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. 

I'm backing up to Friday; look at the leaves showing off! I have spotty service when I drive to work, so every morning I park here in my church parking lot and talk to Marilyn and then my Mom. I don't like to rush each morning, so I leave my house around 7:35 and then do this; I leave the parking lot at eight and then sit out front of my school in my car until 8:15. I am a creature of habit! This lets me ease into my mornings each day. Are you like this? 

I ran out of protein drinks by Friday, so all I had was iced coffee that morning. Imagine my surprise when I got to work and saw that it was a faculty breakfast! This was delicious. 

As usual, I drove to Chris' immediately after work. Look at the leaves on the drive there! I love a country road, especially in the throes of Fall when the leaves are this pretty. We had a good dinner; well, I had a good dinner, he didn't love what he ordered. We drove around the small town that he lives near since he was late getting home because of really bad traffic. It was a fun night! 

I had a lazy Saturday; I watched movies, I did laundry, I cleaned the house minimally. It was glorious! This was after sleeping late and staying in bed until almost 9:45. He ended up coming to me Saturday night since I was dog sitting for my son Graham. Baby Jack is adorable!

Yes, he got onto my new coffee table to hide from Stella. 🤣 We went to eat dinner and then came back to my house for a fire in the fire pit. It was a fun night.

We got drinks from Dutch Brothers and brought them back to my house. The baby dogs all got in some trouble that night; my deck is about eight inches off the ground, and all three dogs weaseled their way underneath into the mud and muck that lives under there. The more we looked at them, the muddier they appeared to get. It took us at least thirty minutes to get them all clean enough to be brought inside again! I had church on Sunday, lunch after with Graham, Mom, and Bill, then I went to Marilyn's for the afternoon to help her. It was a great weekend, one that went way too quickly. I'm excited about the week, though; my niece, her husband, and my four great nieces will be here visiting! I'll be so glad to see them all, and for the big family dinner that will take place next Sunday night before they leave town again. 

What did you do that you loved this weekend? I'd love to hear from you! Thanks for reading my blog today, friends. I'll see you back here tomorrow! Love to all.
