10 on the 10th | February
Hey, y’all, hey! How are you doing? I’m doing well. Just trying to adjust to this topsy turvy weather. One day it’s in the seventies and the next it’s in the fifties. I cannot deal. I need stability. I need even temps. Warm temps. Hopefully, we’re on the upswing. Yes, I know it’s winter. But I’m gonna complain every time it rolls around. I’m consistent that way. ABOUT 10 ON THE 10TH 10 on the 10th is hosted by Leslie at Once Upon a Time and Happily Ever After and Marsha at Marsha in the Middle.

The color pop against the red doors, with the sliver of green, it was…

We’ve been going through a cold spell over here and I am so. over. it. So I decided to bring a little color to my day. With a side of flowers.

Where Bloggers Live: What I Drive
Happy New Year and welcome to Where Bloggers Live ! I hope you had a pleasant entry into 2022 and that things are looking much brighter for you and your family. We had a quiet holiday. Much like last year. I spent the day in my pajamas, watching The Twilight Zone marathon. This is something I’ve done just about every year for the last decade or so. I think I’ve seen every episode, still I find something new. Way back in the day, when I used to teach American history, I used to share snippets of the show for discussions about the 1950s and 60s. It made for some fun…

I think it’s contrary to my nature; I’m more of an Ohhhhh, the wind is blowing left? Then let’s go left kind of person. The Hubs is the planner in this relationship. He has lists for everything.

Hey! How’s 2022 treating you so far? This first week has been off to a rocky start for me. My family has had to deal with a couple of non-COVID related medical issues. And, I’m not gonna lie, it has been overwhelming. However, things are smoothing out so maybe 2022 will get better? Do you make resolutions? I don’t. I used to do so but then I’d get frustrated when I failed to meet my goals. That’s why I no longer write blog goals. Life is stressful enough without adding to the internal drama. This year is all about eliminating any and everything that doesn’t bring me joy. PHOTO INFO…
