Weekly Roundup...

What I Liked:

...starting a cake decorating class at Hobby Lobby!

...discovering an amazing state park right down the road from our house...complete with beaches, playgrounds, hiking trails, horse riding, boat rentals, basket-ball courts, volley-ball courts, tennis courts, and even a restaurant!

...going swimming at one of the aforesaid park's beaches...first swim of the year!!!

...finally seeing "The Scarlet and the Black".  I highly recommend this movie!

...finally getting our four-wheeler back from the mechanic.  I haven't even been able to drive it yet because Dad and the boys have been on it all week!

...going into the library and walking out with a bag full of books...I love that feeling!

...ordering and promptly receiving a new jewelry making kit.

What I Didn't:

...slow internet...it reeeaaalllly gets on my nerves...

...wasps that buzz around my head every morning while I'm sitting on the porch trying to read my Bible.

...our cow Ellie watching for me to leave my shoes unguarded so she can lick them.

...Silica powder...ughhh...

What Made Me Laugh:

...the poor AT'T salesman trying to help us...you know he's given up when he starts telling you that you really don't need to buy a phone today...some other day might work better.

...calling my friend four times in a row because each time her little brother said she was in the shower...the fifth time she answered and said that she really had been out the last time I called: her brother just wanted to see if I would keep calling back.

...the Beatrix Potter Tales...so funny.

...my brother's almond flour pancakes...they turned back into almond flour when he started cooking them.

What I Accomplished:

...learning to parallel park!!!

...making Paleo Club Sandwiches...the best thing I have eaten since going Paleo.

...making two new sets of jewelry out of my new jewelry making kit.

...Paleo Peach Cobbler...even without ice cream it was amazing.
