I wanted to write mainly because yesterday was a truly lovely day, and I know that expressing gratitude always makes me feel even better. Gratitude should not be underestimated.
And so, here I am today, having just woken up with a happy feeling left over from such Good Friday Goodness, and I am prepared to express.
Why was yesterday such a good day? First, the weather was AMAZING. Super warm at 15 degrees Celsius. Of course, it was also a holiday, so I wasn't even waiting to see if I would get a call to work, and after leisurely morning tea I got busy doing a bit of spring cleaning - namely, washing all the windows, inside and out. It was that nice out - I brought the hose out of the garage to leave it hooked up to the spigot in the yard, I removed and hosed down the window screens, I refilled all bird feeders (so we now have four functional feeders for the little beauties),
Today (Saturday) my brother and his girlfriend are coming for Easter dinner, so yesterday I, with my mother and Dexter in tow, also did a few hours of errands such as:
- getting a case of beer at the depanneur
- getting wine at the SAQ
- doing some groceries that we didn't manage the day before
We were tired enough when we got home again, and took a rest and a nap, before I then took Dexter for a nice afternoon walk - so nice to see folks outside again! - and then it was time for our 5 pm appointment at the dog groomer! (Pics coming in a future post).
And on today's agenda? I've got to bring out my large slow cooker (I LOVE slow cookers!) in which I will be cooking my ham, and we've got more spring cleaning to do before company arrives.
Ah, the lovely, happy, quiet life of moi, a simple, suburban spinster :)
