Well, I've been a lazy blogger lately if you haven't noticed. Last week I got walloped with the worst cold I've had in a very long time, and allergies on top of that. Yikes. It was a real scene around here. But I am thankfully feeling much better now, and we are headed up north in a few hours to spend the weekend at our friend's lake house. Just the three of us-- woohoo!
Here are a few highlights from the past few days:
The salamanders are out and about. Right on time as usual. Ivo loves these little guys.
We had hail on Saturday.
My work table is so clean I had to take a picture. What a nice feeling to not be so messy all the time.
And last but not least, a funny kid quote. A few mornings ago I asked Ivo if he was all ready to go for our outing and he replied, "Yup, except I just need to spread my hair."
Have a fun weekend everyone!
Oh I am so glad you're back. Your blog is the HIGHLIGHT of my workday! I've felt so lost without you. I'm glad you're feeling better and hope you have a wonderful, restful weekend up north! Hugs to you all!

Sorry to hear that you felt so badly-I had the very same thing(bad cold w/allergies attached!)a couple of weeks ago!
I am glad that you're better and hope you have a great time at the lake!

Wow.....I am sorry you had a bad cold and I wasn't there to make you chicken soup!!!
Your work space looks like something out of Real Simple magazine--you have been very busy, I can tell!
Ivo must get his hair styling "techniques" from his Nana--my hair usually needs a great deal of spreading.
Have a wonderful trip to the Lake--hope the weather cooperates.
Love, Hugs, and Squiggly Salamander Kisses for my Ivo~

Ha ha ha! My hair is usually in need of "spreading". Come to think of it, most heads around here are.
Glad you are feeling better...Xxx

Feel better!
Amazing hail, wonderful hair spreading, nice work space and a friendly reminder that salamanders are sometmes quite poisonous.

Glad you are feeling better! You've inspired me to get on the ball with my workspace!!
I love salamanders!!! We had such a great time finding them at the stream when I was a kid!

Your clean is so much cleaner than my clean! I "cleaned my workspace yesterday but there are still threads everywhere and piles of fabric. I've been a very bad blogger too, so seeing that you have as well makes me feel better. But I have updated!

Oh, can you please come and clean my workspace. I feel guilty looking at your picture while I am typing here surrounded by mess!!!
