This week was my turn to be on-call for work, as usual this mean little sleep and a lot of stress. More doctors appointments, more stress. One saving grace was my postage stamp front yard showing its best colors for spring. This year, I added a few more perennials (pincushions, plox, sulfur cosmos that will bloom throughout the summer season, unlike the lilies, irises and daylilies that will show their splendor only for a few weeks a year.
The hubby and I have been busy clearing up all the leftover mess from rebuilding our deck. The back patio is ready for us to enjoy some nice weather. After such a rainy week, the sunshine this weekend felt wonderful.
It was also a week of celebration, 500+ readers that take the time to follow my ramblings. Thank you. Five for 500 started with those four giveaways:
- a bracelet and matching earrings from Kitty Cats and Airplanes HERE (ends May 25th)
The 5th giveaway will be published tomorrow :) if you are wondering about the weird schedule... it's because we will be out of town next weekend.
The crafting highlights of the week : Amie and I had another crafty play date (more to come on that soon) and I finished another Layla handbag, this one for my little sister, in her favorite colors.
Funny how we get along so great and still have such different tastes ...
I almost forgot ... more flowers
It's nice that you can step outside your front door and be greeted by those beautiful plants and flowers. It must lift your spirits on your way to work!
