This has been a swift week to me. On Monday, I had to go to Thomasville and take my hubs mom's laundry to her. She is experiencing some difficulty with a skin disorder. I have never heard of it but she says she is not in pain; although to me it appears painful. She was in a good mood, had a new book her daughter had brought her. I stopped at a local grocery and took her some fruit and some Nilla wafers. (ya know me..feed the soul and the belly!)
On Tuesday, I picked up Alden from school. Noah has an afterschool program he attends on Tuesday, so it was just us two. We went and got icecream from the DQ, mini blizzards. YUMMO! When we got in, we decided to spend some time outdoors, so we picked up sticks around two pecan trees. There were plenty as the trees had been shaken. At first it was fun, we piled the big ones and the little ones into a pile and it grew! We talked about making a fire later and roasting "smarshmellows". Alden always has good ideas. As we walked to the 2nd tree, he wanted to get all the big limbs as his muscles were stronger than a Nanny's! We talked as we picked up and oh the things you can learn from a 4 year old with a vivid imigination....(maybe I need to start recording some of his because it would be a best seller in years to come)...AS soon as he finished with the big sticks he told me he was ready to go inside. I should have done so right then, but the adult in me wanted to finish at least that tree. Well we did finish, came inside and he let out a big sigh, crashed in Poppa's chair and said "whewww weee Nanny..I are tired lil boy! How much money did I make?"...lol...Poppa get out your wallet. It was a good afternoon, but I really should have stopped after his first request because today I can hardly move from all the bending and stooping I did helping with the chore. My calf muscle and those behind my thunder thighs were screaming today!! OUCH ..dont move, OUCH that hurts...ohhhh please don't walk or bend...careful sitting. It was a real workout.....oh did I mention before the outdoor activity; that I had washed all the curtains in the master bath, bedrooms, dusted the baseboards, rehung the curtains, and other household chores..YEP I expended all my energy in one day!
This morning my Mom came out to pick up a few pecans and although all my body parts were screaming, I did the daughter thing and I helped. So maybe that loosened the screaming muscles up some, will tell you more tomorrow..LOL...
In the morning I have a date! Yes a wonderful expectation of a great day. I am going to spend it with two of my favorite people, my Dad's baby sister, and a cousin. We always have sooo much fun together, sooo much laughter, one liners, stories, tears, and prayers. I truly enjoy being with them and enjoy our outings too. Trouble is there are never enough of those outings. Will tell you about the day and perhaps share a picture or two....till then..hope your week is going as smoothly as mine...(well except for those screaming muscles...hehehe I had told my hubs that I had intentions of deep cleaning one room per day till I got it all done...when he got home I told him I may get one room cleaned per week or perhaps one room per month!....oh heavens the well laid plans of woman!)..Ha...
And another great thing..its raining!!!!Thank you Lord. Talk to you all soon!
