HAPPY FRIDAY!

Friday just has to be the best day of the working week. 2 wonderful days off just over an hour away! Jolie also recognizes Friday's and says "No school tomorrow???" and then smiles wickedly! Jolie's new daycare is now up above my head, so I can literally hear her and the other kids running around right now... and that also puts a smile on my face. Having her in the daycare here is a bonus! Once we are buckled in my car, it's a short 15 minute drive home... and then bring on the weekend!!! (can you tell I just LOVE weekends!)

The past couple of days we have had unseasonably mild weather. It has been in the mid 50's - crazy for January in New England! But I'll take it. I power walked twice this week outdoors, without a coat - how crazy is that! Today I passed the flower garden by my office, no flowers blooming. Sad empty garden. And I realized just how dreary it gets here in the winters, when the flowers aren't out and about...
I miss the flowers. I miss their color. I miss the smiles they bring me. I miss Jolie wanting to run over and smell them because they just look so pretty. I can't wait till the warm weather is here for good, and not just tease us for a day and let us go out and play in its glorious splendor. Not that I mind the frigid cold snowy icy days... it's just the sunny mild days, well, they somehow make me happier!

Have a wonderful & happy weekend all!!!
