Swap Goodies

I'm pretty behind on getting this up, but I still wanted to share what I got from Karla, my partner in Nicole's Garden Swap. Karla has a lovely little blog, little joys. She sent me a super cute necklace, set of notecards, magnets, great flower photograph, and really beautiful seed packet for my favorite flower. Thanks Karla!

Full Recovery and a Meme

I am feeling much better and am back at work today. I have no idea what brought on my headache, but I am glad it is gone, after two consecutive evening remedies of 3 Advil and 1 Benadryl. That's quite a medicinal cocktail, but it seemed to do the trick. No worries, I didn't exceed anything that my doctor has not prescribed me in the past. :) Monday marked my sister & her husband's first anniversary so I called the other day to give my congratulations. We are soon approaching an anniversary of our own, but I will write more on that another time. During my sick leave I managed to finish Pride & Prejudice completely, which has improved my reading streak. I seem to have broken, at least for the time being, my previous habit of stopping every book 3/4 of the way through. And after I take a small amount of time to revisit some P&P fanfiction, I think I will move on to Sense & Sensibility. And all of this planning leads me to the meme that my garden swap partner, Colleen, recently posted.

Five Things On My To-Do List:

1. Make special cake for my special guy.
2. Sign up for Ed's Camera Workshop.
3. Plan next week's menu and choose something to make for dinner at the In-Law's this Sunday, probably another yogurt cake.
4. Get a post up on Small Time Cooks, also probably the yogurt cake, ha.
5. Laundry. Really need to do laundry.

P.S.- 6. Post pics of what I got from my garden swap partner.

Swap-o-rama

In the past couple weeks I've signed up for 3, count 'em, 3 blog swaps. I mentioned Kelly's swap already, which has boarded all passengers and set sail, so sorry if you missed the boat. Then, last week while doing a little blog-hopping I came across a Valentine's Day swap being hosted by Beth at her blog, Summers Camp. Her Love Triangle swap sounded too cute to pass up, so I signed on. And to keep the winter blues from getting me down I decided to sign up for Nicole's Garden Swap. What better way to keep a sunny disposition than to put together a happy package for someone else and maybe get a cheery something in return? I think you should join in the fun too!
