If we were having coffee, it would be more of the same…so busy…so much to do…so tired! It seems that’s the story of my life these days.
Anderson’s birthday trip was quite a success! They didn’t have to pay the extra person rate for me because the reservation was for four and they didn’t count Spencer because he’s under three. I was happy about that because I don’t like to cause anyone to spend on me!
My youngest daughter was supposed to be up here from California yesterday but by the time they got the cars loaded and everything ready to go, it was almost 3 PM and it’s about a ten to eleven hour drive so they wisely chose to stay there for one more day. They are finally on their way now. I was hoping they got an early start but not so much…they didn’t leave til 11 AM. At least they will be here before midnight. I have the key to the house so I will need to go meet them with the key. I will actually go early because the place smells like paint and I want to air it out a little bit before they arrive. I am also taking them a couple of boxes with essentials like paper towels, toilet paper, soap, etc., an air mattress (their furniture doesn’t arrive til later in the week), and a few groceries. So I will go early and hang out til they get in. I’m excited to have them here! Let’s see if I can relax today until they arrive!
The baby shower I am giving for my daughter-in-law is next Saturday. Yesterday, I sent out reminder emails to the people we hadn’t heard from as there was only one person that had replied! Within minutes I heard back from everyone but one. All are coming! We’ll see if that last lady replies. So that’s the next thing on the agenda…baby shower preparations then the drive up north on Friday afternoon.
I’m trying to get some reading done but it seems that by the time I get to the reading, I’m so tired that I fall asleep within just minutes. 😦 Hopefully once the shower is over with, I can get more reading done. I am way, way, way behind. I was going to participate in A to Z this year but I’m having second thoughts. I’m just not feeling like I need to put myself through it. I will probably still post everyday but I’m not doing a theme of any kind.
Other than some complaint about a Jamberry party on Facebook that is going nowhere…no one participating and the hostess remains pretty uninvolved…I think that’s about all on this end. I was so busy and distracted this week that I forgot to post a Weekly Smile. I will try to get one of those up tomorrow! Hhm. Gotta find something smile-worthy to share!
That’s it for this coffee share post. I’m actually off to fix another cup. I’ve been up since before 5 and it is just after noon so I need some coffee if I’m going to stay awake until Miss Susie arrives in another nine hours! See you next time!

I love the jamberries! I’m just not skilled enough to get them on correctly!
Know what you mean about being tired! With all you do, I’m not at all surprised! I need a day of just doing nothing but sleeping!
You don’t have to have a theme to participate in A-Z do you? Just pick a topic that starts with the letter of the day! ☺️

Jamberry application will get easier each time you do it. I can also link you to a way to make templates of each nail so you will be able to size them better.
I was going to do a theme for A to Z but if I end up doing it, I won’t. I’ll just go with it and find something to blog about each day. We’ll see. It also depends on when the baby comes. He’s not due til mid May but we’ll see if he pops out early. If that happens then I will be up there, at least for a few days. We’ll see.

Hey Barbara! Good to see you here! I lost track of you after A to Z last year! I’m not sure if I’ll do A to Z again. I signed up. No theme comes to mind so if I do it, it will be a themeless A to Z.

Nice that you are getting the housevready for your family. They will be tired. Like yoi there have been days when I have been too tired to read.

You have been busy. I hope all goes well with the baby shower. Isn’t it weird how people don’t feel the need to RSVP to things anymore? I’ve found that to be true for many things that we have. I think that your Weekly Smile should be about your daughter moving near by. That is definitely something to smile about. 😊
