Good morning
The cats allowed me to sleep in again. Good thing because both DW and I have been feeling quite sleep deprived this week.
Debbie - It's nice to see you back in your usual spot in the morning
Before I forget - thanks for sharing some of your vacation meal planning and implementation with us. It's almost migration season here and we will be away from home on occasion so it's always nice to see what others do in those situations. I also loved your pics and want to visit those places now
Ruth - I've always admired your BS
It's so nice seeing you in the morning again!
Twynn - Did you brave the cold? I'm such a wimp about that.
How exciting watching your new yard bloom. I bet there will be some fun surprises.
Cottage - Wow, Jake made the coffee even though he's sick?! Wow, definitely a keeper, but obviously you know that already
Karen - I second Cottage's suggestion. It's not the calories so much, you can always work those off on the treadmill, it's the processed grain and probable sugars that would worry me. Good luck whatever you decide. I know you will hop right back on either way.
Hope all goes as well as possible with the MRI. I"m glad you had that looked at and the doctor is taking it seriously.
It's another spring cleaning, cooking, planting weekend around here. DW has a website to finish for a local CSA so she will be working on that all day today. I'm going to make another snack cake using some of my dried strawberry stash. Has anyone tried freezing the cake? I want to do a week of Phase 1 starting Monday and don't want the cake sitting around.
On the work front we actually had some success with the House. The cuts to our agencies were removed for this fiscal year with implementation of the changes moved to the next fiscal year rather than midway through the upcoming year. This gives us time to plan and to work with the Division to find ways to make the process more efficient while still meeting the needs of vulnerable families. Now let's hope the Senate and gov go along with it. Never doubt that making a lot of noise and telling the important stories can make a difference.
Time to get a To Do list started for the weekend. #1-drink coffee. That's something I can fit in
