I woke up way too early this morning. Just before 6 a.m. I am NOT an early riser. But after 2 days of beautiful rain with dark skies, the sun is shining and the sky is blue. That was the first trigger for my early awakening. The second was the growling in my belly. Not a lot of appetite the last few days but this morning, my body was hungry! Dh was still sleeping, so off to the kitchen I trekked. As awake as I was, I didn't have the energy to cook a breakfast and I didn't feel like cereal, so I filled up my vintage bowl with white cheddar popcorn, grabbed a couple of ripe strawberries and a cup of chocolate milk. So yummy and filled me up. And dh is still sleeping, so I successfully had brekky in bed without waking him up! He works so very hard and rest is good.
Look at that blue sky! The rain we had was so welcome. It started a bit on Wednesday, then continued with downpours and thunder on Thursday. By yesterday, the sky was dark, the air was chilled and the moods were shifting. We both had work yesterday (dh at home and me in my little office) but we stopped to have a lovely lunch and that cheered us up. Late in the afternoon, snow started to fall. Crazy weather, but true! Today and tomorrow should be warm and sunny. I'm off to teach my kids grief group today with my crew and dh is going to be at a community event all day promoting our new music festival. Tonight will probably just be a quiet night to relax. Tomorrow will be landscaping in the morning and then we want to go in to the Big City and revamp our antique mall booth. We did some treasure hunting yesterday and found a bunch of great items to sell. We'll settle down to watch the 2nd season of "Big Little Lies" and plan out our week before heading to bed. A nice weekend all around and hopefully the weather will continue to be nice and warm. More rain in our forecast for next week, which is a perfect weather pattern. A day or two of rain, days of sun, then a day or two of rain again. Just enough to keep everything green and growing. Perfect!
What are your grand plans for the weekend?
If you garden, how is your garden growing?

Your weekend sounds wonderful. So looking forward to Big Little Lies.
I will have to check out Big Little Lies. You sound busy and happy. I plan to knit, read, exercise, blog, and do some cleaning. The usual...
Thank you Meredith. It was super busy but really good .... except for the thunder storms today! I'm truly looking forward to BLL too! X Chy
Stephanie, it's quite a neat series. I'm so excited for the 2nd season tonight! Hope you have a great weekend and took time to relax too! X Chy
You had snow in June? Strange. Well, maybe not so strange for your area.
I like your unusual breakfast. Especially the strawberries. Have a great week.
We did Granny! But it was mixed with rain and didn't stay long. Thankfully, it was just for a short time and now we've had lots of good moisture to get our gardens going and make the smoke disappear. X Chy
