The Friday Five Good Things


 Five good things that happened this week.

1. The Young One's friend from Ohio is coming for a visit. Nothing like company coming to give the impetus to clean the house. 

2. We signed up for HBO Plus. So many favorite shows and movies. Doctor Who, Lord of the Rings, and we get to finish Pennyworth, a show we started on a freebie, but didn't finish

3. I didn't have to get up early to take the trash out because of the holiday

4. Texted the Eldest to see if she was working this weekend. If she was off, I was going to ask if we could Skype on Sunday, her birthday.  She texted back she was going to surprise us. She's coming back home this weekend. We'll be able to celebrate her birthday in person!

5.  Spent an enjoyable day at New England Botanic Garden at Tower Hill with Nan and her sister, Nish

How was your week?

That is the best surprise that your daughter will be coming home for her birthday. You must be thrilled. And how was Tower Hill? I might have mentioned how I have been wanting to stop on the way home from my mom visit, but so far the weather hasn't cooperated. Maybe next week when I go it will. Sounds like you had a super week CJ. Enjoy your visit with your daughter. hugs-Erika

Such good news. You are going to be overrun with company this week. Glad you enjoyed your time at the Botanical Garden.

Sounds like you had a great week. Your hubby is a keeper

They have made a lot of improvements to Tower Hill. Paths turned into boardwalks or paved with cork. There's also a new garden

CJ Kennedy said...

Aw, that's sweet

How nice to see her on her birthday :) Most of what I watch on HBO is movies, and my watchlist is looong! lol

What a great week with the surprise visit from your daughter for the weekend.

There is so much good stuff on HBO. So happy we got it, but it makes it so hard to get stuff done.

I'm so excited.
