IT’S MONDAY !!
Here we are with a new week ahead and a new month. Wow, I think May did just fly by. It’s June and we’ll hopefully be seeing lots more sunshine and warmer weather.
This past weekend was a nice one with only one little shower on Friday evening. It was cool but not bad at all. I didn’t have to turn the heater on in the camper. It was just comfortable so I’m a happy camper.
DSIL and DD got to go fishing and the only catch that was made was a whopper. DSIL got a 20 inch bass and DD took pictures so we have proof too.
I wasn’t fishing I was napping in my chair on the deck of my camper. I parked the chair in the sun and just relaxed.
It’s back to work today and I’m liking it because it is only a 4 day work week. I’m going to have a vacation day on Friday so that means I’ll head for the camper on Thursday evening after work.
The only thing beside work on my calendar this week is a hair cut on Tuesday evening. I’m going for a short cut in hopes of warm weather!
Have a great day all ! Another wonderful one on the Way !
