This and That

Hello and happy Friday. I feel like I don’t have a lot to share with you. Things have been really busy. Work is always a little crazy in July but this year has been even busier than last year.

Last Friday night I had dinner with a couple of friends. We went to the Peach Street Grill again. They were packed. Luckily we got there before it got too busy. We had a nice dinner. It was great catching up.

I worked for a few hours on Saturday so that cut into my weekend a bit. On Sunday I did the usual laundry, cooked dinner and then decided to make some chocolate chip cookies to take to work for my coworkers. I did both chocolate chip and white chocolate chip. They were yummy.

Last weekend I also put new curtains in my kitchen. I got these on Amazon and I love them. The others were really old and needed to be replaced. I should have done a before and after pic but I forgot. I am using a lot of black accents in my kitchen. I am planning to switch my cabinet and drawer pulls to black.

I abandoned the book, A Little Life, because I just didn’t have time to read it not because it wasn’t a good book, and downloaded an audio book. I felt like I needed to return the Little Life book because there was a wait for it. I may buy it later and then I can read it at my leisure with no one waiting for me to finish it. At least I can listen to my audio book while I’m in the car. His and Hers is a murder mystery and very creepy. I have so many thoughts on who the murderer is.

The Crepe Myrtle trees are blooming and so beautiful. I just love the different colors.

Wednesday I took my sister to Knoxville for out patient surgery. While we were in the waiting room a couple came in with two adorable dogs. I think they may have been Golden Doodles. I’m not sure. One was named Shiloh and the other Gracie. They were going from person to person and letting them pet the babies, if they wanted to, some people don’t care for dogs. I can’t imagine that but some people don’t. I ask them if I could take a picture of them. And they said yes. They have permission from the hospital to bring the dogs into the waiting areas. They said it makes people so happy seeing them and it helps relieve stress while waiting to hear news about their loved ones.

I took off a couple of hours from work yesterday to get my hair done. Much needed. So a very busy week. I haven’t had much of a chance to catch up with my blog or reading my favorite blogs. My husband and I are headed to Vegas next week to attend the annual Star Trek Convention, we’re such nerds, and then take a short trip into Utah to Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon.

That is what has been going on in my world how about you?

I leave you with another picture of my big boy Gus who seems to think he is King of the kitties. At least he looks like it in this picture.

Always remember

Love your day your way!!!
