The Shafferland Shuffle

I am writing the Shuffle to you from our garage sale on Saturday. It's I'm-not-sure-how-hot outside, but it's a toasty 88 degrees in the garage, and I'm wilting in all the ways. It's too hot to drink coffee, but without it, you see...I fade. So here's to hoping this makes sense!

* Last Sunday was the next in the line of graduation open houses we have on our calendar this year. This one was for one of Ryan's co-worker's sons, and I loved the quarantine nod!! Otherwise, it was a pretty uneventful day. AKA a nice, restful day.

* Monday was Ryan's first day back to his old shift at the rehab hospital. Masks for the win!! That night we walked to the store (which isn't super far, but also isn't super close) and I realized when I got there, I'd forgotten my mask AGAIN. (This is not the first time this has happened.) I keep mine in my purse, but I'd left my purse at home. Fail. So I waited outside while Ryan went in! And look at our pretty sunset for the walk home!

* Tuesday I worked on filling binders for the worship team, and Ryan had fun catching up with all his co-workers he hasn't seen forever! And while he went to board meeting at church that night, I worked on pricing stuff for our garage sale! Knocked out most of it, too!

* Wednesday night we had pizza for the first time in WELL over a month, and it was amazing. I was so happy!! And because my heart was feeling overwhelmed (in good ways) I spent extra time with my devos that night. (Had no idea Ryan sneaked in a picture of me doing it!)

* Our church is having a rummage sale this summer, and on Thursday the organizing ladies let me have some of the spare boxes so we could organize stuff too! I couldn't really see out the back to drive home, but three cheers for free boxes! That night we had dinner with some of Ryan's family, and his Uncle Dave's little dog was there. Miss Lucy. I loved her so much and wanted to sneak her in my purse and bring her home!! I also wanted to bring home all the cake. That Aunt Sandy is a GOOD cook.

* I didn't have to take my lunch to work on Friday and in not packing that, I accidentally forgot to pack my breakfast too. Whoopsie. One of the staff pastors called while he was out running errands and asked if I might like a coffee. And there was breakfast!!! I met Ryan and a couple of our friends for lunch (salad to follow the pizza earlier in the week) and that afternoon I stuffed activity bags for kids at church!

* Yesterday was our garage sale, and we sold a ton of stuff! Ryan and I worked it together and had the best time. Saw lots of friends, sold lots of stuff, and did a lot of sweating. That's a full day, right there! After the sale was over, I baked some cookies for Father's Day (which keeps totally sneaking up on me).
