Friday again and as usual our wonderful host Susanne has reminded us to look back on the week and remember the things we're grateful for. You can find her blog here.
1) An outing with Hubby on Monday. We went to nearby Loughton to browse the shops and have lunch out. We found a nice cafe for that and also a lot of charity shops. Of course I really don't need any more books but I couldn't resist:
2) An unplanned visit to my best friend on Tuesday with the bonus of catching up with her 3 daughters, 2 of their partners and 4 little ones - one only 4 weeks old who I hadn't met before. Oh and a 12 week old pup. What's not to love?
3) A successful trip this week to collect food for the Foodbank. Grateful that I have the time and energy to support this needed service.
4) Me time! I spent quite a few hours this week completing this:
It's been a while since I did a jigsaw and I'm fairly sure I've done this one before but I didn't have a photo of it so maybe I'm wrong.
Anyway I had fun doing it.
5) Grandsons Noah and Miles arrived yesterday (with my eldest son) and are here until next weekend. Hopefully our current spell of good weather will last.
Have a good weekend all.
sounds like you had some very nice blessings this past week with visits with friends and newborn babies and your grandsons, relaxing with a puzzle, and shopping for books. I hope you enjoy the weekend!
ReplyDeleteOh, fun!! Grandkids there for the week ahead!! What a blessing that is!! I enjoyed your post, Wendy!
ReplyDeleteYour Monday outing sounds perfect. You can never have too many books. :-) What a great visit catching up with your friend and her family. I'm so glad you're able to do the food bank. Have fun with the grandkids this weekend!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a pretty good week
ReplyDeleteHave fun with Miles and Noah!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Barbara-- you can't have too many books. Your Monday 'date' sounds just perfect.
Have a good week!
Sounds like a nice week. I don't need any more books either, but I found a few at the used bookstore at the library. Happy Sunday!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a lovely day out with your husband. I do love a look around the charity shops.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to support the foodbank, it's so sad that they are needed as much as they are.
Have a lovely time with your son and grandsons.
You had a nice week and the same weather as we had. Unfortunately today (Sunday) it rains again ! Charity shops just start here, but there are very few, I wished there would be more it's such a good idea. My "little" grandson with his 14 years know grows towards his 2 m, now 1.96, it always seems to me that he walks on stilts ! He had to change his basket ball club, because he was too tall ! Now he is with older boys. Fortunately my son is also 2m so he has no complex.
ReplyDeleteYour week sounds lovely. One can never have too many books. I love the work you do with your food bank!
