I really liked what I did last year, but who wants a repeat, right? Last year, we wrote about things we “can” or “may” do in the month of May. This go round, we’re back to everyone’s favorite! Would you rathers! I tried really hard to come up with my own, but I had to …
10 on the 10th… May was one of those months that flew pretty quickly. Nigel had a couple of tests, and we’re now waiting for his appointment with the surgeon. He has been using a walker everywhere and is supposed to stay off of his feet as much as possible. That’s almost impossible with him. …
June is off to a beautiful start. We have had the most gorgeous weather though storms are forecast for the next day or so. I also love thunderstorms so all is well. My plants are doing well, though one of my salvias has mites. It’s funny because last year, I had the same problem with …

Well, we’ve got that over with! The Fourth of July, I mean! My poor Jack is scared silly by the fireworks, and people here love to shoot off those things. I’m pretty sure many of them were actually illegal in our state, but you know how that is! But, in happier news, July 8th was …
10 on the 10th! You know how some months just seem to sprint by and others take the scenic view? Well, June definitely took the scenic view! But, July 10th will be here soon. This month, I’m using the “Would You Rather” format. I think it’s a fun way to learn about people. I was …
