A great week and a big thank you!

Happy Sunday!

I wanted to thank those of you who have been visiting my blog this week. I've been having a great time with the Blogging from A to Z Challenge. It's such a wonderful opportunity to discover great new blogs and meet new friends. ☺

I also wanted to let you know that my daily haiku is up over at the Pulitzer Remix site. You can find it here. I know I keep saying this, but I truly am grateful to those of you who are reading and commenting on my poems. I'm honored that I was one of the eighty-five poets chosen to participate in this project, and I'm so appreciative of those who take the time to read. Thank you!

Wishing you all a fantastic Sunday! Now I'm off to read some blogs. ☺

Oh, my aching legs!

This is the first time I've had a chance to sit down since I read and commented on blogs this morning. (I'm caught up. Yay!)

Why is it that holidays are the opposite of relaxing? There's always so much to do, and somehow I always manage to leave most of it for the last minute. Today I've been to the grocery store for more Easter basket stuff (twice), washed everyone's dressy church clothes and found all the accessories (shoes, tights, ties, barrettes...), prepped tomorrow's French toast (it stays in the fridge all night and bakes for an hour in the morning), filled baskets and plastic eggs, and double-checked that I have everything I need for the Easter dinner I'm cooking tomorrow evening. And that's just the holiday stuff! Those everyday chores--dishes, laundry, cooking meals, cleaning--didn't go away, as much as I wish they had. I'm unbelievably tired and so glad to be able to sit down right now. After I post this, I'm taking my tired legs to the bathtub, and I think I'll bring along a glass of wine and a book. It's "me" time now!

Happy Easter!
