J and I were surprised to find some feathered friends from the city on our deck this morning eating breakfast.

This week started off nice with the 3 day weekend. Being off Monday for Memorial Day was great even though it rained here. Memorial Day is our first holiday at work since New Years, so I always look forward to it.
On Sunday, I finished up grocery shopping, going to two places to do it just to be able to use up my coupons. I saved $22 though so it was worth it. Saving money and clipping coupons is not an easy thing to do.
On Sunday, I also started a final edit of a short story collection I’m working on. So far, it’s going well and I hope to finish the edit this week. Also on Sunday, I worked quite a bit on the book blog writing posts and reviews for June. We’ve moved the blog by the way. It’s now at www.llbookreview.com. Check it out and let me know what you think.
J and I went to see Star Trek on Monday. Not being a Trekky, I thought it was a great film overall. Great special effects and I’m glad to have seen it on the big screen!
Tuesday and Wednesday night we watched So You Think You Can Dance, our favorite reality show! We love it more than Idol. It was fun to see them in my old stomping grounds in Memphis on Tuesday night.
Friday night, thanks to Netflix, we watched the next five shows of HBO’s True Blood Season 1. This is an amazing show mixed with love, lust, sex, drugs, backwoods Louisiana accents, and vampires. I love it!
It rained almost every day this week, and being only a four day work week, work itself was quite stressful. But there was a just a bit of peace and happy yesterday when my lilies started blooming on the back porch. I awoke today to two blooms. A friend at work gave me the lily for my birthday last month. I snapped this photo of it this morning just after the rain.
And that’s my week end review.
