 My ideal week is easy to describe in one word.... peaceful. I'd start out on a beautiful Sunday morning with some coffee on the front porch with my dogs. They like to lay in front of me and keep an eye on the bad guys. This is followed by breakfast as I make a list of the things i want to do (but never will) such paint, redecorate, read an entire book. Whatever I aspire to do, I aspire to do it alone. Rarely do I want company. I'd like to go through the entire week without seeing another soul except my family and I'd be happy.  I try not to have more than one outing in a day, more than two days a week, not including weekends. Weekends are for my husband. he likes to GO and DO, so I save my energy for him, and he makes it fun.Usually. Monday through Friday would be quiet, calm and serene with some cooking, cleaning, reading, plant conversations... while Saturday and Sunday we drive around, go to the beach for coffee, yardsales, shopping, visiting, talking. Honestly I have a charmed life because I get to choose what I do and dont do every day and I am so fortunate.

The seasons are changing, autumn is in the air. Its more enjoyable to spend time outside with the cooler temps and the changing leaves, though every season has its highlights.
