Love my quiet Monday mornings... this weekend really did a number on the house - with laundry piled high and schtuff everywhere - I'm taking the morning to get things picked up and the laundry going. Love this process. It feels so good to get cleaned up and organized after the tornado weekends bring. I'm putting on my new Norah Jones CD and working my way around the house... good stuff.
Asia is home this week. He was gone last week, and with my flying over to Portland on Wednesday for Charlie's funeral (and having to make sure the dog and kids were cared for in my absence) I felt like my whole week was one big long stressful exhausting day. I didn't sleep well. And I was fighting a cold. So it's good he's home this week. I finally feel rested, after taking a three hour nap on Saturday... amazing how having another adult in the house helps me relax. Especially when it's my best friend. So glad I'm blessed with him in my life.
E. is wrestling this spring - he had his first meet on Saturday. I couldn't be there because I had to work - but he won one match, tied one, and lost one. A decent start, I thought. He looks hilarious in his little singlet. I've never been a huge wrestling fan, but this is a great program, sponsered by the high school he will attend someday - so he's a little Lewis & Clark Tiger ... too cute. A friend of ours coaches at the high school and is there when E. practices, so that's fun too.
I feel peaceful this morning. Ready for the week ahead. Grateful for my home. And my family. And God.
Happy Monday, friends. Have a wonderful day.

Cathy....I can't BELIEVE there is no photo of E in his wrestling outfit on your blog! Photos!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I totally agree...naps are wonderful things.
I have the new Norah CD, too! What do you think? It's a little dark, I thought. It's growing on me. I love her voice...that's totally how I sound in the shower! Have you noticed the similarities?
