A Day in my Life - March

Here we are in March!  Those of you that know me, know that I'm thrilled to be this far into the year, with Spring just around the corner and winter soon behind us.
Here's my monthly report on how I spent the first day of the month.

This is shortly after 7, on the corner just down from my house.  The sun is rising and it looks beautiful!  It was 30 degrees when I left.

This is about 7:20. You can't really see it, but far ahead a train is just going through, leaving cars on the road I'm on, way backed up.  I'm not a very patient driver and am never happy when this happens to me in the morning.  It took about 15 minutes to get through here.

I got to work about 7:50 and was the first one to arrive. I got the doors unlocked and my computer started. I have to be ready to start answering phones at 8.
I always enjoy flipping my calendars to a new month.  This is a Sandra Boynton Calendar that has a holiday for every month, most are quite silly and make us laugh at work.

Look at this!  Outside the window at work, this tree is budding.  It's very early for that here in Michigan.

Here's some of the nurses I work with.  We don't have patients in the office on Friday so we don't have to wear uniforms.  I have the best co-workers!  We have some crazy days sometimes, but still have fun.
We had a nice day and I was able to leave on time at 4:30.

It was getting a little cloudy when I left but was up to 46 degrees.
I had to make a few stops on my way home; a few things at the store, a drive through the bank and stopped to get gas.

I also picked up pizza and made it home about 5:30.  Here's my half of the pizza with pineapple on it.  Bob thinks that's awful.  His had sausage and bacon.

I knew that Saturday was going to be a busy day for me, so I did a few things after supper. First some laundry.  Have you ever tried this Downy Light?  It makes your clothes smell so nice but isn't strong or overpowering.

I mixed up some Creamy Chicken Taco Soup, so on Saturday, all I had to do was get the crock out of the frig and start it up.

Then I started the dishwasher, cleaned up the kitchen and cleaned the sink.  It always makes me feel good to have a clean kitchen.

By 7:30 I was all done and lit a candle, ready to relax for the night.
It was a good day, and I'm thankful for God's blessings on it!

Afternoon with Cassie

 Last week I watched Cassie while Andrew and Heather went to her first high risk OB appointment. They knew this would be a long one, at least 2 hours because they would be doing a detailed ultrasound and check, so having Cassie with me worked well.

Here we are at their house, where we played, did some puzzles and read books.

I needed to pick up a few things so we went to the store.

She knows this place has fish, so she asked right away to go see the fish.

She loved seeing them all.

On the way out, she had to ride Sandy, the penny horse.

Then we went to Chik-fil-A for supper. Cassie loves their "noodles".

We had just gotten home when Andrew and Heather came home.  They had good reports from the doctor.  She is now at 12 weeks, the baby was very active and everything looked good.  She will be going to this specialist monthly along with seeing her regular OB/gyn doctor.

We're so thankful for this baby and the good report!
