Mel’s Monday Musings: February 24, 2020

February 24, 2020 ~ melstery ~ 1 Comment

Hey there! How are you? Surviving Monday? It was almost unseasonably warm here today, at 45F!

Y'all...I did something silly. 😂 But with everything we've all been through this past year, I think it's important to recognize the good things every chance we get. So here are my "Kindled" Oreos to celebrate the Saturday Songwriters and everything we've accomplished together! (They're not going to last long in my house.)
Pretty sunset sky. 😍
