39 Feels Just Fine

Well, for goodness sake, it’s been TWELVE days since I last posted.

Oh, just busy turning 39 years old!

The BEST part?  Justin gave me the past two weekends off from work.  That means Justin took the load of our group home for those weekends and I relaxed and ate bons-bons. 

He started my birthday off with a beautiful bouquet.

I’ve been starting my days in the screened in porch, reading and drinking coffee.

My Mother and Father-in-Law gave me this laughing Buddha!

And my Mom and Stepdad gave me this Begonia for our porch.  I love sitting out there and enjoying all the beauty!

We’ve lunched. A lot.

I’ve treated myself to Yogurtini and a Starbuck’s mini Caramel Cocoa Cluster!

I rarely go to Starbucks because I love those dang Fraps but they are so sugary I feel like I’m having a heart attack.  These minis are just enough. Thank you Starbucks!

I’ve been cooking. A lot.

Fried eggs, shaved then sautéed asparagus and bacon.  Shaved asparagus is my new favorite thing to do.

Crab cakes, corn on the cob, grilled asparagus.

Steamed, then chopped broccoli with a crab cake and runny eggs.

Braised short ribs, buttermilk mashed potatoes with roasted green beans.

Workouts….ummmmm

We made it to the gym (once).

We took several walks.

But, mostly…

The past couple of weeks have been wonderful.  We’ve spent time with family and lots of time with each other.

Oh, before I go, I have to share my new blog obsession….Organized Charm

It is a fabulous blog about organization but not just home organization, LIFE organization.  When you get a minute (or 1,000), check her out!
