Sunday afternoon. A good time to get out of bed.

. . . . and go out to EAT again!

My lovely mother-in-law often takes us out to eat on a Sunday afternoon. Bless her. Bless her sweet generous heart. I've been very lucky with the whole mother-in-law thing. Some people aren't. I'm sorry for them, because my mother-in-law is a kind helpful person who has always been good to me. And my kids are both home today! How cool is that? Way cool, I'm telling you now.

We used to eat out a lot, before the Apocolypse hit us so hard. In trying to find some good that came from that, I guess I do know the names of the four horsemen now. Is that a positive or a negative?

Actually, I have also discovered that there are more than four.

Hey! The flowers I planted yesterday are still alive!

Neil Finn and Ben Folds and Finlay Quaye. This is one of the best mixes I ever made.

I think I'll pose my kids beside my flowers and take a few pictures, before they wilt. The flowers, I mean.

I love how my husband buys me those pretty bouquets all the time. There is just something about fresh flowers in a room. . . . He knows I love them, so he buys them for me. How sweet is that?

I hear voices in the living room. My family is having fun in there without me! I must join them and participate.
