Hello Monday

 

Happy Monday, friends! I hope you had a great weekend! I can't wait to hear from you at the end of today's post. I'm linking up with Holly and Sarah for today's blog post. My weekend was super low key, and not the best I've had, if I'm being honest. I had lots of let downs and disappointments, but it's a new day and I'm pressing on. 

This road was beautiful to drive down as I drove to Marilyn's on Friday morning. I needed to run a couple of errands before I went to her house, so this was a cut through from one part of town over to her old house. I will never get tired of country drives with these fall leaves! I got to her house and we finished emptying her house of odds and ends. I helped with wiping surfaces down, doing double checks on every closet/cabinet in the house, and vacuuming. We stopped to get lunch before heading to her new house, where we unloaded everything and put some things away. She and I left again to go back to her old house one more time, then we ended by getting frozen yogurt. We parted ways for a couple of hours so that I could home to check on the dogs and feed them, then I went back to her for dinner. We didn't do much at that point, well I didn't. She had been a busy bee all afternoon and had gotten lots done in my absence. 

We ate dinner, listened to Christmas music, then took our first picture together at her new house! This felt like a milestone. I didn't stay late since she had to be a work event early the next morning. I woke up and watched a Hallmark Christmas movie. This was cute!

I had some Bible reading time on my couch...

And then I got my hair colored on Saturday; those were the big plans of my day, it turns out. It's a long story, but my Saturday night plans didn't happen. Instead, I grabbed dinner with Marilyn at a favorite local bar/grille type place, Skybox. 

My other big activity of the day was making sourdough. I haven't made it in months! 

Chris did end up coming over later in the evening, so at least I got to see him for a little bit. I had to be at church early Sunday morning to work in the tech booth again this week, and then I came home after church. I took a shower because my hair was super frizzy, then I took a nap and did some things around my house in preparation for the coming week. Chris came to pick me up that afternoon, and we headed to my mom's house for dinner. I finally got to see my niece and her family!

 

It was a fun night, and I'm glad Chris was there with me. I kind of broke him in for Thanksgiving next week. Next week! Eeeekkkk! 

How was your weekend? What did you do that you loved? I'd love to hear from you! Thanks for reading my blog today, friends. Love to all!
