Photo Challenge Wednesday - 15.

Week 15 of photos each day.  Are you impressed?  You should be!

The past seven days have been pretty good - especially since I took a few days off to enjoy time at home before my work schedule gets a little wacky.  Time off is usually a very good thing, right? :) So let's dive in and see what this past week brought my way.

Happy Birthday, Roger! How does it feel to be old? :) 

Angela and Macy.  Macy was allllll about some Aunt Lala!

Wednesday, April 9, 2014:  Happy birthday to my brother-in-law, Roger! We celebrated at Mom & Dad's house with spaghetti, cookie and brownies. Yum.  Macy was a total diva, demanding everyone's attention and really hamming it up for Uncle Clay and Aunt Lala.  It was kinda cute. :)

Real mail in my mailbox? YES!

Thursday, April 10, 2014:  My day started in an assisted living facility (as did the 9th), signing residents interested in voting absentee by mail up for their ballots to be mailed to them.  They are the NICEST people and are so thankful to us for coming out to their "home."  It really gives you a lift.  Then I headed to Gaffney to do dindin with Donna (always fun!) and came home to REAL MAIL.  Nothing beats real mail.  LOVE IT.  And I loved the surprises from my penpal/friend in Louisiana! Thank you!

I couldn't help it - she got her Easter basket early. 

Queen of the Leaf Pile! 

Friday, April 11, 2014:  This was one of those days I took off from work.  Beautiful day - loved it! Spent lots of time with Macy, which was wonderful.  Also worked in my flower bed and managed to get one of the three taken care of... not a great record but whatever. I couldn't (still can't) walk right after all that bending over. UGH.

Saturday, April 12, 2104:  I had every intention of getting stuff done around the house but GET REAL, none of that happened. Instead I hit yard sales with Mom and did a quick runthrough at the tractor show up the road.  Macy loves tractors and enjoyed a spin around our houses on the tractor. Cried when she had to get off and go inside! (Country girl all the way!)

Sunday, April 13, 2014:  Sunday I skipped church and slept most of the day. My allergies are killing me and I had no idea the meds were drugging me up severely.  I did do lunch with the family, and thankfully saw Macy in her cute new dress Aunt Beth (that's me!) bought her. Love the monogram! She was so precious. Just a babydoll. She has the wildest hair and it just cracks me up!

Monday, April 14, 2014:  Another off day from work. Whoo hoo! Katie (my sister), Macy and I went for a quick shopping trip and a stop at Chick-fil-a.  Ok, I don't eat chicken (bet you didn't know that) but I LOVE their chicken minis minus the chicken. And their regular biscuits. YUM. So I was a happy girl on Monday morning.  Slept all afternoon, most of the evening and all night. No more allergy meds for me.  Got absolutely nothing outside of one load of laundry done.  Pitiful.

Oh gracious, this looks bad. But no one sees it from this view thank goodness. Three of us are in this space with no barriers, but I think that's changing soon. Which is good, we are all loud ladies!

Tuesday, April 15, 2014:  Well, I made it back to work for this one day, suvived the entire day and am taking Wednesday off (will post this in the morning).  Work is piled up on everyone's desks, we all have random projects going on at once.  Fortunately things are slow for another several days before kicking into gear for me - a few weeks down the road for my coworkers.  So this week is a good one to spend with family before I'm busy busy busy.

And there you go - that's a wrap, my friends!
I hope you are having a lovely week, a great lead into Easter and an appreciation for the blessings we have each been given.  So much to be thankful for, wouldn't you agree?

(Oops, I was supposed to schudule this for Wednesday morning... oh well, enjoy a day early!)
