Nice End to a Hectic Week!

Hur-rah!  I began a new job Monday after being unemployed for a few months.  With the time change and all the walking at the new job (learning my way around plus the parking lot was a short distance from the building), by Friday, I was exhausted.  I wasn't used to getting up and out of the house in the mornings, and missed the opportunity to take an afternoon nap.  *laugh*  Here is a picture from when I exit the building to the stairs I have to climb to get to where I park my car. 

Good news is that I dropped 1.8 lbs from Monday morning. *laugh* Forced exercise... gotta love it!

Thursday night I tidied up the house in preparation for my grand daughter's arrival (and her parents of course).  She is constantly on the go and loves to run. Being almost two (turns two in April), she is inquisitive and wants to check everything out. So the boxes in the living room and kitchenette area had to go to the basement.

Friday evening it was nice to come home and find them here.  We celebrated her birthday as she'll be in New England celebrating with her cousins next month and *sniff sniff* grandma and grandpa won't be able to get the time off to join them.  So her other grandparents will have the fun.
Not much quilting has been done this week or this weekend although I'm hoping to get upstairs before the night is over. 

*sigh*  Unfortunately the visit ended too soon.  I'm looking forward to the time when we will be able to have her for week long sleepovers.  That will be fun!  We did spend time visiting with her parents as we haven't seen them in a while either. 

Happy St. Patrick's Day to all the Irish and non-Irish among us!
