What is for breakfast? I ran errands this AM, so I treated myself to an ice coffee and donut from Dunkin Donuts.
What are you wearing? Right now, shirt and shorts. I'm going to change soon to dress for the pool.
Plans for today? Ran errands this AM and shaved my legs. Getting ready to wrap Dh's anniversary gifts (5 yrs on 6/16). Then, eating lunch and going to the neighborhood pool. After that, I'm making spaghetti for dinner.
Color on your nails? Nothing on my fingers right now. I need to paint them. I've been planting and spreading mulch the past 2 days so they would have been ruined. My toenails are orange.
What's for Dinner tonight? Spaghetti with homemade sauce... dh's mom's recipe. And garlic bread.
