Peony’s Friday Five
1. How many houses/apartments have you lived in throughout your life? Eighteen. (My dad was in the military.) 2. Which was your favorite and why?

This and that
This and that Finally made it to Tiny Tots Funfit this morning — the class has been cancelled, Friday after Friday, because of the weather. We have missed as many classes as we have attended (four.)

Make a list of the lists I need to make: things to do, places to go (Confession, Target, bookstore, grocery store), things to buy at those stores. 3. Make a list of my backlogged books (booklog?) and read them before I allow… Continue reading Scattered.
A nice Friday that felt like a Saturday
My husband stayed home today (previously planned, just for a break) so we had a nice family day together. Slept late; made waffles for breakfast. First time I’ve ever made them, so I was pleased when they came out edible. Hambet seemed to like them, even though he called them “awfuls.” Took Hambet to his… Continue reading A nice Friday that felt like a Saturday
