Beautiful Saturday Blessings to Remember! May 10, 2014 Gratiana Lovelace (Post #562)

Lovely and beautiful Saturday thus far of:

1) slept in til 6:45am (normally, I’m up at 5:30am, Ha!); we have this soothing botanical green matelasse coverlet (pictured right from Bed, Bath, and Beyond) with eggplant purple bed sheets (for zip); 98 on my blood sugar (snap!), showered, then picked up glazed donuts and coffee on the way to …

2) 9 holes of golf with my hubby at the par 3 course–I hit the ball straight, my best drive was 125 yards, need to work on my putting; great start to the golf season!

3) however, my face is a bit sun burnt (despite using sunscreen), so I need to pick up a higher SPF sunblock, and a visor/hat; not willing to spend $16 on a sun visor (highway robbery, Ha!) at the sporting goods store on the way home, but I bought more tall golf tees and a new golfing glove;

4) Second shower after golfing–long hair all fluffy and wavy despite second round of conditioner today (no tangles, though, snap!); our Beagle doggie Heidi (left) likes my hair.  Maybe she thinks I’m an Afghan hound (middle)? Ha!; Our mutt hound Max’s portrait is more elusive (right);
     

5) pondering lunch options (reading/writing while noshing), writing at some point, chatting with my online friends throughout the day; then buying and planting more deck railing flower boxes before buying takeout Chinese for dinner, etc.; here are the backyard deck flora that we have so far (including our nice black cherry tree in the background):
  

There will be chores interspersed throughout the day, of course–hubby mowed the grass (kisses!), laundry, dishes, etc.   But it is a beautiful sunlit cool and breezy day. And I just wanted to be sure to remember it–and to count my blessings.
