Love List March

Spring is coming!  With a 70+ degree forecast this weekend and these beauties on a recent walk with the dog, I'm so glad the cold and rainy days of winter are fewer and far between.

The Dovekeepers- I'm currently listening to this book on audio while walking the dog and commuting in the car.  I first tried reading just before I left for Kenya and but had to return. I'm glad I gave it another chance as listening on audiobook has helped with the extensive Hebrew terms and language which on the first attempt was difficult.  

McDonalds Shamrock Shake- Yes. I am actually putting this on my love list.  A few weeks ago I was picking up  happy meals for the boys and while waiting in line started thinking, "just who orders this unnatural green beverage?"

What came over me to answer, "make it a small," when the attendant asked if I wanted to try was a total moment of weakness."  Honestly she had me at the words, "limited time flavor, mint."  I cannot tell you how many times I have thought about driving through on the way home just to pick up another.  So far I've squashed the desire, but with St Patricks day this weekend, I made have to just get one more before gone.

DST- This is a love/hate relationship.  I hate having to get up again at o'dark thirty, drive to work, basically teach a chunk of 1st period in the dark.  I love the extra hour of playtime for the boys at the end of the day.  Last night the boys were playing fort with a gaggle of boys until I had to force Ben to come in for dinner.

Speaking of dinner, while to most anyone else this is just a plate of half eaten pancakes.  To me the is the proof the Ben's new medicine has been to date a good fit.  This was the most food consumed in a single sitting in months.

Love you March, good things are on the horizon starting with this weekend.
