A Day in my Life - June

Happy June! School is nearly done for the year here, the sun is shining and everything is growing.  It's a lovely time of year!
Here's how I spent the first day of the month.


Because it was Saturday, I got to sleep in and got up shortly after 8. I got ready and started a load of laundry.


Then I had my usual breakfast, 2 boiled eggs!




Bob was out working on his flower beds, so I wandered out there and we walked around the yard a bit.




Then it was time to get some things done.  On Saturday, I usually make something to put in the crock pot, so dinner is ready when we get home from church.  We usually some sort of buns or sandwiches for supper, so I get something ready for that too.
I made Caprese Chicken in the crockpot and then corned beef filling for buns for supper.


I had lunch plans with a friend so drove about 30 minutes to meet up with her.


Here's my friend Ginger.  We had a nice time catching up and had a good lunch.





It was a pretty day and I took the back roads home.  I saw this cool, old car along the way.



This cute little place sells decorative items for your home.  It's on a farm and is run by a mom and daughter.  However, it looks like they were working on it and there were very few items, so I left empty handed.





It always refreshes me to drive out in the country and see the fields and farms.


Soon I was home and finished the laundry I had started earlier.  I cleaned up the kitchen, ran the dishwasher and did a little laundry.



The weather had changed and it started raining. The little boy in the landscaping was getting a bit wet!





Soon, it was a downpour.




About 5:30 we were on the road, it was still raining.





We met friends at a local Mexican restaurant, had a great supper and a good time.

We got home a little after 8 and had a quiet rest of the night.
A good day to start the month!

    That little shop is so cute! You got so much done!! The Mexican place sure has a unique and colorful table. I would never be able to stop at just two boiled eggs.

    So glad you got to enjoy the company of good friends this weekend! We have so many eggs. I need to boil some to keep on hand for a quick snack!

    It seems you have started June perfectly! Love the photos you shared and am intrigued by that tiny store! I am again using my little egg cooker. Took a break but enjoying boiled eggs once again! Hugs!

    Sounds like a perfect Saturday to me when you can peruse the garden, wander back roads, and share meals with great friends. :)
