Time to look back on the week and find the blessings. Susanne is our host for this and you can find her blog here.
1) Thankful for a quiet weekend last week. It had been quite busy here the week before with family visiting etc so it was nice just to have some down time particularly as I was fighting a cold.
2) Thankful that the cold has now gone and I'm feeling much more my usual self and less sleep disruptions.
3) A Knit and Natter session on Tuesday this week. We've also changed venue to the upstairs room of the local pub. It means we have more space and can natter over a glass of wine.
4) A good library book club meet up on Wednesday. We had a new member and all the regulars were there so 8 of us in total.
5) A fun evening last night at the Foodbank - another wine tasting and quiz evening organised by the local wine bar. It was a sell out with 120 tickets sold. Hopefully it will have raised a lot of money for the Foodbank. It was a long day for me though as I was there at 9 am for the usual foodbank session until 1.30 then we had 2 of Hubby's sisters and their husbands for dinner as they joined us to make up a team for the quiz. We didn't get home until around 11 pm. Thankfully nothing was planned for today.
And as a bonus it's definitely spring time now - I got washing dry outside during the week!
Have a good weekend all.
You have a wonderful list of blessings this week.
ReplyDeleteI'd love the "natter and wine" part of your get together.....i love a good glass of wine..Riesling is my fave from one of the vineyards here in NYS (the Finger Lakes region which is about 3 hours southwest of where i live in eastern NYS). I also love a good Shirah (I think i spelled it correctly...a red wine that actually does not give me chest pain like most reds do).
I had a book group meeting this week too and 5 out of 6 of us came.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend
You had a very full and very satisfying week!! Great turnout for the fundraiser!! Hoping the week ahead will be a bit more relaxing for you, Wendy. Take care of you!! xo
ReplyDeleteI love it when a quiet week follows a busy one. I'm glad you're feeling better. The food bank event sounds like a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteThat is good you are feeling better after your cold. I started with one yesterday. Ugh! Your Knit and Natter group sounds good and the book club too. Good job on raising the money for the foodbank.
ReplyDeleteGood to be able to enjoy a slower pace after a time of busyness. Hope you're feeling better.
