Late Post! Sorry!

Pictures of Mothers' Day flowers!

Thank you, girls!  Love you both so much!

Love

Flowers from Les because he loves me. 💕 

I love you, too, honey!

Breakfast Out!

We haven't been out to eat in several months.  We needed to take our TLX in for service this morning and drop her off at 7:30.

We went to Eggs Up Grill.  We've gone to Eggs Up many times, it's a favorite and we ate there every trip to Myrtle Beach, as well as other locations when we've traveled.  And one opened up in Hampton last year!  It was lovely and one of the largest ones we've ever been in.  

Les said it felt strange and I agreed with him.  But we got in and seated, staff was nice, food was good.

Haven't heard about the car yet.  

Stay safe and take care of yourselves.  Life is good.

Pearls Before Swine

We get our newspaper online now.  I admit that I just scan right over many of the articles and reports.    I basically do the same process when watching my recording of the "Today Show".  I watch the news reports all the way through the first time they run them because I do want to know what's going on in the world.  But then I fast forward through the repeat reports.  I can only take so much bad news.

But when looking at the paper, I always check the comics section.  The following is a recent "Pearls" strip.

Take care of yourselves and stay safe.  Life is still good, just some days a little better than others.

Be kind and God Bless America.

Thinking About Our Mothers

There are often times I would like to talk with Mom.  I am sure she knows and hears me though.  I would like to tell her how much I appreciate how hard she worked to provide for us.  I never felt deprived and always felt loved and safe.  She always told me that if something needed to be done, just put a smile on my face and do it.  I hope she knows I am trying.  I hope she knows she raised a strong, smart daughter.  I miss you Mom, and love you.

And, to Les' Mom, I want to say we miss you and love you.  I want you to know what a wonderful man you raised.  He loves and has served his country, he is a wonderful husband and father and grandfather.  Right now, life is not always easy, but we are accepting and adapting.  You can be proud of him. 

Love you both and miss you. 💕💕  

Time Has Gotten Away Again!

 Been busy here for me.  The "To-Do" list keeps growing.

There have been some doctor appointments for us, and an ER trip for Les.  That was followed by a return visit the next day for more blood work to be done.  He is recuperating from an infection and doing okayish.  

We had some yardwork done by the landscaping company we use.  They removed some dying bushes, planted a new Azalea, edged/trenched all the mulch areas, and put down new shredded Cedar mulch.  Looks nice and much better.  I have watered some shrubs and plants a couple times and fertilized all the shrubs.  I hope our sprinkler system gets turned back on this week; the company is short staffed.  I am waiting to hear from them!

I said bye to the porch pansies, their time was up and they were "on their last leg" from the heat we had.  Today the A/C is off again the heat is turned back on.  It was 45 when we got up this morning.  I have washed the flower pots and hope to get to the garden center this week to get Geraniums for the porch.

We had our man that did our siding come and repair some molding around the garage door.  No idea how it got damaged.  One thought was that during the extreme cold and snow, we had some ice formed under the molding.  He wasn't sure.  But it's all fixed now.

Take care of yourselves and stay safe.  Life is still good.  Be kind and God Bless America.

And here are some pictures of our yard work. 💗

Hello!

 

I thought I'd start with a picture of a recent beautiful sunrise.

I hope everyone is well and staying safe.  Les and I are okayish here.  The weather was hot for a few days and then got cold again.  

The pollen is slowly getting lighter as more and more trees and plants have gotten leaves.  We had that  heavy storm on Easter that poured rain for a while.  The water coming out of the down spouts was bright yellow and running all along the curbs.  At least it washed the pollen off the roof!

I met with the landscaper we have used before and his company will be removing several aged and dying shrubs for us and edging our mulched areas before putting down new mulch.  They will call when we are on the schedule.

I've been plugging away at some of the things that need attention inside and out.  The list just keeps growing. But eventually the things will get done. I figure they will wait for me!

Take care of yourselves and be kind.  God Bless America!  Life is still good.
