    Sentence a Day – April 2021

    May 4, 2021 - By 

    1 / Thursday – Started trying to clean up garden area on the deck. Need to get pots ready to plant stuff in and have the place looking better for company on Easter. 2 / Friday – Rob in pieces about MLB moving the All-Star game out of Atlanta for political reasons. He had purchased A-list member tickets in hopes of getting to purchase All-Star event tickets. He’s absolutely heart broken that it won’t be in Atlanta. 3 / Saturday – Prepped Easter meal. Rob still emotional about the MLB Atlanta All Star situation. We went to nephew’s LaX game…

    Week 17 [2021]

    May 3, 2021 - By 

    Week 17 was April 26-May 2, 2021, which happened to be my week in the office. Getting home every afternoon, I collapsed in exhaustion at least for a bit. Then it’s up to cook dinner or do work in the garden. I still have so much to do in the garden. I’m actually way behind on planting, but I just haven’t wanted to fight the mosquitoes and really don’t have the energy. Anyway, on Thursday night, we went to the Korean BBQ place to celebrates Rob’s brother’s birthday. Unfortunately the restaurant was not a great experience. On another note, I…

    Memories of the Month {4.2021}

    April 30, 2021 - By 

    I’m on the blogging struggle bus, but I’m working hard to try and stay on top of things or at least get posts out as I can. This month I was happy about: getting to go to church in person and life being a little more ‘normal.’ This month I was sad about: my hip pain (sciatica) coming back. Here’s my rating system for entertainment: ♥ ♥ = Love it! A must read/see! ♥ = Really good! Highly recommend. ✓ ✓ = Good, not great ✓ = Not much to talk about X = Awful. Total waste of time Movies…

    What’s Up Wednesday ~ April 2021

    April 29, 2021 - By 

    I’m late getting this post up, but here it is. I’m linking up with Shay and Sheaffer for What’s Up Wednesday. What We’re Eating nothing exciting really. Still haven’t felt motivated to cook or menu plan. I need to start menu planning again. What I’m Reminiscing About 10 years ago around this time that we traveled to Tennessee. What I’m Loving Spindrift Sparkling Waters – I’ve tried this flavor, Orange Mango, and Blackberry. Orange Mango is not my favorite, but I loved the Blackberry. I’m really anxious to try more flavors. What We’ve Been Up To Last night we celebrated…

    Week 15 [2021]

    April 19, 2021 - By 

    Week 15 was April 12-18, 2021. I’m enjoying every day that I can while still working from home as I suspect that will be changing soon. Here’s some highlights of the week. Tuesday I brought Rob lunch at work and we sat outside near the pond behind his office. After work, I went outside to check on my newly transplanted tomato plants only to find that Kayleigh had dug some of them up and made a huge mess. Needless to say I was not happy. Wednesday Buster came to visit for the morning. He enjoyed laying on my warm heating…

    Week 14 [2021]

    April 12, 2021 - By 

    Here’s a quick drop of a few photos from this last week. Kayleigh’s eyes looked different when she was taking a nap. On Saturday, we went to watch some of Rob’s D-group guys play lacross. It was an exciting game against Homewood and Auburn won! It was such a beautiful day. After the game, Rob and I went to El Patron for a late lunch. I had a yummy margarita and the Burrito Blanco with steak. Sunday Rob cooked pork chop surprises out on the grill. We also tried Asparagus on the grill. I wrapped in foil with soy sauce.…

    Welcome back to another week of iSpy! I heard from some of you that some of these prompts seemed kind of difficult. If you participated did they end up being as hard as you thought? I found a couple of them to be a little challenging, but that’s what makes me think more about those. Honestly, when I look through my list of prompts, I don’t usually have something preconceived in my head for what I want to do. In fact, I try really not to think about what I would do as I’m making the list. Anyway, let’s get…

    Currently – April 2021

    April 7, 2021 - By 

    /arranging/ We are still working on re-arranging some stuff in our closet. I mentioned before that when we got new carpet upstairs it forced us to remove and pack up everything in the 3 bedrooms upstairs. This helped us to get a fresh start. We have an extra closet in the master that will become an extra closet for me. Rob has added storage in his office’s closet, where a lot that stuff will go. Once all that is done, I’ll finally show pictures of the new carpet upstairs. /craving/ Hmmm…I’m really not craving much of anything. I told Rob…

    Here’s this last weeks summary in pics. Week 13 is March 29-April 4, 2021. I was looking at my seedlings and saw this little curly Q and just couldn’t help but take a picture of it. Nature is amazing! And Kayleigh just has the funniest expressions. She tilts her head sometimes when she’s listening intently. Cracks me up. Pumpkin flower Messy work hair Date night at Hamilton’s Downtown. Here’s dessert – Irish Cream Crème Brûlée. We also had the Fried Green Tomatoes and Shrimp, which we have loved in the past. Wasn’t great this time. Don’t need to get it…

    Easter 2021

    April 5, 2021 - By 

    This Easter was quite a bit more ‘normal’ than 2020! Hallelujah! Rob got up early to be at church by 6:30. Our church is one of the only churches that I know of still requiring you to sign up online. Of course, Easter is a very popular church going day, so all 3 in person services filled up quickly. Our church added a 7am service and that is why he needed to be there early. Not sure if I’ve ever mentioned it here, but he is a volunteer for the Media Team. He is in charge of song lyrics and…

    Happy Easter weekend to everyone! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Thanks for joining along for the fun of photography! Here’s what I got this week… Sepia White – I used to collect clowns, but recently thought about it and realized they don’t bring me joy like they used to. I decided to pack them up all but a few. This clown that is mostly white. Its one of my favorites because she’s playing a flute (which I used to play) and her colors are subtle. Street – my street Starts with K – Katniss your choice – Side…
