Last week started off with cold temps again. It was a bit of a rude awakening since Thursday of the prior week had me in shorts and sandals. Sigh. Back to boots and leggings...
One of my students had a birthday and she brought a new "friend" with her to piano lessons. I loved where she placed him! It was rather hilarious to look up there and see a stuffed animal peeking out between her music.
HA!
Wednesday I wore my #pearlsforbarbara to honor the life of our former First Lady.
And I also snacked on the most DELICIOUS sugar cookie from Mary Lou's! If you're from around here you know that Mary Lou's has seriously good doughnuts. but I had no idea they had cookies and other items! Until a student told me! I thought he had the name of the shop wrong. HA! Alas he was correct on the name and also correct on their deliciousness. I regretted only buying two.
Thursday was an exciting mail day. Yes, that is a lazy neck cell phone holder, and I love it.
You can also bend it to use it like a tripod of sorts, and I used it that day for a skype lesson and it worked great!
Pair #1 of the 3 pairs of free shoes I ordered from Sears arrived on Thursday as well!
I also had a chiro apt, and he put me in my favorite room. My Mom's not so favorite room, she hates birds. So I had to take the obligatory picture to send to her. For some reason I never got a response????!
I seem to have a uniform of sorts on Thursdays. A Northview shirt, and leggings or jeggings, and comfy shoes. I managed to drop Firehouse Subs on my shirt at lunchtime. My chiro asked me what I had for lunch and I said, you just saw the stain on my shirt didn't you. Yup.
Then when I was having dinner that evening I dropped Chicken Taco soup on my cardigan.
All my meals were covered.
Sunday dawned bright and beautiful and I was SO excited to be at church after not feeling well the past two Sundays. Two Sundays felt like 2 months. It was GREAT to be back!
And I ran into Captain Jack Sparrow at church, because even he needs Jesus!
HA!
Actually we are having a series based on the Movies, so we have had movie characters roaming around every week! I was seriously impressed on how many Spiritual Truths, scripture and life lessons Pastor Steve was able to get out of a few clips of a movie about a lady with early onset Alzheimer's. Before I left for church I thought, oh good, we have a lighter series, that means I won't cry at church this week. Well. I made it to about 7 minutes until the end and then the water works came. I can't help it. The Spirit moves and I shed some tears!
After church I had a ton of errands to run, I decided to go to the Aldi not far from my church, and as I was sitting at a red light I looked over and saw this license plate and I thought it was hilarious. Maybe it's the Midwest but I feel like we don't have very many creative personalized plates. So I did a double take when I saw this NY plate.
I ran all over town, came home and got to work on cleaning and organizing my house. If you remember from last week I had finished painting a curb side find, (my favorite) the sofa table to go at the end of my hallway. One of my errands was to Dollar Tree to find some storage containers that fit the vision I had for this table.
I came home with the four on the bottom shelf, and different ones for the top shelf. Put everything in them, and thought, ehhh I don't think I like this. I snapped a picture to send to Audra to confirm and she agreed. So I went back to Dollar tree for the second time that day, and got four more bins for the top shelf. Ignore the top of the sofa table, those items are waiting to find homes. :)
I love the final look! Well, I would love it more if the bins on the ground were 3, and could go vertical, but alas they were too long. I may have to hunt down some other ones that are small and short enough to go vertical. But other than that I love it! And it organizes my stuff SO well!!!
