The last few days have been busy and we’ve accomplished quite a bit. We decided to downsize with regard to the microwave. We’ve had a large Panasonic, 1,250 W since 2010 and we don’t really use it for cooking, mainly for reheating left-overs. It’s quite large and takes up a lot of room and weContinue reading “Hump Day”

St. Patrick’s Day
It’s after 12 pm now and I picked up our grocery order after we had breakfast. Brad brought us breakfast croissants from the coffee shop and we enjoyed a pot of coffee. It was 35° when we got up this morning and it’s up to 45° now, sunny and breezy, too cool to be workingContinue reading “St. Patrick’s Day”
Storm Hit, Generac Running!
Today 12 yr old Joshua and I had a day together. We stopped at Best Buy and found some movies. I found the complete boxed set, entire series of Magnum PI, the original series, for Audrey. He picked out two movies, one is a newer Spiderman movie that his sister has been waiting for andContinue reading “Storm Hit, Generac Running!”
Storms Have Arrived
This was the view out of the living room window at 4:15 this afternoon. It’s 7 pm now, dark, and the second round of storms has arrived. We got some work done in the garage today, moved some things around, blowing the dirt and debris out. We were finishing when the worst of it hit.Continue reading “Storms Have Arrived”
It Was Only A Little Shopping Trip
We stopped for Mexican food after we left the chiropractor and then headed off to do some grocery shopping. The list wasn’t very long. The lines at the registers were. I thought I had chosen a decent cart but after it had a case of water and some bottles of RC and Canada Dry inContinue reading “It Was Only A Little Shopping Trip”
What A Difference A Day Makes
OK, then! Let’s get this show on the road and pick up where I left off, except I’m no longer feeling like crud and no longer bored. Reset! First of all, I’m not the only one in the house battling the crud. I’m a lot better but I had to go in and pick upContinue reading “What A Difference A Day Makes”
Roast Beef For Sunday
I ordered a pot roast with my grocery order yesterday and put it in the crock pot with new potatoes, carrots, red onion, a cup of water and a cup of red wine after seasoning it with freshly ground sea salt and freshly ground peppercorn blend. I set it on low at 10 pm andContinue reading “Roast Beef For Sunday”
Good Morning Monday!
By 8 am the sun was creeping over the tops of the trees, frost on the ground started to disappear, blue skies and big fluffy clouds floating by. Gorgeous Monday morning. I’m looking forward to our morning walk shortly. It’s already 50° at 10 am so we might be able to have the front doorContinue reading “Good Morning Monday!”
Friday!
The work week is winding down and the weekend is approaching. Trying to get any shopping done this week has been nuts! Traffic is unbelievable. How there aren’t a string of fatality wrecks is beyond me. One elderly woman parked next to Brad in the grocery store parking lot put her car in gear, trompedContinue reading “Friday!”
Another Dreary Day
It’s in the low 50’s, overcast and a bit foggy this morning. All in all, another dreary day. We have errands to run later and it’s supposed to reach the high 60’s with a slight chance of rain but I doubt we’ll get much. We will be picking up a few things today and makingContinue reading “Another Dreary Day”
