Rain, rain, rain. Luckily we are above the freezing point as the forecast was for another snowstorm! Lots of wind too. Perfect day to stay inside and do stuff. But rivers are under flood warning.
I've started my springcleaning a few weeks back and continuing with that.
I took last Tuesday off from work and got lots done.
With the upcoming Easter holidays we get a 4-day weekend, so that's good.
We babysat the dog on Saturday night too. My son and his girlfriend came by on Friday night and also spent the afternoon here on Saturday.
Sunday we went for a quick visit to my daughters and we brought her her bday gift. She might not make it to go with us next week to my parent's house for Easter as she has lots of studying to do.

On my to-do list
Over the weekend I baked muffins, prepped overnight oats, spring-deep-cleaned my bedroom: walls-woodwork-furniture-light fixture-inside windows-blinds. Last Tuesday I did the same in the LR (couches still need to be done). Emptied bathroom cabinets as we sold them and they will be picked up this week. Laundry, air curtains and wouldn't you know it the clothesline broke and it all fell in the snow-mud-water... had to rewash everything. I vaccumed all main floor too.

Quote of the week
Good morning, Lucy! "Rain, rain go away! Come again another day!" Not fun that you had to rewash what fell in the snow, mud, and water, but am glad you're above freezing at this point anyway. I love the bunny garland! Any chance of sharing your pattern? Have a blessed week ahead, my friend, and I'm praying sunshine and warmer temperatures your way! <3
ReplyDeleteI too am glad we are above freezing this week. The pattern I used is this one from Red Heart: https://www.redheart.com/free-patterns/bunny-garland
ReplyDeleteIt was quite quick and easy after I got the 1st one done.
I LOVE your bunny garland! - too cute! Your Maxine cartoon is GREAT too - so appropriate for this seemingly never ending winter. I see you too are looking to the future and Christmas - what a crazy year. Have a WONDERFUL week and Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteGood morning!
ReplyDeleteYour bunny garland is adorable!
It looks perfect!
We have some snow flurries today after the thunderstorms last night.
Yesterday was a beautiful day.
Spring in Pennsylvania!
Have a cozy day.
oh my goodness! I can't imagine still dealing with snow this time of the year! tour Maxine post cracked me up! I hope you enjoy you three day work and have blessed Easter! Love, love, loved your bunny garland! It was so cute!
ReplyDeleteI had to look up what Tourtière was and it sounds amazing. I should start on spring cleaning here, if we ever get over these awful colds that is.
ReplyDeleteThe bunny garland is just to cute for words! I love simple adorable projects like that.
