January 17, 2025. Friday. We have had a quiet week for the most part. It is almost midwinter, so here in this part of the world, we are experiencing snow and cold. Maybe that's what slows us down and makes life more quiet. As I reflect back on this week, I know I am very blessed. Here are Five Faves that I chose to share. The link is to Susanne's blog-- our faithful host.
1. My sister-in-law and I are close. We were BFFs in high school. We're always texting each other and sharing photos. One day this week, I read a text that said, "I found Tracy!" Hmmm, I didn't know Tracy was lost. Which Tracy? OH! THAT Tracy! Yay! She was a blogger who lives in Norway and now she has a you tube channel. I am glad my sister-in-law found her and we were able to reconnect.
2. We had to make a drive to the airport to drop Younger Daughter off for a trip. Warrior Boy asked if he could ride along. Of course. That meant we had extra time with him. Not all that exciting-- a stop at Trader Joe's for groceries. A wait for me at a dr appt (all's well). But we enjoy any time we can have with our grandkids.
3. Snow and cold means cuddling up with blankets, afghans, coffee and tea. I am thankful I have a warm home!
4. My cousin still lives in the area where our dads were born and raised. He was at the local library and found old yearbooks and sent me (among many others) pictures of my dad.
5. Older Daughter was able to take some hours off from work this week and joined us for our weekly coffee time with T and S. We drove to a new to her (one of our usuals) coffee shop. We had the best time. Conversations never flag. And the coffee and snacks are yummy.
Wishing you a quiet weekend with sunshine and smiles.

...we all need quiet moments.
I've been having a somewhat quiet week. The weekend will be quieter, thankfully. It's one thing about winter I embrace.
Love that you had grandson and daughter times and reconnected with an old friend.
And I also wrote about cozy comforts.
Have a cozy, quiet weekend!
What fun to see your dad in that Letterman photo from high school. Do they still have Lettermen in high school, I wonder. Sounds like your quiet week was nice.
