    T Tuesday: Java edition

    April 14, 2015 - By 

    I thought I’d share another page in my coffee theme altered book on this T stands for Tuesday. I can see the end of the book. I’m estimating I only have room for 3 more spreads. Longest project ever!!

    Now that it’s nearing completion, I’m really trying to grind it out… *grin*

    plant update

    I thought I’d give a little peek at my seedlings. They are getting leggy…time to transplant into slightly bigger pots.

    I also had to share this gorgeous photo of Gracie that Little J aka Mini-me aka JR took the other day. I knew she was using my camera but wasn’t sure for what. She definitely has an eye for lighting.

    I’ve got errands, phone calls and chores on my list today. Living the dream. 🙂

    T Tuesday: eventful week edition

    March 31, 2015 - By 

    T stands for Tuesday_200Welcome to another edition of T stands for Tuesday hosted by Elizabeth and Bleubeard. It’s time to share a beverage and talk about what ever the heck is on your mind!water for tea tuesday

    Holy cow!! We’ve definitely had a week to remember…or at minimum…an early morning to remember. We found out that our volunteer fire dept has a really good response at 6:20 in the morning. And we didn’t even have a fire…just needed EMT’s.  They just kept walking through my front door. I won’t go into the details but no transport was needed and all is fine now.

    After commenting to friend about all the men in my livingroom that morning I saw this on Pinterest and it made me laugh!!

    And back to normalcy. I created a cover page or perhaps it would be the title page for my latest journal. I decided to leave the name of the original owner of the book. It gives the book more history in my mind.

    My seedlings are doing really well. I picked up an herb pot at Trader Joe’s and have placed it inside the protective plastic bin as well to keep it safe from you know who. Naughty Miss Gracie.

    I also got the pink streak put in my hair again.  halfThe kids are on Spring Break this week. We are enjoying a mellow week at home. Little J and I saw Cinderella yesterday. It was pretty good. More sad than the animated version but not as dark as the original fairy tale.

    I’m not sure what the rest of today has in store yet. That’s the beauty of vacation right?!?

    T Tuesday: update edition

    March 24, 2015 - By 

    T stands for Tuesday rolls around all too quickly each week! I feel like I’m playing catch up all the time. moody tea

    I thought I’d give you a little update on life around here.

    Not much has changed with the seeds I’ve started other than the view outside is a little white. We got about 4″ of snow which is actually good since we were under a red flag fire warning. 20150323_7478

    If you look really closely you can see a few little bits of green popping through the soil.

    I also wanted to share about Little J’s surgery. It went really well. She is up and around almost as if nothing had ever happened. She is even going to school today a mere 3 days after knee surgery. Crazy!! Miracles of modern medicine and the resiliency of youth!!
