Thankful Thursday #14

I had a great Easter weekend.

On Friday night, my niece and I had a girls night out. We had pedicures done so out toes would be pretty for Sunday. We also had dinner out and did a little shopping. I bought a new pair of shoes that I absolutely love (which is saying a lot because I hate shoe shopping). Then we game home and watched a movie.

On Saturday, I went with my sister and the kids to an Easter egg hunt and picnic. The weather was absolutely beautiful. So when I got home I laid out on my back deck to get some sun and just enjoy the day.

On Sunday, I attended a wonderful worship service with almost my whole family. My nephew was baptized and then we all headed to Mom and Dad's for lunch. Later that evening when I was at home I again sat on my back deck. The weather was just perfect the sun was starting to go down and there was a gentle breeze. The pollen had made my eyes gunky so I closed them to just enjoy the sounds and feel of nature and peacefully slumbered for about 30 minutes.

The work week has gone pretty well. I am finally able to see parts of desk as a unearth it from the piles of paperwork that has been accumulating.

Today we had a nice rain. The pollen has been horrendous. I keep my windows open and I have a nice film of yellow pollen on most surfaces. But the rain today has clear the air and everything outside looks clean (now if I could only hose down the inside of my house).
