This month I was sad about: all the sadness and violence in our country right now.

My favorite song this month was: Peace Be Still by Hope Darst
What I remember about work was: continuing to work from home even after the 2nd date of “reconsideration.” I’m still going in every 7th business day. We did get 8 students to start coming in on May 18th. We allowed swipe access for faculty and grad students as of that date.
A lesson I learned this month was: having nice outdoor furniture can really be more inviting
A friend and I: saw each other when we helped her move a hot tub!
My favorite pic that I took was:
This is not a great pic compositionally, but I love that this pic is taken just a short drive from my house. We are so lucky to have such beautiful places to hike and explore.
The favorite thing I cooked was: porkloins and pork chops in the Instant Pot are amazing! I plan to share recipes soon.
Drew: started working for the library systems department, but this time it’s virtually. He’s been asking since he got done with school to cook dinner. A couple weeks ago he just cooked kabobs on the grill and it was so good!
Alex was: finished his 10th grade year at home because of COVID 19.
Rob was: trying to make some changes to our wifi to help it be faster.
The thing I’ll remember most from this month was: getting my first harvest of lettuce and herbs and seeing my first tomatoes fruit. They’re still small, but they’re sprouting and growing.
Look back at last month.
Archive – needs to be updated.
Your young tomatoes are adorable. Like Barbie-sized veggies. We have peaches over here to match. Hope our peaches will be as delicious as they were a few years ago.
Do you know the blogger Nikki Gwin? Her blog is mostly about gardening. I think the name of the blog has recently changed so I can’t remember it to share with you. But I am sure you would enjoy her posts.
We just invested in new patio furniture at PC’s reluctance. But our backyard is so much more attractive and enticing now. I want to be out there all the time. And when I am not out there, I am looking out the window at our space!!
P.S. Please consider adding this post to our Sentence a Day posts link up going live on Tuesday.
We watch so many of the same shows!! (And I’d give them similar ratings too). I am so jealous of all your veggies. I have tried for years to grow a few plants in pots and other than a few batches of basil never ended up with much of anything for all our work. I just can not keep plants alive.
Our gardens are certainly benefitting from all the extra time we are spending in them! We actually picked some strawberries from the garden yesterday – boy did they taste delicious, there’s something about eating something you’ve grown yourself isn’t there?
Interesting to see your tv/film ratings, we share similar tastes! I’ve just finished Dead to Me season two … looks like there may be a season three to be made sometime in the future!
