Not Our Usual Friday

Every once in a while, I mix things up a bit by serving breakfast for dinner. Our Friday afternoon meal normally involves fish or pizza, but for some time, I've been craving fried potatoes with peppers and onions alongside a sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich on an English muffin.

I'm Keeping Things as Simple as Humanly Possible Today

This has been an action-packed month for both family obligations and medical appointments for John and me. My poor hubby has been feeling under the weather, so a trip to his PCP yesterday resulted in an impromptu EKG with a reading of a left bundle branch block along with cardiac arrhythmia, which...

Beauty is In the Eye of the Beholder...

I can't imagine a world without flowers, and these pink ladies are stunningly gorgeous in my opinion. I have white and orange day lilies, but these are my favorite. As they do each summer, he deer have already eaten our tiger lilies. I am holding my breath that they don't catch sight of these... Sign in to see full entry.

We Have Had Several New Experiences the Past Few Days and Now I Need a Nap

Our high-energy grandson, who turns 13 this month, asked to spend a few days with us. He and his 15-year-old sister used to spend the night with us regularly when they were younger. His sister, Chloe, starts working today at Dairy Queen, so John arrived solo, but heavily equipped with electronics.... Sign in to see full entry.

We Dealt with a Troublemaker for More Than an Hour Yesterday

I have many different species of birds visiting my yard throughout the day, and all are welcome except the "Troublemaker." The Hawk has no issues with swooping down and snagging a chipmunk, squirrel, or a slow-moving Dove or other small bird. They are fast and aggressive when hunting prey. He tried...

Life Goes by Much Too Quickly, and Time Waits for No One

This July is a sentimental month for us as we celebrated my mother-in-law's 83rd birthday by sending birthday wishes to Heaven. She passed away unexpectedly in November. I have spent much of my morning going through old photos. I am feeling thankful that I managed to take quite a few pictures of her... Sign in to see full entry.

Late Start Today

I went to bed later than normal last night. I woke up groggy and to a laundry list of things that I need to get done today. It has been a long and busy week of work obligations, but today will be spent on overdue chores around the house. First on my list was tossing in a load of laundry. I dusted...

I'm Gearing Up for Tonight's Event

It is going to be a busy night in my small Borough with a large crowd expected to see tonight's live band down on Plum Street. It is a popular band that draws in an extra-large crowd, and I am responsible for taking photos and videos for the event that I post on our town's development corporation...

Today We Go Critter Shopping

Ever since we decided to feed the many hungry mouths that visit our yard, we have found ways to store the many treats that we purchase for our outdoor critters. I love animals, but I have no time for indoor creatures, so I look forward to watching the visiting wildlife through our kitchen window and... Sign in to see full entry.
