Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! Bright sunlight is alreadyflooding the backyard, and it'll be like this all day. The high will be a little warmer than yesterday - upper 70s, maybe 80. But I'll be stuck inside anyway! LOL!
It was a very productive weekend. A lot of things got planted (and even some weeding); winter curtains are packed away; my pretty new monitor shelf is ready to take to work. I have lots more projects to get done too. I really want to get back to sewing, so getting my sewing area cleaned and organized is my next major project.
I don't know if I'll have class tonight or not - the last 2 have been cancelled. Either way, I'll get to watch - some or all - of Dancing. If no class, I'll try to get the Easter stuff taken upstairs and packed away.
I have a special favor to ask: would you all please say an extra prayer for my Mom (hip surgery) today!
