Random Thoughts Friday
I did a bad, bad thing. I forgot to blog on Friday. So I'm having to confess my sin to the world. Hanging head in shame. Must do better to not get so busy that I forget to converse with my readers.
What are you Reading Thursdays
A few weeks ago I raved about getting to start A Kiss at Midnight by Eloisa James that a friend brought me back from Moonlight & Magnolias 2011. However, I didn't get to start reading it like I had hoped. Recall when I said over the weekend I was reading while getting my pedicure? Well… Continue reading What are you Reading Thursdays

It is really too early in the month for Blackberry Winter, so I guess this year we'll call it a cold snap. These… Continue reading A Cold Snap

That was our Sundays. For Easter, Mother's Day, Homecoming Sunday, Father's Day, and Christmas we always had new… Continue reading Sunday Sundaes
Play Date Saturdays
Today I truly played. I did my housework yesterday and spent most of the day in leisure after running a few errands this morning which included taking flowers by my grandparents grave. In the afternoon I treated myself to a mani/pedi. I don't do this often, but Easter is tomorrow and I couldn't wear my… Continue reading Play Date Saturdays
Random Thoughts Friday
Today is Good Friday. I wonder how many people really know what Good Friday means? My employer calls it Spring Recess now instead of Good Friday, separation of Church and State I guess, but the employees refer to it as what it is. Good Friday is the day Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was crucified… Continue reading Random Thoughts Friday
