Michael and I went through a few years of feeling off because we don't celebrate Easter like most of our friends..no kids, no big family dinners, etc.
Today, we went for a drive, ran to the store (the need for cat litter respects NO holiday) and had takeout for lunch. We played with the dogs, read for a bit, walked the property and made plans.
We're making pizza for dinner. We're happy with our Easters now...look forward to them. I also have to laugh a little (not unkindly) at our married-with-kids friends who envy our quiet holiday at home. I do miss big family dinners with all of my cousins swarming around, but I very much appreciate my life as is.
The Rose-breasted Grosbeaks are back! I didn't see them last summer and I worried we lost them as summer residents. I couldn't be happier!
Oh, those are wonderful! I've only seen 1 here once!
ReplyDeleteI spent the day at home with the dogs. Hubby is out of town for work. No family get-to-gether either. Just another Sunday. :)
I tend to have low-key holidays too. It took me a little while before I stopped feeling like I was doing something wrong because I was doing it differently, but now I enjoy them. My dad came over today, and we poked around the yard for a few hours. Holiday or not, that's pretty great to me.
