A weather report

The weekend weather was amazing!  We have had three weekends in a row of gorgeous, sunny, warm weather.  It actually got up to 78 degrees on Saturday; a new record.  Mark played golf Saturday while the puppies and I worked in the yard.  Sunday all four of us worked in the yard.  It was nice, but I discovered that new dandelions actually grow right in front of you while you're pulling out old ones.  They are amazing.  We have some beautiful flowering trees in the back yard.  I need to find out what they are.  One of them has really pretty white flowers.

Thanks to the weather, house work has gone to the dogs (really -- I cannot believe how much dog hair is floating around at the moment).  Today was supposed to be yoga class and house cleaning day.  However, it turned into yoga class and office work day, instead.  I don't have anything on my calendar for tomorrow, so I think I'll just get up early, put on my Dolly Domestic clothes and go for it.

I've been having a good time lately, but I can't remember doing what.  Most of my days consist of running errands and cooking dinner.  We take the dogs for a run a few evenings a week.  We eat dinner and watch TV.  I go to yoga class on Tuesdays, with lunch afterwards with the other folks in the class.  I go to my Weight Watchers meeting on Thursdays and have a good time talking with the other members.  It's feeling rather 'Spring-y' and I'm enjoying it, as is everyone else in the area.  I'm looking forward to about a month from now when things have slowed down a bit and Mark and I can start exploring our new surroundings -- a trip to Nisqually Wildlife Refuge, over to the beach for some waves and sand, Mima Mounds to see the wildflowers, that sort of stuff.

And that's it for now.
