I never buy organic anything. Ever.
4. What book/TV series would you recommend for a friend on bedrest?
Fifty Shades of Grey. HA.
The Left Behind series.
Or watch Lost from beginning to end, or Flashpoint.
5. So, they say it's Spring now...what does your "spring" look like at this very moment?
We had a blizzard today. I seriously want to punch Mother Nature in the face.
Ok! I'm off! Have a super day and a super weekend!
How about this...you hold Mother Nature down and I'll punch her, then we can reverse roles? I love you, friend!
