Weekends: Family Edition

The noise began well before 7 am. 
I woke up, turned on the air purifier and my fan, both loud enough to drown it out, and went back to bed. 
It's nearly always Drei who wakes up before the chickens, and he's the one you really don't want roaming without supervision.

Change may be just around the corner

I was up early finishing up the last-minute things one always has to do.
I spent the day folding and putting away laundry.
Note to self: just because you're not naked doesn't mean you should do your laundry regularly.
Boy, that was a lot of work.

I run on caffeine and pure exhaustion.

It was good that we took yesterday as a movie and rest day.
Today was not a rest day.

We got to the store and got our groceries in.
We came home and ate dinner. 

“I’m tired of carrying the weight of people who don’t carry me.”

When I said I was taking Wednesday as a rest day, I really meant I was taking it as a rest day. 
After Cowboy went to work, Badger and I took a walk around our block. 
Part of her therapy is to get out of the house, get some exercise and fresh air. 
That was accomplished.

The peace of the morning walk is unmatched

Badger and I were up practically at the crack of dawn, if 8:30 a.m. is the crack of dawn. 
We were chasing birds, but didn’t see very many. 
You’d think there’d be tons out that early in the day, but no. 

But even a bad cup of coffee is better than no coffee at all

Today was another do-nothing day.

Badger and Cowboy were gone most of the morning. 
Mondays are Badger’s appointment days.

Spring awakening, Easter celebrating

I hope everyone had a good Easter. 
It was a quiet one here.

I think we may be in Dogwood Winter.
It rained overnight and was considerably cooler today.
With global warming you can no longer go by the old signs though.
Things that used to have a set growing season are coming up earlier or later now.
