It’s been a busy day, and I am just now getting a chance to sit down at the computer long enough to write a post! Here are my five favorites from this week:
1. An excellent caregiver. The aide who cares for my mother-in-law Monday through Friday during the day goes above and beyond the call of duty. We’re blessed.
2. A new fall TV season. Call me shallow if you want. 🙂 It’s good to see the old favorites come back, cliffhangers resolved, etc. I don’t know if we will watch any of the new series – I have a couple on the Tivo but one only has so much time for TV.
3. Getting some small tasks done – replacing a torn shower curtain, cleaning off the laundry room shelf, even some mending.
4. Lovely weather.
5. Hershey’s kisses. I’ve been trying to cut back on sweets by not buying the kinds I like. Having a couple of Hershey’s kisses with coffee has been nice to satisfy that chocolate craving at a minimum of calories.
Happy first fall Friday! You can check out others’ faves or link up your own here today.
Stray Thoughts 
Caregivers who care are simply angels. I know what you mean.
I love Hershey’s kisses…just enough chocolate (if I stop eating them…)
Have a great week ahead – enjoy fall!
Yay for a Hershey’s kiss with coffee…perfect! Yum……and praise The Lord you have a good caretaker for your mom. I love autumn and getting little tasks done on my never ending to do list!!!!
I’ve been praying about your family care needs — it’s good to know God has provided just the right person. These are good gifts of the week.
Excellent caregivers are worth EVERY PENNY they earn. You are blessed to have such a good one for your mother in law.
Ahem…I am shallow then too 🙂 We eagerly awaited the new season of NCIS this week!
I hope you’ve had a good weekend.
That’s one of the ones I was anticipating, too! 🙂
Hooray for a good caregiver!
What a relief and a blessing to have a great caregiver. I replace the torn shower curtain liner this weekend too. Funny how those little things all tend to pile up and take over a day if we don’t stay on top of them. There are some shows I love to see back too and I love being able to record them and watch at my convenience
