down day

no worries! i'm happy!  this has been my only day in the past week to just stay home and i'm finding it hard to just sit down!!!!

i went on a trip down to mass. to go to IKEA with a friend. we had an awesome time and came back with her entire car filled with my stuff.  she promised next time she would fill it with her stuff too!
this was a long awaited spending spree that jeff agreed i should go on.  i ticked off tons of items from my wish list.  it was all about me (for a change)

.....however,


i did buy these cute little blue chairs to go with a little white table i got from ikea a few years ago--perfect for the boys

its a warm, muggy day today. probably the last one we will have this season. fall is upon us. its been a pretty wet summer and i haven't ventured up to my chair in the woods. i did today but the mosquitos are still pretty bad. so i came back down to the yard and let the dragonflies protect me from the bugs.  i even had my bug zapper, but there were just too many of them buggers!

 i haven't done my "ings" in a while, so here you go
 
listening:  leaves rustling, crickets chirping, logging trucks rumbling
eating:  nothing
drinking: water
wearing:  blue sweats, white & blue tee with butterlies & sneaks
feeling:  okay. not too anxious or worried.  restless
weather:  nice early fall day, slight breeze, blue sky, warm and humid
wanting:  to shower, i feel buggy and sweaty from my walk
needing:  to focus more on most important tasks
thinking:  about what to make for dinner, i haven't been shopping too much lately for food
seeing:  the woods beginning to yellow, maples reddening, sheets flapping on the line; pink & red, my home sweet home
enjoying:  being home today

  2. So glad you enjoyed your trip to IKEA. And that you shopped for you. Helps to nourish ourselves once in awhile. Love your 'ing' list. It is cooler here....but still will warm up some this week.
