It was the week that was ALL about the Iditarod…and not much else…
though I did manage to get a few things done mid-week when almost everyone took their complusory 24 rest at the same time….
It was the week Christy decided she was going to follow the Iditarod too and drew a photo of her favourite musher Aliy Zirkle winning the race… she’s currently coming first…
and the week I cut out all the nasty additives out of my diet and saw an immediate reduction in my arthritis pain… time will tell…
It was the week that started out with sunshine…
which meant I could hang my washing outdoors…
but then the rain and cold returned and it was time to make some pumpkin soup…
But the sun did return….and with it this most glorious sunset…
It was the week I attended the Hawks game by myself….
and had the most lovely day out in Berry with Paola….
It was the week Amy’s Hunger Games mockingjay pin arrived in the mail…. she’s just a “little” mad about the books and upcoming movie…
and the week we got a few double yolker eggs..unfortunately this one split….
It was the week of fried rice…
nachos…
and chocolate zucchini bread…
And it was the week of pups looking out the window…
assisting Nan with the weeding…
recovering from a bike run (as Nan & Pop have gone away in the caravan for 3 weeks)….
and making us laugh….
The Iditarod should finish on Wed….then life will return to normal…. until next March….
