Friday File 56

This week we’ve had some really gorgeous days, and my children have had so much fun playing outside. I’ve done some de-cluttering and scrapbooking, some sewing and card making. It has been a productive week. We’ve hung our laundry outside a couple of days and see our rhubarb starting to poke up! Yeah! I’ve moved some furniture around – always fun and fresh feeling. My diet has been going well, and I’ve started to see my weight dropping again.
