Hello, Friday!!!
It's time for another round of Celebrate the Small Things. Thanks goes to Lexa Cain, who sponsors this wonderful, weekly hop. Every week, we stop and remember all those small (and big) things which happened these past seven days that put a smile on our faces.
A special thanks also goes to her co-hosts:
L.G. Keltner @ Writing Off The Edge
Katie @ TheCyborgMom
This week, I'm celebrating:
1) Getting that much closer to finally having my revisions done! Just a little more, and it's out the door to all those betas. Yay!
2) A new calf! My youngest son peeked out of the window into the fog this last week and saw the new member of our herd. He's perky and bouncy and terribly cute.
3) New garden chairs! Well, new for us, but in desperate need of repair. Hubs got excited at an auction and picked up a worn table with four chairs. The glass is missing in the table, which he plans on making out of a sheet of steel (maybe with a design in the middle?) at his company (hot table in the sun--but I guess it will keep the food warm *hehehe*) and it looks like I'm refurbishing the chairs (that's what I get for picking up rocking chairs to refurbish this last winter.) The cloth for the seats came yesterday, and it's off to buy spray paint today. See if we can enjoy a bar-b-que on them some time next week.
And what about you? What put a smile on your face? An ice cream cone? A surprise invitation to lunch? Find a penny on the ground in the parking lot?
What put a smile on your face this last week?
Yay for finishing revisions! And for a new calf, =) Hope you have time to restore and enjoy the lawn chairs this week, =)
ReplyDeleteLol! I hope to get those chairs done too. . .but it's amazing how busy the summer gets ;)
DeleteSo, the cow had her calf by herself and your son spotted it through the window? I had the impression (from TV and movies) that birthing a calf required a lot of intervention (and hand insertion) from the farmer. Darn movies. I guess they mostly come out on their own, huh?
ReplyDeleteThis week I'm celebrating my daughter's high school graduation!
There are times when farmers need to help, but only when there are problems. Normally, those calves come all by themselves. Lol! And I hope all of mine do to because...*whew*. . .that's not something I really want to deal with.
DeleteCongrats to your daughter!!!
A new calf and new garden chairs! Enjoy the celebration.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting work done on your revisions :) Have a great weekend
ReplyDeleteHow lovely, a new life to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the refurbishing! That sounds like an exciting project!
ReplyDeleteYou are one busy lady! Congrats on the new calf and the progress on your WIP! (I wish I could say the same.) Good luck on the chairs and have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with revisions and refurbishing.

Today, I'm celebrating heading out to the movies with friends, something I didn't know was happening until about two hours ago. ^_^ Even if it means I have to make sure to write before going out...
ReplyDeleteHi Tonja. I didn't post up Celebrate today - taking some time away.
ReplyDeleteWith a metal table, be careful of plastic cutlery and cups.
Cute calf, and congrats on the revision progress!
So close to getting your revisions done! GO, GO, GO! ^_^
ReplyDeleteNew calf baby is so cute! And standing up and walking already. Why can't we do that? ;)
Such a cute calf. You'll be done with revisions in no time. I'm celebrating crossing numerous things off my to-do list.
ReplyDeleteAwwww...a baby calf...how exciting! I'm glad there were no complications. Good luck with your refurbishing project...post pics when it's all done. Enjoy your weekend!
