Thursday's Thoughts and Ponders- Day 2

Yesterday was extremely productive, I knocked out everything plus some from my lists. Only thing not checked off was the flower bed and that's cause the lawn guys couldn't make it til today. Today is a lot more laid back than Mon-Wed. Hubs only works half a day and then our weekend starts. 

This whole pandemic thing has brought on a whole lot of extra stress, but one thing I am super thankful for is that I have been given more time to hang out with the love of my life. On a normal weekly schedule, he works 60-70 hours in a single week and by the time he makes it home, he just wants to rest and be left alone. He is completely exhausted. With the current state of life, he is working around 45 hours a week, so that gives us from Thursday afternoon through Monday morning to be together. Yes we are working a side hustle Thursday and Friday nights (driving for UberEats) but at least it's time we are spending together. And it's fun to hang out and drive around, gives us lots of time to talk and share just about anything that comes to mind.

It's a beautiful morning out today, sun is shining, birds are chirping, squirrels running through the trees. Cowboy is napping at my feet, while Layla lounges on the porch railing. Temp is a perfect 76 degrees, though I am positive that is short lived as it's supposed to reach 98 by afternoon. But I love my Texas roots so we just grin and bear it. 

Today's list of to-do's is very short. Minor housecleaning and upkeep, making a lasagna for lunch- hubs is home for lunch. Attempting to make a big lunch on Thursdays and Fridays, gives us a good meal to eat before we go out for the evening and leaves our daughter something good for dinner. We will grab dinner through a drive thru somewhere tonight when there is a lull in orders. 

And that is today's ponderings from this small town wife- feeling very thankful for the place I'm at.
