This week I had three days....a little time before I started my Summer School job...three days...I like to think of it as a mini-vacation...but, somehow, it's not quite fit that description.
So, just exactly what have I done with those three days...Okay, here it is, even if you didn't really want to know :D
* Monday...up bright and early to make the most of my day :D......which consisted of....
- Running errands in town
- Laundry
- A hair appointment...now, I'm a little more the color I imagine in my mind :D
- Cooked Dinner
- Headed back to town to a meeting a church
- Walked a mile with my sister...Yep! That's the new plan...to actually walk
every evening :D
* Tuesday....
- Up early to take my Mr. to the Tri-Cities to pick up the rental car he is using this week..so, I can keep his truck loaded with the freezer and ready to go the the new market starting on Friday morning!
- We get there...and, ummmmmm....there is NO rental car...apparently, he was suppose to pick it up in Pasco??? Ohhhhhhhh...not a fun moment. Thankfully, they would deliver it to Hermiston on Wednesday morning....
- Next, on to Basin City to the meat packers to pick up some more meat :D (I probably should confess that I was not a happy camper at this point...my poor Mr.....The original plan involved him going there, and me heading back home to do a few of my own "to do list" items!)
- God is good! And, even though, the change in plans earlier in the day appeared to alter my lunch plans to celebrate a friends birthday....well, you know how God works it all out...I Made IT, just in time to join the girls for lunch! Did I already tell you how GOOD GOD IS!!!!
- There is nothing better than a lazy, warm afternoon spent in the company of friends, eating, visiting, catching up...drinking Ice Tea, and eating homemade chocolate cake...watching three little boys totally happy to dig, build, and play, checking out the pigs, chickens, sheep, & cows....it was the PERFECT afternoon...one I sooooo was in need of :D
* Wednesday.....
- I finally slept in....Whooooohoooooo!!! (although, sometimes, I think that's not such a good idea...it seems to throw my whole energy level off :D)
- I'm pleased to announce the bathrooms are sparkling clean, the floors shiny and fresh, and the dust is gone (even if only for a few minutes! :D)
- A little more laundry
- A tune-up at the chiropractors
- A trip to Pendleton to pick up the Mr. because he was leaving his "other" farm truck at the diesel doctors!
- Dinner out...if McDonald's counts :D (It's hard to believe when we were dating...dinner out was McDonald's for $5.00....now, it's $11.00!)
- Bible Study with my favorite girls....another much needed, oh so sweet, refreshing, reviving gift to my heart!
So, there you have it....my mini vacation! It's all good....because even though it was a little different than I had planned...God still blessed me with the opportunity to spend a little extra time with my husband, time to catch up with friends, and most of all...some time to catch up with HIM!!! Here's to having the BEST Friday ever....Sweet blessings!
