Meridith Monday’s Vol 16

Wow- I can’t believe I’ve been keeping up with these weekly posts for 3 months now!  I think because of the easy writing format I’m more inclined to sit and write these posts out to share with you.  Plus keeping on a schedule with a deadline keeps me in check. Over the past week I:

  • Attended my first book club meeting- it was nice to get back to reading again!  Hope to continue these meetings to keep me on track.
  • Weeded half the driveway and then sprayed weed killer so we don’t have this problem again- hoping it works!!
  • Had our neighbor over for dinner.  The rest of his family is enjoying time in Italy but he stayed home so it was nice to have him over with us.
  • Picked about 19 cucumbers out of the neighbors garden- since they are away I’ve been harvesting for them:)  I’m going to try pickling, we shall see how that goes.
  • Had a lovely dinner at Satis Bistro in Jersey City with Chris, my parents and Aunt Carolyn who is in from Chicago visiting.
  • Photographed some of my favorite clients at Stone Barns– I loved seeing all the kids growing up- 2 I haven’t seen since they were newborns!  This is one of the best things about my job!
  • Had to cancel one session due to food poisoning- not fun for my clients I’m sure.  Hoping they are feeling a little bit better today:)
  • Relaxed on the porch watching a storm roll in with Chris.
  • Found a recipe for a delish cucumber and chick pea salad- we have to eat all those cucumbers somehow- ha!
