Okay, I woke with a sinus headache, drank 2 cups of coffee, took my daily medications, read my email...Hubby was not at the top of his game either and that spells friction in our home, with both us in not so good moods.... I don't know about yours....But, Knew I was in for a different kinda day. Have you ever felt this way? I seem to be in his way today.. and sure didn't feel like going out for the day.. to give us each some space. I have so many things I should do.. (with Company coming Friday) You know beds changed, get guest room ready. Plan a menu for meals, Grocery shop...Although I know we will eat out at least once.. ( and I look forward to that!)
Well as I sat for another hour, I had done nothing long enough.. So got it together.... ( I didn't even tell him I was leaving) I know that was bad.... but...I went to town. ...drove my car through the car wash.. Heck! I treated my car to a real bath, wax and shine.. splurged & got the $10 special..then filled up the tank$35 more dollars.... drove to the butcher shop $30 more dollars spent.. realized as I was coming back I just missed the post lady & I had a rebate to send off... oh well that will be there tomorrow....... gathered an arm load of mail (the 3 books Clay ordered came, now he will be happy...)..I made my way on home, into the garage where I removed the excess paper products from the car.. decided to vacumned the floor mats & washed the inside windows..*how do they get so dirty? Sprayed that "vanilla scent thoroughly inside the car.. Gee I love that smell... Put everything away... and was thinking of that old saying ..how does it go? "When life gives you Lemons.. make lemonade?"
Walked into the house and saw my pretty sunflowers smiling at me.. Thought of Sunshine and that led me to the freezer for some lemonade, searched near the bottom..."Score" I knew I had some.. Defrosted it and Here ya see I made 8 dozen Lemonade cookies.. I know over kill... but now I have plenty...So you see, I got more accomplished today than I thought I would and I feel pretty good right now.. and I have cookies for company..and my husband.. What can be better than that? Would I be pushing my luck to think he might tend the BBQ for dinner?
For those interested: I posted the recipe for the lemonade cookies over on "this hens a cookin". (just click on the egg carton on the side bar to get into the kitchen....)
