Summer (Garden) Dreamin’
We had a simply gorgeous day here in Northern California. After Pops and I took our baby Bubbaloo for his morning walk, I spent some much needed time working in the yard. When I say “much needed”, I don’t mean that the yard necessarily needed work but more that I needed the time out there. […] Read more…

Alaska
Should we? Shouldn’t we? Should we? Shouldn’t we? This is the ongoing conversation Pops and I have been having for about 2 weeks now. The question “Go on an Alaskan Cruise?” Today, Pop’s answered that question when he called me to tell me he booked our trip for the end of July. We’re going on […] Read more…
Harley Bubba
Of course, we couldn’t go on vacation and return with nothing for our precious bulldog, so, here’s what Bubba-loo received: His very own, stylish, Harley sweatshirt (with hood). He paraded his “beefcake” look all around our town this morning – to a lot of positive reviews. He was very pleased with himself after his “fashion […] Read more…

You know you’re in Texas when….
You know you’re in Texas when chocolate is combined with Bacon: Day 2 in Texas started with a java, a bit of Twitter and then a lovely pedicure and manicure…trust me, though it’s winter my tootsies needed it! Sorry, you probably didn’t really want to see a photo of my feet, but today, there wasn’t […] Read more…
Texas Visit – Day 1
Day 1 has been very relaxing so far. Happy to say, Pop’s mom, Mimi (yes, our youngest daughter is named after her) is doing well at 90 years of age. She’s a real Southern lady and still makes it to the beauty parlor every week to have her hair and nails done. She also always […] Read more…
Off to Texas
and this photo epitomizes how I feel: although he hasn’t been packing and going through his inbox one last time and checking/replying to messages and making lists for Mimi (dog and house sitter extraordinaire). Nope truly he’s been doing nothing this morning, but snoring under the covers on the bed…lazy boy…you’d think he’d at least […] Read more…
Packing List
I do this every time we travel…stress about forgetting something. We’re only gone for 5 days. Still there are some things that I’m simply lost without. I mean really, you don’t want to be around me if I don’t have these things. Somehow, Pops can travel pretty much hands free and be calm and not […] Read more…

Instead, I’m just going to ramble…and through this rambling maybe […] Read more…

Saturday Morning Calm Inspiration
I send happy weekend wishes out to the world as I sit here on this chilly (40 degree) Saturday morning listening to the sounds of my oldest Grandson Hunter and my hubby Pops as they read books, put together puzzles and make up games in the living room. They’re having their “boy” fun time and […] Read more…
