This was a week for personal maintenance: a doctor’s appointment and a hair cut. Also, we received our final plans from the architect (sharing soon) and last weekend I tried four new recipes, all keepers.
Doesn’t it feel great when you know you’ve been productive?

Can’t you just taste the gravy?

My soul yearns for gorgeous misty morning and I can remember back in the day, how careful that was but nevermore.
That’s very poetic, Heather! Are you channeling Poe?
We who “suffered” through the days of few safety rules, laugh at the way children are raised today. I’m surprised I didn’t break any bones jumping from the roof of the garage, riding my bike without a helmet or climbing the tree in my front yard. We were sturdy, while the child next door jumped off the swing of his weenie swing set and broke his arm. It is really a wonder that we came through relatively unscathed.
Yes, now the CPS is called if children are allowed to roam free. (Wasn’t there a national news story about that?) Crazy!
Woah. I gasped at the thought of having my kids play around the roof! I’m a new-generation parent and I simply cannot imagine me permitting them to do that – with the heat of the sun and the danger it entails! But it sure looks like you were all having fun back in the day.
Yeah, it’s pretty amazing what used to be perfectly acceptable way back when. Thanks for commented, Alfred!
