Beautiful Weekend

This winter is already making me a happier person. Hopefully it will help turn around my negative feelings regarding the weather here. Last year it was very wet, rainy and cloudy. This year we have less rain and it is actually reaching into the 70's. I tell Nathan, I would truly be a happy camper if it stayed in the 70's every day.

About a week ago we had 70 degree weather for the entire week. This weekend we only had a day or two of 70 degree weather. I have been able to sit outside and work on my summer tan :)

Yesterday I spent the afternoon doing some yard work. I swept, transplanted my first potted plant, pruned the rose bush in hopes to have new buds this year, pulled a few weeds and watered the lawns. Nathan mowed the lawns and sprayed the weeds for me.

Today I was able to take Angel out for a walk, played fetch with the ball at the park and then finished our walk. We were gone over an hour. That had me thrilled. It is like a battle to get her out to even go for a walk every day. The one day a week I can get her out is on Saturday when she and I join the NPS Running Club for their Saturday morning run. Angel and I just walk though. My guess is she missed that walk yesterday and so she didn't put up too much of a fuss in going out today. FYI the running club didn't meet yesterday because they are running in the San Francisco Half Marathon today.

Too bad we are going to drop down into the 60's for the week :( I guess it could be worse though it could be snowing, YUCK!! I am not looking forward to that come the end of the year when we move back to the East Coast. (That is not set in writing yet. Once we have orders I am sure I will post to let everyone know.)
