Welcome Bear – 23/365

This  is a bear statue I picked up at one of our local Goodwill stores for $4.  When I purchased it, it was in all shades of gray and pretty chipped up, at that.  I took it home, repainted it, sealed it and now this guy lives on my back deck.  I’m always on the...

Out to Dry – 21/365

I first posted about my line drying back in April when I was using the umbrella hole in the patio table for the laundry line.  Turns out it’s just too windy here for that to work well for me, so Jason screwed down a handy dandy brace on the corner of the upper...

Shakeology – 20/365

This is what I look forward to every day for lunch. It may seem like a boring old diet drink – but it’s not.  It is a meal replacement. It is full of natural vitamins, minerals and nutrients that the body needs on a daily basis. It DOES taste like a...

Little Chillin’ Chiweenie – 14/365

L.B. has now been with us since February, so almost a good 6 months. He has settled in extremely well and very quickly.  As with most chihuahua’s, he took longer than most dogs to house train, but he crate trained immediately and fit right in with Giant Dawg and...

Oldham County Fair – 10/365

This evening we headed out to El Acapulco with Christina and Charlie, a fantastic Mexican restaurant here locally that we all go to often.  Then we headed out to the HUGE Oldham County Fair!  ( Ok, I joke, it’ s a tiny little county fair). The boys don’t...

Genghis Grill – 9/365

We’re still on “stay-cation” this week so we did lunch and a movie with friends, Charlie and Christina.  We went to Genghis Grill, a place that opened here last year but we had not yet been to.  It’s one of those places where you “build...

Me and Buddy – 8/365

Buddy and I went on a 2 mile hike at Creasey Mahan Nature Preserve.  It was a nice, overcast day, though humid.  I was hoping to get four miles in, but Buddy, being furry and large and not used to walking more than his yard, puttered out on me at about two miles....
