Good morning!! It's a wonderful morning. It's still grayish and drippy ... but it's NOT cold! LOL! It will go into the upper 60s today, and this spring weather - rain and all - is just glorious!
Last night I managed to watch the AI results show. There were no huge surprises. I will say as of right now, my top favorites are Crystal and "Big Mike". I also got laundry caught up, and I think I have everything packed. It's not like I need to take everything I own for one quick weekend! LOL!
My husband brought me home a brand new sewing machine ... and I was much more interested in playing with that than anything. Next week, I will absolutely get sewing done!! :)
