Today was beautiful but I spent most of it resting and napping!

Still not feeling great! I will be going to work tomorrow but I'll call the Dr. and make an appt. for the early afternoon. I have a slight fever now and I feel miserable. Pretty sure it is a sinus infection. I did go out in the courtyard for a little bit today and here are some pics I took of Spring!!


My Tree Peony that I brought from NJ 6 years ago is start to unfurl its leaves!Definitely a sign that Spring is just around the corner!


My daylilies are poking their leaves up too!


The chives are coming up and are about 3 1/2 inches tall already-I can almost use them!


I brought my Lenten Roses with me from the other house and here is one of them blooming. There is another bud just ready to open too. I think they are just beautiful!


Here is a closeup of the Lenten Rose.

Definitely under the weather today!

Well I have finally got up out of my chair. I have not been feeling good all day-running a fever, runny nose, watery eyes, etc. I think I have officially caught John's cold. I am going back to my chair! Hopefully tomorrow I'll feel better.

Here is the alligator made from cupcakes!

Saturday night I went to Megan's house to watch her neighbors, friends, Jenny and Megan play Bunco. Jenny was actually hosting the event at Megan's house. The theme was Mardi Gras. Megan made Jambalaya and some of the neighbors brought chips and dip. We all wore alot of Mardi Gras beads and drank Hurricanes! It was alot of fun!

I'm trying to fight off a cold!

I have been trying to fight off this cold for about 3 days now. I have been taking Airborne, going to sleep early, drinking tea with honey in it and you name it I'm trying it. That is why I haven't been blogging that much lately. Tonight I'm just chilling out watching American Idol and then I'll go to bed early. Hopefully I'll be back to my old self real soon!

Too much computer time!

I have made a decision to stay off of Facebook. It was taking too much of my time and I was sitting at the computer way too much. I got hooked on playing a game on there called Farmville. I want to read, garden and take walks more so while I will keep the Facebook page, I will not be on there much. Sometimes you just have to make good changes in your life and that was mine. I will keep blogging as much as I have been-I wouldn't give that up! I love blogging and checking in with everyone.

Hope everyone is having a happy Monday!

Major jewelry making today!

I am happy to say I've made 7 pairs of earrings today! I made them in all different colors of green-kind of a St. Patrick's Day theme! I posted them on my etsy site if anyone is interested.

Off to make dinner for John and I! He will finally be off from work tonight!!

A little of this and a little of that this weekend

This weekend I have a list of things I want to get done. First I need to clean 3 closets (1 clothes closet and 2 guest room closets). I also would like to read one of the books I am reviewing. Saturday or Sunday I will be creating some more jewelry to put on my etsy site. I will probably make some green gemstone earrings in honor of St. Patrick's Day, which is next month. Saturday night I'll be going over to Megan's (Jenny will be there too) and visit with them for a little while. I also want to clean up the courtyard a little. I have plants that need to be cut back and some that need to be thrown away. I also need to bring out all my Beleek china to decorate for St. Patrick's Day. None of these things should take too long, but it will be enough to keep me busy all weekend!

Everyone have a good one!
