I am going to try and keep this short because while I got a lot done I didn’t take a ton of pictures because I really did get a lot of relaxing done, along with a lot of other chores done too. I also started to feel really bad on Sunday so more than likely I am at the Doctor’s trying to figure out while my virus from last month won’t go away and got worse.
Friday: After work I came home and took Seamus for a walk, after he spilled all his food on the floor. Think he was excited. I noticed this bird has built it’s nest in one of the trees right by the door. It turns it eye to me whenever I come home and the nest is just big enough for it to sit, so precious. I also picked up some Raz-Ber-ritas.
Saturday: I spent the morning reading, cleaning my spare bedroom, snuggling with Seamus and doing chores. This counts as my Picture Practice Close-up prompt since he was all up in my face! 😉
I had put a bucket in the spare room with some odds and ends when I re-decorated my office and I had yet to go through it. Most of it was photos, old cards and letters from friends, and computer equipment. Then I found this gem of an old Christmas list. I believe it was a year or two out of college and I obnoxiously was into a lot of philosophy books. Clearly I was a little obsessed, I don’t know what I was thinking because my Dad would never buy me books. I think he got me a gift card to Barnes and Noble so I got a lot of them. I have read all of those on the list and still have a few of them too. I think i was trying to “find myself”. If only I could slap my younger self. Haha!
See that face? How can I ever say no to that face? I can’t. I took him on a 3.7 mile walk so he was a tired little bugger after, success.
Sunday: I was reading my book and Seamus wanted to snuggle instead. I finished the book and then did some more cleaning. I had a lot of yard work to do so I raked, put down some soil and grass seed. I still have a lot more work to do but it was a good start. After a trip to the grocery store I worked on the Spanakopita recipe and it came out perfectly. I figured out why it wasn’t working, it need more cheese. Duh?! The ratio of spinach to feta was making it dry and let flavorful. I’ll be sharing the recipe tomorrow.
How was your weekend?

kathy@vodkandsoda says
blah! are you sick? it sucks being sick; maybe all the up and down weather is the cause of it because a lot of people are sick here as well.
and i wouldn’t mind seamus all up in my grill; he’s adorable 🙂
Kerry says
I’ve been sick for the last month!! My cough wouldn’t go away and it’s getting more into my lungs. Heading back to the doctors. 🙁
He really is cute so I deal with the frito breath! Haha!
Biana says
Sorry to hear you still aren’t feeling well – but hopefully they’ll be able to give you some medicine!! You got a ton of steps in… I lost my fitbit (fell off my belt loop) and I’ve been feeling lost ever since!! Trying to decide which one to get!!
Kerry says
Thanks it’s pneumonia! 🙁 I am getting cough syrup with codeine and antibiotics so hopefully will finally feel better! I have the fitbit one and I clip it to my bra face side in so if it falls off it falls into my bra! 😉
Linda Sheridan says
Healing lights to you! We have the busiest year starting now! Never this many events! 4 weddings and the showers to go with them. A communion party yesterday, graduation parties, and our Sean back playing with the New York Red Bull U-23 team- so to North Jersey for his games! So all nice busy stuff. Weather is still iffy, but looking to be in the 80’s from Friday on! My chickens will be with me poolside on Mother’s Day- my favorite thing! Lucky me! Pool opening 5/8!
Looking forward to your recipe tomorrow!
love SMD’s Momma
Kerry says
Thank you so much! Sounds like you are going to be really busy!! That is a lot but I am sure all fun stuff. A poolside Mother’s day sounds fabulous, hopefully they wait on your hand and foot. 😉
Chloe says
Your weekends make me smile. I love all the reading you get done. And the generalness of being able to do what ever you want!

Jessica says
How are the rasberritas?? I haven’t tried those!
Kerry says
They are so good! Even better than the strawberry ones.
Melissa @ Loving Life Moore says
Oh no! I’m sorry you’ve been feeling sick, girl! I swear I was never more sick than when I lived in New England. Arizona has done wonders for my health haha
Kerry says
It is rough, and I got the flu shot. Ugh! So many shifts in weather makes it hard not to catch something.
Kristen says
sounds like a perfect weekend, except for the you need to hurry up and get better! boo. also, Raz-Ber-ritas? i need those.
Kerry says
I so need to get better, been way to long! They are so good, and tied with the Mango-Beer-ritas!
Emily says
how do you like those raz-ber-ritas? I;ve been meaning to pick up some and also perfect to celebrate Cinco de Mayo 😉 Can’t wait to read your spanakopita recipe!
Kerry says
They are really good tied with the Mango ones too. They are better than the original and strawberry.
Sarah @ beauty school dropout says
Mmm… spanakopita! Was it hard to make?
Kerry says
It wasn’t that hard at all. It was more prep than anything difficult. So worth it though.
jackie says
hope you’re feeling better! and my dogs always end up spilling their food all over the place too ha. so messy!
Kerry says
So messy. He doesn’t even care either he just eats it off the floor. Haha!
Lauren says
I hope you’re feeling better, or at least getting answers! I think you needed some rest so glad that you got it!
Kerry says
Thank you. Yes, it’s pneumonia so I have some meds to help get better. I think my body needed the rest whether I wanted it or not.
Margaret says
So excited for that recipe!!
With our new pup- we can’t keep her food bowl and water bowl next to each other….because for three days in a row, her full food bowl ended up completely dumped into her water bowl by the end of the day. No idea how she did it!
Kerry says
I am so glad to have a recipe for it to make at home now. Awww probably trying to step in the bowl. They get so excited. Love it, puppies are so fun!
Allison says
I just live for the weekends when I can watch cheesy Hallmark movies and chill out in bed.
Kerry says
They really are the best weekends! It let me get caught up on life! Haha!

Kerry says
Thank you. I am ready to be well again. I was so glad to find a combination that works. So good. He really does make everyday better.
Lynsey @ Eternally Wanderlyn says
I hope you’re feeling better! Being sick is the worst, but at least you have Seamus to keep you company. He is adorable! 😀
Kerry says
Thank you. Hopefully the medicine will kick in soon. Seamus is keeping my company for sure with lots of snuggles. Thank you.
Anna says

Kerry says
Thank you. Yes it was restful at least.
kellee says
That spanokopita looks delish!!!!! and Seamus is so handsome!
Kerry says

Kelly (@KRod0519) says
Ugh! So sorry you’re not feeling well. Snuggle with Seamus, and rest as you need to. I hope you’re feeling better soon.
Kerry says
Thank you. A month is too long to be sick, glad I have medicine to finally get better. Snuggles with Seamus always make it better. Thank you.
Maddie says
Rasberitas huh? You are rude. You know why;)
Kerry says
Haha! I know why! It will be worth it!
Kim says
So sorry that you are feeling so crummy. I hope the DR can figure out what is going on and hopefully you will be back to 100% soon!
Kerry says
Thank you! I had walking pneumonia and then I had a reaction to the meds. I am feeling better today though.
Leeann @ Join the Gossip says
Oh no! Are you still sick?! I hope not 🙁
How’s that Raz-ber-ita? Sounds delish!
Thanks for linking up for MMG 🙂
Kerry says
Yes, for a month. They are so good and they are tied with the Mango ones!
Kimberlee VDW (@KimberleeVDW) says
Oh no! Hope your doctor can help diagnosis while your virus won’t go away 🙁 That must be awful.
Thanks for linking up!
Kerry says
Thank you! It was pneumonia so I got some antibiotics and will hopefully be getting better soon!
Kate says
Are you feeling better now? Relaxing weekends are no good if you’re not feeling well!
Kerry says
Finally! I actually had a reaction to the antibiotics so I was in so much pain yesterday. Back to normal at least.
Melanie @ Ribbons and Rotor Blades says
I love the Raz one! I actually don’t care for the original lime ones but I love the Raz, Cran, and Mango! Have you tried the Cran or Mango?
Kerry says
The lime ones are meh! The strawberry wasn’t bad but a little aftertaste. The Mango and Raz are tied for first place but I haven’t tried the Cran ones yet.
