Well, mom got her new couch and loveseat today....and they actually delivered it on time! Hey, for a $70 delivery fee, it should be on time! We went over there tonight for stuffed cabbage, and to try out the new seating arrangement. Let me just say that overstuffed leather reclining couches are spectacular. Oh man, I could have slept there all night! She made a great purchase....and the cabbage wasn't bad either.
Wee one is sleeping over at a friend's house tonight. It was this girl's birthday last month, and the party would have fallen on spring break, so they decided to wait. They were going to a local dinner/game/gocart/mini-golf place. Needless to say, wee one was quite excited to go. We ended up getting the little girl some Polly Pockets. Wee one has an extensive collection, so I decided to pick them up when I was shopping alone....to avoid having to buy two sets. I mean, come on....how many toys can one child have? Apparently, thousands....
I don't know what it is lately but everyone on our street is having trees cut down. Three people this week alone! And not just a small tree....huge freaking trees! Our neighbor took one down that was between our houses, and it looks so bare now. But, it needed to be done because the roots would have eventually grown under our driveway and caused it to crack. Can't have that!
Tomorrow is raking day....whoopie. We are going to rake and get the yard ready for landscaping. I'm kind of looking forward to it....kind of because I'm lazy. I mean, I want it to look good, but I'm really lazy so it's going to be a long day standing out there raking over and over. I have to be in the mood for yard work and for some reason, I haven't been. I was for a few days....but the feeling has dissipated. My thumb has yet to turn green this season....I'm still in winter mode.
Okay, I'm ready for bed. I spent the entire day cleaning and rearranging furniture.It was so peaceful. I haven't done that in a while and it was so nice just to be "one with the furnishings". And I've got a gorgeous new arrangement to boot!
Have a great weekend....

You will have to post pics of your yard work. Yes that couch sounds wonderfl. wish I had it here but my dogs in leather whoo thier nails. yeh I have to get inspired too. We finally got warm temps and I have been somewhat inspired but this camper slowed me down. HEY I remember when Rachael had polly pockets all over. I loved that. She is so too old now. OH Man I Miss them days. :<{
Lazy is not a word I would use to describe you. You are anything but lazy!!
Our neighbhorhood was covered in trees and they all were cut down when I was pregnant with Bri. I was confused and bewildered just the same. Turns out half the neighborhood was offered free new curbs and that was the reason and then they all got baby trees. But of course not our block! The party sounds nice. I hope she had a great time. Polly pockets are the best!
Can't wait to see the pics of the new furniture! And, our neighborhood is doing the same thing, chopping the hell out of beautiful trees!! There is really no reason for it that I can see other than they want the sun to hit their lawns more or something. I would much rather have the wonderful shade the 2 big Oak trees provide in my front yard. :)
Hugs and love, Lisa
