Our weekend was gorgeous with warm temperatures and sunshine. I woke up Sunday morning for the first time in days without my throat feeling like knives stabbing the back of it. Because I still wasn't really up to par, we had a low-key dinner. Our kids were here and helped BG get the fruit trees planted Saturday and also put together 2 raised beds for the strawberry plants. It was a nice day for me to just sit at the patio table and admire the red bud trees which are in full bloom right now.
I also watched a pair of bluebirds flying to and from the nesting box. I always have my camera handy, but the birds were too far away to get a really good shot. We've been lucky to have several bluebirds in our backyard in the nearly 27 years we've lived here. They always seem to know when I have a camera in hand and won't come close enough for clear picture. Some day maybe I'll get lucky!
So that was my weekend, now let's have some fun!
I have come up with a dozen questions for this Monday in order for some of us to get to know each other better. Just copy and paste the questions and add your answer in your comment, or just list your answers in order of the questions! These are really easy, but if there's something you don't want to answer, just skip it. Okay? I'll give my answers first. :) Here we go:
