Happy Wednesday...


It's a beautiful day in my neighborhood! Blue sky, birdies singing, flowers popping up.
It feels good...
I need to get some water on the yard. It's so ugly at the moment. They will come Monday to turn the sprinkler system on. I can't wait for my beautiful, lush green grass again!
I got my arrangements all made for going to California next week to see #2 son and to enjoy his Fire Academy graduation. I am so ready for something 'different'. It will be so good to hug his neck and visit with him. I told him I'd like to go see the ocean, about 2 hours away from where he's at. He also mentioned taking me to Reno. I'm trying to keep myself from getting all worked up about getting myself to the airport, tho. I have a 4 hour drive to the airport in Phoenix, from home. I'm going to just park my van there while I'm gone. I saved a bunch of money flying out of PHX vs. Tucson, plus, I got non-stop flights both ways. I also decided just to stay in Jeffrey's room and boot him out to the couch! LOL I told him we could get a blow-up mattress for him, tho. He lives in a big house with 4 other guys, but, he said they are gone most of the time. I'm sure we'll only be there to sleep and shower, so, it won't be TOO bad! We may be going on a couple of trips, anyway, so, we may be in motel rooms for a couple nights. I'm leaving Wednesday and coming home the following Monday. I wish I could stay longer, but, he has make-up work for the Reserves 4 days in a row, starting Tuesday.
I had a very nice phone conversation with #1 son yesterday noon, also, so, I feel very content. Today, I'm going to lunch with my friend, Ruthie. I always look forward to that.
When I get home, I've got some eBay items to get packaged and ready to mail for hubby. I also want to find some time to get in my craft/crap room...I feel the need to make something! LOL
I have a question for anyone reading this....
Do you re-use coffee grounds, and how?? I let mine dry, and sprinkle them on my flowerbeds. What else could they be used for? Leave me a comment with what you do with them. Thanks!
count your blessings...
