A week has gone by?

Wow, that was a fassssssssst week!

Sometimes, the days blend together for me. Sometimes, I have to stop and think about which day it *feels* like. This week, Sunday crept up on me.

{sigh} and that's a bummer, because that then means Monday is the next day. And this week, the kids are on vacation, and I am not. Each year I have said I was going to take time when they take time for spring break. For some reason, we didn't do it. I think, in the end, it's a good thing, though because I am heading out to Chicago next Monday for a few days. So, if I had taken this week off, and next week out of town, I would feel quite disconnected to work. ;-)

So, today was Easter. We had everyone here, the neighborhood egg hunt commenced at 9:41AM, and concluded at 9:54AM. :o) 10 kids, 300-350 eggs, and lots of energy, and excitement! Then we had appetizers, and lunch/dinner at 2:00. A very large, very lengthy baseball game ensued following, and that was a blast! It became 7:00PM before my eyes, and the kids were exhausted, for sure.

We also did loads of yard prep yesterday. My dear mom pulled many, many of her plants from her yard (they are selling and she wants to keep the older , sentimental plants from her dad in her family ...) and transplanted them here. Our yard is going to be gorgeous! It is SUCH a work in progress for sure, but she has such an eye for it. I am looking forward to the summer months with it all in bloom. :o)

So, alas, another Sunday evening. Some bills paid, the house is quiet, and I am ready to watch my one show a week - Grey's Anatomy. I actually have a book I need to finish too, as I picked up my new just rec'd new book - The Dance of The Dissident Daughter - and am anxious to read that .... oooo, decision, decisions .... :o)

So, off I go, and ready to start a new week -- NOT. Wish I had a clock-slower for the weekend. ;0)

Happy Sunday evening, and Easter too .....
