Up at a decent time this morning. Trash out and first cup of coffee down. I need to fill more coffee pods if I want a second (or 3rd or 4th) cup. I'll do a feed run this morning and pick up a few groceries while I'm out. It's chilly and I'd rather stay inside until the sun is doing its job a...

That's cool too!

I love that! Dinner is gonna be smoked, bbq'd chicken thighs. I lit the fire (small miracle some time) and got some smoking chips on it and I'll hope for the best. For me, chicken on the barby can sometimes be tricky. If so I'll likely finish it in the oven.

That had to be hard! Did ya'll go at the same time? I know a lot of this is pure selfishness on my part. I want him close enough to get to in a day. I am proud of him for wanting to serve, but after losing his mom I'm terrified that something bad could happen...

Thanks for that. DGS is one of those over-achiever kids, lol. He will do well, but I still wish he were off to a university instead of this...

I like it!

Back in the 70's I worked in a little country store in our little rural town. There was still a meat counter where we had those big rolls of bologna, blocks of cheese, and fully cooked summer sausage. We had a big ol' slicer that would sure take off your fingers if you weren't careful. I...

Every time we went camping when I was a child we had fried spam, potatoes and onions. Cooked in cast iron skillet, over an open flame - nothing better! I occasionally still crave it and when I do - I have it. Also had lots of fried bologna back in the day - couldn't afford bacon. Mom would...

Working on the first cup of coffee. Kind of a rough morning. Grandson is leaving for basic training today. I knew he'd grow up and go out on his own someday, but this is rough...

DH wanted that culinary delight known as spam... I had a baked sweet potato, lol!

That makes sense. Always exciting to be house hunting!

Hard to believe it's already been 10 years. Crazy how time flies!

Yay for retirement! Hope you find the perfect place to move to. Are you considering a BIG move - like out of state?

Oh he// no! I ain't no quitter, lol. I'm down 21 lbs since starting in October and I'm not quitting until I shed a bit more. Been increasing the physical stuff too. Feeling stronger and adding in more strength building work. Ok - coffee number one is being inhaled while contemplating...

Every one of my does this season has delivered at least a few days early. Most years breeding dates lead to predictable deliveries - this year all bets are off!

Didn't work on the water line at all today. We have a service contract with a septic company to do quarterly inspections. Today was the day. Usually, it's not a big deal at all, but everything they needed to check was covered with ant mounds. I got the weed whacker and cleaned 'em up a...

Need that hat!

Yay for a walk! We were windy all day. It wasn't terrible, but my hair wasn't fond of it, lol.

Sounds like a great plan!

I need to get me some of those!
