Five Things on Friday

1. Today is my older son’s 54th birthday and I am thinking about lots of memories involving him at different ages (Sherri, if you are reading this you are in lots of those early memories too πŸ™‚). He is a kind, deep thinking, persevering, loyal and all around great guy who shows his care for others through action and married a wonderful woman who truly is a great partner for him. πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‚❤️🎊

2. As I walked into the garage early this morning to start a load of laundry I thought how wonderful it is to have the ease of doing laundry at home whenever I want. As a young mother I had to haul it all to the laundromat. 

3. Had a good chat with a similar age neighbor yesterday. We quickly jumped into meaningful conversations after meeting the week we moved here. I really appreciate that kind of connection.

4. I volunteered to babysit for a few hours today so my younger son could make a healthcare appointment. I’m really glad Hubby can substitute for me since I still have cold symptoms including a sore throat. I’m equally glad I am now at the stage of feeling a bit better each day.

5. I have a few easy tasks planned for today that I truly want to do and that will enable me to continue to make progress despite still being sick.

  2. LOL You finally got me to comment! I remember those days too. It is hard to believe he is 54. I am not surprised at your description - even as a child you could see the person he would grow up to be. I wish him a Happy Birthday.

  3. Glad you're feeling better. So many people around here have colds/coughs that have been lingering.

    Right there with you on being thankful for convenient laundering! We bought a washer very early in marriage after I fell down laundromat steps when I was pregnant. I'd bring the wet clothes home and hang them on the clothes line. :) Last time I was in a laundry mat (when I needed a large capacity machine) I had sticker shock at the prices.
