Much quieter week may have been an understatement--lol!
Monday I had Dagan and Leah drop the boys over here so they could go to the parent-teacher conferences. They brought Burger King for dinner afterwards and we all ate here. I am terrible at remembering to take pictures when I have actual company. Liam worked on coloring a mandala I tore out of the coloring book. Used Gramma's good markers and was pretty careful about not pressing too hard. ;)
Those of you who are new...I decided to go wild and buy up cheap shower curtains so I can change them as often as I want. Before this recent shift, I think I averaged a good 20 years per shower curtain, towels, and bathroom rugs, too. In fact, I think I had this one flora one for closer to 30 years. Now I find I usually change them after Keanna has been here--every two weeks. I probably have a dozen of them! Inexpensive, fun way to change the atmosphere of the whole bathroom. Liam will run in to see which shower curtain I have up whenever they come over. They have also borrowed a shower curtain every once in a while to change up their bathroom at home. Makes me smile.
The rest of the week...I mostly collapsed. Did laundry, made some food, and ran the dishwasher...the usual "have-to" stuff. Wrote some letters and a Thank You card to Dagan and Leah's friends for all their help. Allie rested up a lot, too. :)
I watched the rest of season 2 of Severance (wow!) and a couple of miniseries on BritBox (Catch Me A Killer and Payback)...plus a lot of fun YT videos to help erase what political news I did see. Oh and changed my dental checkup again--lol! Told her we might as well try for a year vs 6 months because my immune system is still so bad my gums are still inflamed. Told her I am just starting on antibiotics for three months so that might help. Plus with the skin cancer above my lip...well, ever since the biopsy it bleeds quite easily. So now I have my checkup scheduled for the beginning of June.

Was mostly a very quiet, solitary week after Tuesday. I honestly needed the time to recuperate from the week before--lol!
Sunday woke up to a bit of snow overnight! Not enough to cover the tops of all the grass, but I'll take it. :)
I've been just plain exhausted. Even fell asleep for naps twice this past week. As you can see, I didn't even take pictures--lol! So, this will be one of the shortest posts from me in a long time. I hope you are all doing well and that you have a wonderful week! Oh, and it is my 74th birthday on Friday. I am so glad to still be here!! Till next time...

Happy upcoming birthday! You sound pretty active to me.
Happy birthday coming up. Many more to come, I am sure.
Happy soon to be birthday, friend!
That is one colorful shower curtain! I have heard that Severance is a good show, but we do not have the streaming service that provides it.
Happy upcoming birthday! Hurray for naps. Please don’t hesitate to take them when you need them. ❤️
That is a cheerful shower curtain. Make sure you get plenty of rest before you have your birthday celebration. We are also glad you are still here!
Do what you can do! Hope you have a wonderful birthday on Friday!
Severance, wow indeed! The creator and writer of that show is a local guy so I'm happy for his success. Love the shower curtain idea but I don't have the energy to change mine out although I do change out the plastic liner. Sorry for the tiredness! It's frustrating to want to do so much and then our bodies won't let us.
Hi Rita! Have a wonderful birthday on Friday, my friend. 74 years is quite an achievement! I love those colorful shower curtains. I hope you can get some rest and feel better soon.
Happy Birthday week. Love that shower curtain. The colors are bright and cheery. Rest up and feel better soon. When the weather isn't good I always feel sluggish. It's been a bit colder here after the really warm weather we had and my energy level has dropped.
I'm not surprised you are exhausted. You've had a lot on your plate. Just rest and chill so you can enjoy your birthday! I hope it's just the first day of a wonderful and exciting new year!
Your shower curtain is fantastic, what a wonderful idea to change it often to change the atmosphere... best wishes to you. It's your birthday week, so I'll have to stop by again on Friday.
That shower curtain mix and match idea was inspired. Actually I'd be happy to get even a couple of curtains to alternate that are as bright and cheery as yours . I just don't know what it is about English people and shower curtains but I don't think I ever found a nice one. Take care, rest and you will be ready for a Happy birthday ! ,.
How lovely to have your grands company. Sounds like a fun time. I like your new shower curtain. I would much prefer to have a shower curtain I can change rather than these glass doors that are a real pain to me. This way you can change the style in your bathroom, that’s what I would love to do and the different scenes are always fun. I don’t know Severance so I should look it up. I enjoy good cops and robbers shows so thanks for the recommends. Good idea with the dentist. Glad you had a nice quiet week. We need those! Lovely view of the snow outside your window. Naps are really good when you are trying to catch up on sleep and you've had a lot to deal with so need your rest. Happy, Happy Birthday for Friday my friend! I’ll be sending you hugs and warm wishes on your special day.
Birthday card and letter are on the way via UPS. I sent them Friday so I hope you have them by your birthday. It's nice the boys could come to your place. You'll be such a help to Dagan and Leah after you move in. The boys will tell their friends all about the fun things they do with gramma.
Love,
Janie
Reading this reminds me I have to wash our shower curtain
Most afternoons I am feeling worn out and exhausted
