My Weekend

I had a very good weekend. Friday evening after work I stopped by the grocery store to get that task out of the way.

That left Saturday for household responsibilities. After some blogging time and Bible study and even a little bit of college class study, I got started cleaning mid morning on Saturday. I was able to accomplish the normal weekly cleaning tasks and a couple of extra projects too. I took time out in early afternoon to watch Bucket List with my husband. It was a good movie. It felt really good going to bed with my house, laundry, and yard work all in good shape. I even had lunch mostly prepared for the next day.

Sunday morning included checking in on final photo challenge comments and pictures and making dessert, Dirt and Worms, for lunch before going to my wonderful "Heartstrings" ladies class and church service. Arriving back home, I put the finishing touches on lunch. Two of our sons and our daughter-in-law were here for lunch. We had a nice meal and visit.

Rusty and Kirsten showed us pictures and movie clips of their recent visit to her brother's in California. They had especially enjoyed Universal Studios.

After everyone left and the kitchen was cleaned up, I did a bit of reading for my Economics class.

Around 5:30, I went to the local half-way house to meet with Cindy who had visited our Heartstrings class last week. (I wrote about her visit to our home last week.) We weren't having small group, so Cindy and I ended up at Town Lake Park for a visit on a park bench. Another new friend to get to know.

Some more study time and my weekend is through.

New Friends

Sometime during the last week I stumbled onto the Communication Photo Challenge. I thought it would be fun to participate and it was a lot of FUN. I enjoyed reading the comments and looking at the other pictures and reading some of the other participants posts and profiles. I find myself anxious to see what is going on in the lives of my new found friends lives and thinking that I'd like to share more of my life and thoughts with them.

I'm a bit afraid that my obsessive, impulsive nature will allow this new interest to interfere with my already hectic life and responsibilities.

Somehow, I think I will receive inspiration from each of my new blog friends to be a better person in all areas of my life.
