It’s coffee talk time.
If we were really meeting for coffee I’d pop into my local coffee shop and order an iced mocha, because it is hot up in here.
It’s a veritable heat wave here in Hawkeye country. The weather man said it was 60 degrees…oh no that was NOT a typo…60 degrees! Can you believe it? It is January right? I even ventured outside and took a little jog over my lunch hour sans coat. Unbelievable. Also unbelievable, the fact that in two days it’s supposed to snow. CRAZY!!! You gotta loveIowa. If you don’t like the weather, just wait a day. So how’s the weather in your part of the country? Heat wave or snow?
Isn’t funny how coffee talk and weather always coincide. It’s like peanut butter and chocolate or apple pie and ice cream or me and Target or …
On Saturday, I spent the day with my mom and stepdad in the QC attending a memorial service for my step-uncle who passed away after battling cancer for over 10 years. It was a nice tribute and it was good to see family that I haven’t seen since my wedding. Ironic isn’t it, the only time all the family coincides in one place is either a funeral or a wedding, the saddest moments and the happiest. Hmmm…food for thought.
Other than that, I made my weekly pilgrimage to Target to buy some groceries and to pick up these …
My first REAL pair of sunglasses. Unfortunately, I didn’t wear my contacts that day so I had to get REALLY close to the mirror to see how they looked, and my only opinion was E’s so I took a chance. Not sure if the Mary Kate Olsen look is for me. I kind of feel like I’m wearing a pair of blue blockers or the glasses you get when your eyes are dilated. What do you think?
And because he didn’t want to be left out. E got a new pair too. Batman ones of course.
That’s all from me. It’s been quiet at our house. Ok. Maybe not quiet just less crazy.
One thing I DO know is that I’m off to an afternoon playdate at the playground with the boys, and we are gonna soak up this sun before it vanishes.
Have a great rest of the week, and don’t forget to head over to Amy’s where the coffee is always hot and the conversation keeps flowing.
Ciao!
