Post #500 in this series - wow! Thank you, LeeAnna, for hosting this enjoyable weekly group. I usually think about and collect ideas for this post all week. It has made me pay closer attention to the good things in my life.
Things like getting a new garage door opener! 👍 We've had to haul it up and down manually for two weeks. (Poor us...:) What a nice treat to just push a button once again! It's sort of space age looking, lol!
I have enjoyed working on this sunflower design this week. I really like the look of the center of the flower. There's still a border to stitch all the way around, but that should go quickly.
A friend served me this flavored sparkling water the other day, and I really liked it. So I bought some for our house, and have been enjoying a cold, fizzy drink in the afternoon.
I loved this book! Such a good story. It's historical fiction, set in 1920, about the first group of women to be admitted to Oxford University. There are four main characters that you get to know as the book goes on - and lots of interesting things about their lives.
LeeAnna's question of the week is- what has been the highlight of your week? And I have to say, the highlight is coming up and hasn't happened quite yet. But here's a hint!
Oooo! Where are you going??? I hope it’s a fun adventure! I’m fond of a fizzy drink myself. That book looks interesting. I will have to add it to my TBR list. (To be read). Gail at the cozy quilter.
ReplyDeleteI like fizzy drinks too! Peach sounds good. I sure like your little sunflower cross stitch. I'll add no garage door opener to my list of 1st world problems - we add to it all the time - lol! Oh I'm excited for your trip, will it involve a beach?
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good book! Have a safe and fun trip, wherever you are headed.
ReplyDeleteOh! You are travelling! Me too!
ReplyDeleteHave fun traveling!
ReplyDeleteGarage door openers are terrific. I'm so glad we put ours in. :-)
Yah! A vacation! I hope you have a wonderful time, Diann. A garage door opener is so nice. It's those little things that really make a difference. Your sunflower sampler is looking fabulous. I am so very grateful that you added it to your stitching list. Have a fabulous day. Hugs.
ReplyDeletethe fizzy drink looks good I have not seen that brand. I think I see an ocean in your future - a birthday trip perhaps?
ReplyDeleteI've had The Eights on my TBR pile for a while now, looking forward to it now.
