Speaking of Flights...I'm Out Again!



What a weekend! I'm proud to say I did absolutely nothing over the weekend except got caught up blog reading, sleeping,cooking, and vegging! And I even made it the whole weekend without male company!!!! A small feat in self. Last week was a grueling week and this week will bring more work again as I'm leaving today and heading to work at our store in Chevy Chase area to help out with some stylings and helping with some over hauls and some prototypes going on. From there it's off to a event at the Met in New York with Prince Charming, then to Harrisburg to visit family and to see a classical quartet from the Juilliard School of music that were a gift by a sweet blog reader!!! I'm also catching up with my good friend Miranda whose is visiting from Florida. So another whirlwind week coming up. But speaking of flights did anyone watch Pan Am? I liked it. And in other flight news I enjoyed watching the finches this weekend from the bag feeders I have hanging out the kitchen window and one tree. I have to clean the one window often from droppings though, yuck!






So pretty to watch. And like them, I'm off again!!! I'm taking my laptop to blog read in the hotel, but won't be posting. See ya soon!

  1. Our state bird. They show up at the bird feeder in early spring and turn from dull to brilliant yellow - well, at least the males do.
