WHAT I'M LOVING RIGHT NOW

Since I was such a whiner the last time I blogged, I wanted to use this post to share with you some of the fun things I've been doing the past few weeks.  Where have I been?  No where.  What have I done?  Nothing extraordinary.  Just simple stuff that I'm absolutely loving!  First, there's the sewing class I started taking.  So much fun!  I've made pillow cases, and the cutest make-up bag (with a matching credit card bag!) and next week we're making a gorgeous tote bag.  Hope my mom isn't reading this, because she's getting one for Christmas, LOL!

the tote I'll attempt to make will look sort of like this, but in different colors. Wish me luck!



Another thing I'm loving right now is my son's band, Personal Favorite.  He's the drummer, and even though y'all will think I'm just saying this because I'm his mom, he really is an excellent drummer.  The other two boys in the band are also extremely talented.  They played their first gig last week at a bar in their college town.  Me, my DH, and my two BFF's were on hand to cheer them on during their hour-long set.  The place was packed!  They played great songs (everything from the Beatles to Maroon 5) and were just so good! 


 


Something else I've been doing that's so much fun is line dancing.  The DH and I lead a class in our neighborhood once a week.  We get a great turnout and everyone has a great time dancing (with the added benefit of burning lots of calories!  A win-win!).  Also enjoyable have been the tennis and pickleball matches we've played while enjoying the lovely weather.  And can I just say how much of a kick we get tooling around the neighborhood in our bright red golf cart, appropriately decorated with University of Georgia banners?!  Such a blast!

And of course, in between all the fun, I've been working on a new book.  The beginnings are always the slowest part for me, when I'm learning about the characters, feeling them out.  They're starting to fall into place—and I'm also loving that.


 What have you been up to lately?  Have you seen any signs of spring where you live, or are you still bogged down in winter weather?  What's going on with you this weekend?  Hope it's a great one for you!
