    I should have ordered Mermaids in the Attic to take on vacation with me. I have to work tomorrow. And Sunday I'll be packing. Woo.. Hoo.. I can't wait to reach 70 degree weather. It is suppose to get up to 48 degrees here today. That's the warmest it's been in months. Maybe it will melt some of this snow. Right now, I am really digging in and cleaning house. I have... to come home to a sparkling clean home after being gone. It's my birhtday! So, maybe we'll go out for supper?? Not sure yet! Have a great weekend! I wish I could work in the yard. Hugs, Terrie

    Sounds like your weekend will be a great one. I should bet that book. I love Gollum's posts. I am anxiously awaiting my new camera so I can take pics of all the projects I've been working on. So I think this weekend will be pics and blogging. Have a good one. Hugs, Marty

    Susan,

    Congratulations on your recent awards. As always, you are so deserving!

    I am glad the south is warming up! I know you Southerners are not used to this cold and I hope you did not have any damage to your plants. I was worried about you girls!!

    Let me know how you like the Mermaid book. I have been to Gollum's blog and she is terribly funny!!

    Have a great weekend! :-)

    xoxo

    Today, I am going to a hair appointment and to a funeral of a friend's husband. Tomorrow, I'm going to a wedding shower and a fundraiser. It's a busy time right now. Hope you have a lovely weekend, Susan. :-)

    XO,

    Enjoy your weekend.

    It will rocket up as warm as 29-degrees here in frozen New Jersey today. I wish I could venture into the garden, or even outside!

    Tonight I have an anniversary reception at my parents' assisted living residence. Saturday -- a Judy Collins concert, and my daughter Anne is singing backup! What fun!

    Enjoy your book and your garden! -- Cass

    59 degrees tomorrow and 56 on Sunday. I think I'll clean up my sun room if I feel up to it. Repot my violets that someone gave me. Post photos of all the goodies I found at Tuesday Morning. Oh and don't forget the laundry.

    Weekend ♥hugs♥ to you also!
    Weekends are always busy which is a good thing:-) Mostly cleaning house and going to dinner. We are in charge of a party tomorrow night for 35 young single adults ages 18-30 from our church. They are a fun group to play with.
    I would love to curl up and read a great book. I will have to go check out the review on Mermaids in the Basement! My husband will gone out of town to WARM Houston next week and I usually read a lot when he is gone. ( My sisters family lives with us though so I won't be alone;-)!

    Enjoy your weekend!

    I want that book too! I drove tonight, first time in 3 years! Doc says 10 min at a time. I got to meet my doc's wife's friend that owns the country store here. She is a nurse too. I want to go to the little town and go to thrift shops. I had three grands all week and I am very tired. Thanks for the sweet comment. I did not think I was going to get through that post. So no enough talking for me. Thanks for caring.

    Hi Susan
    I hope you have really nice weather so you can work out in the yard. Can't wait for that....
    Marc is back from working in Jacksonville so we'll have a nice quiet weekend...we'll probably cook up a little something together tomorrow night and rent a video I'm sure.
    It'll be nice to just catch up.
    Have a nice one.
    Judi
