Each Friday Susanne reminds us to look back on the week and remember the things that have made us grateful. Then we join up here to share. Thank you Susanne.
1) A chat with my best friend yesterday by phone. I'm going to visit her next week to properly catch up - she's currently recovering from a fractured pelvis - fortunately it's only on one side so no surgery was required but it's still been a difficult few weeks for her but she's doing better.
2) A long phone chat with my closest cousin today. We don't see each other often but when we do or when we get on the phone we just pick up from where we left off.
3) 2 good book group meetings on Wednesday. (Afternoon and evening.) Both were well attended and we had some good discussions.
4) Hubby mowed the lawn today without having to be asked! Mowing the lawn is definitely one of his jobs but I often have to remind him it needs doing.
5) Our neighbour's cherry blossom tree is in full bloom and that's a very pretty view from my kitchen window. Just a shame that it is already losing the blossom. It is so short lived. But we've also had some sunshine too this week.
Have a good weekend all.
Oh, those cherry blossoms are so pretty! Long chats with those we love is balm for the soul. Glad you enjoyed two of them this week!
ReplyDeleteLOVE cherry blossoms. Mine are no where near blooming yet. As I'm typing this some light snow is falling and sticking but it's just a dusting as it's winding down already. gotta love March in New York! We are a LONG way from needing to mow the lawn. MUD MUD MUD and now a dusting. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteLove that you had 2 good phone calls. I can't imagine fracturing the pelvis. OUCH. Prayers for a speedy recovery for your friend.
Happy weekend!
Hooray for sunshine and cherry blossoms!! Cousins are special in my life, too. Have a good weekend, Wendy!
ReplyDeleteThe cherry blossom tree is so pretty, long chats on the phone with friends and family are wonderful
ReplyDeleteOuch--I can't imagine dealing with a fractured pelvis. I hope your friend heals well and quickly. Glad you got to talk with her and will visit soon. It's good you had a good talk with your cousin as well, and had some good book group meetings. Our grass is greening up and just about ready to mow--that's my husband's job, too. :) The cherry blossoms are so pretty. Our neighbor has some kind of flowering tree whose petals were blown around in the wind--it almost looked like it was snowing petals.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to have a chat with your friend and your cousin. I hope your friend is recovering well.
ReplyDeleteWell done your hubby for mowing the lawn, I always have to nag mine! lol
I'm glad you had that chat with your cousin. I hope she is healing well.
ReplyDeleteThe cherry blossom tree is beautiful. It's a promise that spring is coming!
