    Week 18 [2021]

    May 13, 2021 - By 

    Week 18 was May 3-9, 2021. Another week of being in the office. I’m not missing being at home as much. Honestly too busy to have much time to ponder on it. 🙂 Here’s a few highlights from the week. Muddy girl! This girl loves to dig and stick her nose down the chipmunk holes. She is so funny. She won’t look at me because she knows I’m not happy with her. I’ve been wanting some new t-shirts. I think mainly working from home for the last year, I’ve been wearing mostly tshirts everyday. I have gotten tired of the…

    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…

    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.…

    Week 13 [2021]

    April 6, 2021 - By 

    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…

    Week 8 [2021]

    March 1, 2021 - By 

    Here’s a run down of last week! It was a pretty busy and productive week. Monday Drew and Caitlyn and Buster came over. Drew and Rob made plans for the weekend. Tuesday Got my COVID shot #2! Got kind of a weird headache minutes after the injection. They do ask us to wait in the holding area for 15 minutes to make sure you don’t have a serious reaction. By the time my 15 minutes was up the headache was quite dull, so I went on with my day. These are the current signs on campus. Carpet was installed! No…

    Week 7 [2021]

    February 22, 2021 - By 

    Hey ya’ll! Last week I mentioned I was thinking of renaming my “The Weekly” posts. I had thought about calling them “Life Lately” or something like that. But for now I think I’m just going to use the Week # and the year. Simple and to the point. And who knows I may end up changing it again. Monday Rob and Drew have been so anxious to see how many season tickets people would be allowed to purchase. We got an email a couple weeks ago that they would only allowed 20% capacity, which is really total overkill in my…

    The Weekly [1.25-2.14.2021]

    February 15, 2021 - By 

    I’ve really done a bad job of keeping up with my ‘the weekly’ posts lately. I’m thinking about changing what they’re called because they’ve kind of morphed from what these posts are supposed to be. Plus when I went to start this post, I thought I was a week behind. Turns out, I’m 3 weeks behind. *eyeroll!* So let’s jump back to the week of Jan. 25th… Rob helped me set up my new phone and I’m still getting used to the way a 12 works differently than a 7. This was the week Rob was having really bad muscle…

    Hey yall! How was your weekend? Mine was good…for the most part. We celebrated Drew’s 23rd birthday. Man, as I type that, it makes me feel old. How am I old enough to have a kid that age?! I’m changing my “The Weekly” posts to run Monday-Sunday instead of Sunday-Saturday, but this week is my transition so this one runs Sunday-Sunday. I have wanted to do that for some time because that way I have the entire weekend in 1 post not splitting Sunday off from it, which I don’t prefer. Anyway, let’s jump in to last week! PICS &…

    January 19, 2021 - By 

    I know I keep saying it, but man, this year has been so busy so far. How are we already more than half way done with January? I was looking back to see when my last “The Weekly” post was, which was from back in December! My iPhone camera is dying and so I have quit taking pictures with it. I’m supposed to be getting a new phone through my work, but there’s some type of delay with it. Anyway, so this post usually includes pics from my iPhone. Although the last several months, most pics are from one of…

    Another week gone in a blink. PICS & GOINGS ON The bookends of our week were full fledge Christmas decorating. Sunday we went Christmas tree shopping. Friday we went shopping for new outside lights. Rob is completely over the icicle lights that we have been hanging on the house. We ended up spending way to much money, but feel ok about it as we felt like we needed an upgrade and we’re almost completely LED lights outside now. Saturday Caitlyn and Drew came over to make sausage balls. Drew had cut his finger the night before and decided it would…

I am so ready! iPHONE PICS & GOINGS ON Kayleigh sheds more than any corgi we’ve had, I think. I’ve been trying to brush her every other day, but last week was crazy and I didn’t get to it. You can see this large ball of hair that I got off her. Her nails also grow extremely fast. We use a Dremel to file her nails. That’s what her…

    This week’s weekly is actually from the last 2 weeks. I started writing this post last week, but didn’t have a ton to share. I ended up deciding to just combine the 2 weeks. PICS & GOINGS ON Here was my 2nd day in a row to watch LaX, but this time it was to watch my nephews play. It was a championship game. My older nephew got the tying goal, which was so very exciting. Their team ended up winning! The last few weeks I’ve been watching a lot of YouTuber that talk about buying hauls as well as…

Here’s my weekly recap from last week. 🙂 PICS & GOINGS ON Last week Hurricane Zeta brought us lots of wind and rain. Wednesday night our power went out about 3am and didn’t come back on until 2:30pm Thursday. That made for an interesting work day since I’m working from home. Luckily I had some paper work to go through and organize. This was a tree that pulled down power…

    Here’s my run down from last week that I call “The Weekly.” How was last week for you? I worked from home and didn’t really have a lot going on, which if you know me…You know I love! Oh I almost forgot. Last Sunday I got together with a few of my friends from Cookbook Club. This was our first gathering since COVID. We didn’t bring food to share. We just brought our own food/drink. We sat outside on Joscie’s front porch and enjoyed conversations while socially distanced of course! It was so good to have some girl time. No…

Rob and Drew went the Auburn football game Saturday. This is a pretty big deal with COVID. Auburn decided to make game by game decisions on who can attend. The first game was pretty much students only. This game, which was the 2nd home game was a mix of season ticket holder and students. It was a yucky, rainy day. Hence the reason I didn’t go. So it was a pretty bleak…
