When the going gets rough, write a blog post.

Well, y'all...

life is certainly not boring.

It's been one of those 

weeks where lots of small,

stressful situations

have all hit us at the same time.

But this blog is no place

to dwell on negativity, 

so I'll share some of the good

things that happened this week.

First, Z & I are trying to find

new/more things to do around here.

We know one of the baseball players

on a local college team, 

so we took in a game the other night.

 Then, I got a call from our favorite store, 

Trader Joe's.

When you take your own shopping bag

*at least at our local TJ's*

you get a raffle ticket.

Every so often they draw a name 

to spin the prize wheel & get a free item.

So in the midst of my crazy week

I got to spin the wheel & won some

free TJ's frosted flakes!

I also hosted

9 people from church for

a dinner/committee meeting.
The food was good
& my house is clean.

And thankfully the weather

has been lovely during the day

so I'm enjoying taking my

Mr. Wilson for walks 

around the neighborhood.

When I'm stressed, I like to try to 

do something productive, so I've 

been crocheting lots of new hats

& trying out new patterns & stitches.

I'll be posting some photos of them soon!
