Friday Five

Oh what a sunshiney day....
                  Joining with Willy Nilly Friday and Five on Friday.

1.Speaking of sunshine.... there's nothing like sitting outside with the sunshine beaming down on you, after a long winter. I'm loving it.

2. Yesterday the staff at The Commons, where I live, treated us to a baked potato social. My, my, what good potatoes and there were tons of great toppings. We all ate until we popped. 



3. With my hairdresser moved away, I have been trying to find someone I like. First this one will do one thing that I like but something I don't. Then the second will do the same thing. Went to a new one yesterday... same old, same old. I like the top but I don't like the neckline. I'll keep trying to find someone who listens to me. 

4. I've been so busy I haven't had time to work with my pastels. However, I don't think I have posted the last one I did... so here it is.

5. This coming Sunday is Palm Sunday. No matter how you worship, or where... it's an important day in the religious world. Hope to see you in church.

I am sending well wishes to all my blogging friends.
Love you

  5. I have never been to a "Baked Potato Social" - now i suspect I'm missing something fun . .

    I was so annoyed at a hairstylist - i have let my hair grow even since . . .

  6. Hi Mom! Great Five! Love your stained glass from St. Paul's, and the wonderful pastel of the bird! What fun having that baked potato social! Glad the sun is shining. We are in the mid-80's here again...50s at night. I am looking forward so much to the move, but will miss certain things here. I wonder if I will ever get back?

  7. Enjoyable Friday Five. We have sunshine here today. Wonderful isn’t it? I love baked potatoes, any which way. I have a problem with finding a hairdresser and a dentist I feel comfortable with, still looking as they both left roundabout the same time. Loved the little bird you did with your pastels. That is a lovely picture inside a very pretty church. Have a great day :)

  8. What a beautiful cute pastel! And a great church...
    I cut my hair by muself (very short), with hairdressers it's often an especially thing, sigh!
    Have a blessed Easter week

  10. Sounds like you've had a good week. My mother suffers the same dilemma with finding a new hairdresser too. So frustrating

  11. I quit going to hairdresser because none of them listened, ever! Love your little bird.

  12. What a pretty little painting! Is it paint or chalk? Either one, it's lovely. A good hairdresser is hard to find, so I feel your pain there! I've had my share of flops, but I found a decent one a few years ago and she's close to me and cheap, so win/win! Hope you have a lovely weekend and Palm Sunday.

  13. A baked potato buffet is a great idea. Glad to know about it. And that little bird is about the most precious thing I've seen in ages. I'm so envious of artists. Please show more of your work.
