My husband and I are going to take a 4 day weekend this week. We were going to travel, but my parrot is recovering from being very sick and I don't feel that she is quite well enough to leave for 4 days. (Our pet sitter is not experienced with birds.) We have decided to do some day trips instead.

We have a lot of projects we need to do. However, we really want this to be relaxing, so we will pick just a couple of things to get done. One will be a project I wanted to do last weekend, but ran out of time for. Another I want to do because it will make me feel better about things is to go through the stuff in the door shelves of our fridge, get rid of things we aren't going to use, and clean the shelves. Who knows, we might even go through the whole fridge, and the freezer. It will be so nice to open the fridge and see nice, clean shelves.

Tomorrow we are going to go to the zoo. I will make sure that we either pack a lunch, or go to the zoo after lunch. I love to take photos at the zoo because my camera has a zoom lens and I can get some great close-ups of the big cats, polar bears etc. They have such beautiful faces.
