A Little of This and That

Popping in a for a quick post.

Hubby has been on spring break this week so my so called schedule has been interrupted. We have helped out at my son's place. I will try and do a post next week on the progress with the house. He is getting some furniture tomorrow - a gift from Grandma. He is pretty excited. More on that next week.

My daughter had a tree cut down yesterday. I don't remember what kind it was, but it was an all above ground roots kind of tree. No easy walking, so they replaced it with a palm tree. The kind I can't recall. Two of the neighbors came out to help them plant it. They have been so excited to be in a neighborhood with friendly people who walk the sidewalks and just stop to chat.



Hubby helped them plant azaleas and olive trees last week. Sod is next. This is the side yard. They are kind on a curve so they have an angled lot.

My son-in-law also got some free pavers so the did the corner in the back yard.


We went to see The Shack last night. Y'all it was so good. Octavia Spencer is amazing!!! She is my new all time favorite actress. If you read the book it is a must see movie in my opinion. 

I got an email that Spartina 449 had a new line of purses out. Oh my...

I love these three.




My old self would have immediately chosen one to order. Bing Bang Done. My new self is going to think this out ---do I really need it...or what am I going to get rid in order to have a new one.

Oh well, we are going to Auburn and the cabin for the weekend. We will go to a baseball game on Saturday. I am hoping it is warm. I am so ready for the temperatures we had in February to come back. The past few days have been awful. I know my northern friends just roll their eyes at that.

I will not be back to posting until Tuesday next week. I know I will need to catch up at home as well as finish a few things at my son's house. I also am caving in and going to the eye doctor on Monday morning. I think it is time for more than readers's. Pooh!

Have a great weekend everyone,
Sandy

    1. I don't need a purse as well especially since I don't work and at home most days. It is just my weakness. I need to resist and spend money on helping my son get set up which is what I will probably došŸ˜ŠThanks for dropping by.

  2. Oh dear! I have a prescription sitting on my desk (for months now) for prescription glasses. I can't bring myself to get them, but my "cheap-o" cheater readers broke, so I'm forced to make the move. Sigh . . . Have a great weekend and I know the weather will be gorgeous for baseball, or whatever!

    1. I am not sure I need them or not, but I have an interesting phenomenon happening. We got a new cable box. The previous one has white lights that displayed the time which I could read. The new one has blue lights and the numbers are larger. I can't read it until I am right up at the box. I think that is something with the lights. However, I have noticed I don't see as well as I once did, so we will see. I know I will hate to wear them if I do need them.

  3. Yall have been busy!! I love all the landscaping at your Daughter's home. I would like to have a palm tree!! I saw those Spartina purses as well but just looked the other way!! I gave some of my purses to my sisters and my niece. I am keeping just what I need. I have not been doing aimless wandering around TJ Maxx and Ross so I have been about to control my impulse buys. I have been cross stitching more!!

    1. I am going to be strong and not purchase the purse. I too have been really resisting the impulse purchases and using it for stitching.
