The Friday Five Good Things


 Five good things that happened this week.

1. A week ago Friday, a chance for some snow. We didn't even get a flake.

2. The First Day of Spring arrived and it felt a little like Spring. Spring here in New England is a lot like Winter. Cold and wet, just not as much snow.

3. I ordered some Easter goodies, but when they arrived the box was crushed like it had been burst open, but then taped shut. Some of the items were damaged.  I sent a complaint and the items will be replaced.

4. We saw the first robin of Spring

5. I put the finishing touches on the Eldest's Easter basket and got it ready to mail.

How was your week?

  2. This has been a nice week until today's rain. But still warm enough I don't need socks on in the house and my feet are warm. Smile. Hurrah for spring robins. Sad face for crushed boxes. But a good week for you overall I think. Happy weekend, although it sounds not quite as nice as the last one.

  3. Spring has passed us by and we've gone directly to summer....and the humidity is as high as the temps! :(Silver lining:the pool should heat up quickly!)

  5. Another overcast and rain predicted day in my world. Sounds like you had a great one, though. Sorry about the broken box, but great that it will be replaced.

    So glad you saw your first robin of the year. I saw a CARDINAL for the first time in four years on Wednesday. I was over the moon with happiness. It was definitely a male. He was playing in my bamboo. Hope your eldest gets her Easter package and all is well with it. Keep having a great week, CJ.

  6. Aside from rain, our Spring weather has been fairly warm, but very windy!

    1. Very windy, here, too. I had to bring in the Easter garden flag because I was afraid it would blow away

  7. Glad your goods will be replaced! Here... too cold and grey, America laughs about Germany´s dumbness does not help (or maybe it does, too! Hope our "Chancellor" wakes up before she ...)

    1. It's nice to have a Spring. Usually we go directly from Winter to Summer with no transition weather.
