Day Off

 Monday was our day off this week to do what ever we wanted to do.    Far Guy woodcarved.  We took Ranger Blue to recycle and then washed Blue up after the mud holes we were in last weekend. 

I did some more organizing on my Christmas Card project and began some of the water coloring.  I decided what the inside of the card should say...yeah for progress.

I did some laundry and put a bunch of my stuff away...we cooked supper together...Philly's, sweet potatoes and fruit. 


The Obedient Plant is nearly done blooming in the wild gardens.  Physostegia virginiana.

I always enjoy a day off here and there. And you even made some "progress" on your Christmas Card project. Good for you.

A day off! My day off is usually Tuesday, the one day I don't have to taxi anyone to appointments!

I may just not do anything today.

I'm not exactly sure what my next indoor project may be.

Your days off are usually busier than my regular days! :-)

You made a lot of progress!! I found wording I liked for my Christmas card, but will only use it IF I find/take a photo that goes well with it. Not intentional, just worked out that way this year. Words are easier to change up. I've changed my mind right before making them, more than once. I enjoy the hand card making process, when it comes together!

Looking forward to seeing the wood ornament you'z guy'z crafted this year.

Your Obedient plants are a pretty color. I grew a white version at my old place. It didn't do much for me and didn't get transplanted at our new place.

Your obedient plant is lovely. Mine is just starting to show signs of fading. I definitely need to find it in other colours. I love it.

Very busy for a day off! But when you get to do whatever you want, then I guess it really does count as a day off. LOL I'm back to work this week now that I'm mostly healed up. And will have lots of extra hours through the end of the month on some new projects. I'm telling myself it's Christmas shopping money. Or fabric shopping money.

Even a day off is productive. :) I like those flowers.

I had a day off yesterday, too.I enjoyed doing some sewing and reading. I need to do both more often.

It seems we haven't had a day off in a long, long time and it was just our vacation a month ago! You sure got a lot done for being "off".
Blessings,

Sounds like a very pleasant 'day off' - and one that was still productive as well :)

I love the Obedient plant. I don’t think I see it in the south.

Tuesday is usually my day to go to the thrift store and have a good browse around but this week I'm recuperating and have to stay home. It's cooler now, which is great.

Your day off was a busy one for both of you. Getting things done feels good and one just works around the other things.

OK....what are Phillys? PHilly cheesesteak sandwiches??? I love sweet potatoes too and fruit! Wish I lived closer! You're continuing to make progress on your Christmas cards....good for you. I can't believe how fast this year has gone. Yikes.
