FRIDAY. WENT ON A DATE WITH MY HUSBAND. Twas a rainy day with cooler temps. If I have to chose between a summer day with temps in the 90s verses a cooler day with cloudy skies, I'll choose the cooler day.
Nine hours later we returned HOME. Now that was a DATE.
The day started where he suggested that we have breakfast at FIRST WATCH. Okay.
Decided to order one of their healthy beverages, the "Morning Meditation" refers to a fresh juice blend made with orange juice, lemon juice, turmeric, organic ginger, agave nectar, and beet. Added vitamin. It had a little bite to it until I got use to it.
I ordered a SALAD at 10:30 in the morning. hummm. Was this too early for a SALAD? nope. SUPER FOOD KALE SALAD. Vitamin-rich kale and organic mixed greens with house made maple-roasted carrots, warm all-natural chicken breast, dried cranberries, slivered almonds and shredded Parmesan tossed in our refreshing maple-lemon vinaigrette. Asked for additional dressing as it needed it.
Twas good. Ate everything in my bowl. Left with a very full stomach. Thank you, Lord.
Off we went to the HOME GOODS STORE across the street where I found a glass jar with metal lid for a decent price. This particular style of jar used to be sold at DOLLAR GENERAL and when coming across it at other locations, the jar is priced way higher than it use to be. I bought the jar they had at a low discounted price. I like to use these jars for storing popcorn, spices, dried items.
I picked up a white melamine bowl for serving salad. Checked out.
🧋STARBUCKS ICED TEA time. For some reason it was really refreshing to sip on.
👚Drove over to GOD'S STOREHOUSE. Left with only a few items. Good girl.
🛠LOEWS Lumber Yard. Really nice store. Needing caulking and some other building supplies. I've been on the look out for wide curtain rods as of late as I could not find any wide rods. Checked the computer and LOEWS had some. Their selection of curtain rods is excellent. One of the best I've seen. Bought two of them for my KITCHEN WINDOWS. I now have the rods plus black and white Buffalo Checked fabric to create window treatments.
When we were finished at LOEWS, we went for our weekly stash of veggies and fruit from Dillons in North Topeka. We both like this particular grocery store.
Slow shopping before heading to St. Marys for supper at SUGAR CREEK.
🥗A Rachel Salad with the toasted rye toast to the side. Water to drink.
🏡 HOME WE WENT and I was ready to call it a day. Very nice DATE.
Fell asleep as I read a new magazine. Snoozed and woke thinking it was a new day. Falling back asleep won't be easy, so I'll blogged, count my blessings and say some prayers.
The week-end is here. Plans are always present. I can restock the linen closet now that it's been painted and the crown molding hung. Looking good. The cabinet door panels come next. Some of the doors are still being waited on. So I wait.
It will be SWEET having the towels and toiletries back in the Bathroom. I will refold the towels so they all fit nice and neat into the cabinet. Martha Stewart would be so proud of me. Maybe Marie Condo would approve as these towels give me a spark.
This week-end I'll fill the new linen cabinet with items. It shouldn't take me very long to do this. Stay focused.
Getting organized seems to be on my back burner. AND SHOULD BE.
