I hope everyone has a Happy Memorial Day! This weekend, I went out into the woods and disconnected.
Took some time to think. Went to a picnic. And dined at delicious restaurants. Had friend time and family time.

And took some time to think about all the amazing people who sacrifice their lives to protect my freedom.
How was your Memorial Day?








Just as it should be, Kourtney. Good for you.
My son graduated yesterday and we have family visiting, so it’s been both hectic and fun. ๐
Thanks Carrie! Aw congrat–that’s a big day! Yes, holiday weekends tend to go that way don’t they? ๐
It looks like you had a great day, Kourtney! I enjoyed the day, but it wasn’t very relaxing.
Thanks Jill. Were you hosting a picnic? That’s so much work.
No…writing. ๐
Ah yes. It’s one of those, I love doing this, but it’s so hard and ugh I have to get it done things.
Well we don’t have Memorial day here, but we did have a three day weekend for different reasons (I’m not sure any of us know what the reasons are, but we don’t let that worry us). Sounds like you had a lovely weekend!
Three day weekends are great. ๐ It was fun. I got to watch some badly good horror movies like Zombie Beavers and Deep Blue Sea. Great fun with my friend! Emerson slept on me during the movies. Great bonding time too. ๐
Since we’re still settling into the new house, there wasn’t much time to disconnect. But there was certainly time to remember the reason for the day.
Glad you could recharge for part of it!
Yes. You’ve got to be troubleshooting everything still. Great reason for the day. Thanks. I did, but then I ran my battery down again today. Had a day out with my grandmother, prepped for school and taught for 4.5 hours straight. My brain is mush.
Glad you had some time out. The great outdoors calls me but I’m city-side for a while, so I really enjoyed the pics ๐
Thanks, me too. It’s good to get out of the house and be in the woods. My friend loved it. Happy my pics gave you a little time in the woods!
Blueberry pancakes? Ahhhhhh.
It’s good to disconnect. Keeps things in balance. And gives you mind a place to go and daydream when it’s overwhelming elsewhere!
Those were my friend’s pancakes. I had one bite and they were delicious! It is really important. Though I’ll be working all weekend to make up for it.;)
Glad you had a good day Kourtney, sustenance for mind and body ๐
very good day outdoors. My friend and I also stumbled across two people sitting by the waterfall texting. We laughed. This is where you go to text? ๐
It feels great to be out in nature and focused on not tripping on tree roots and rocks. Really clears the mind. LOL. I like to stay in and watch a movie and eat homemade popcorn on a Saturday night if I’m not working. ๐ Aw thank you! Hope you have a wonderful week ahead too!
Hugs,
Kourtney
Nice relaxing long weekend for us. No sports games or practices, so that’s a big deal for me. Happy Memorial Day to you too!
Sounds awesome. The perfect weekend then? ๐
We went on a picnic in Hyde Park with our dog who absolutely loves picnics, especially now that he’s older. He can sit outside for hours.
That sounds lovely! My dog loves to cuddle. My friend was laughing at how Emerson drapes himself across me and naps during movies. ๐
