Weekend Watching

The snow covered roads arrived last Friday and I watched myself drive like a little old lady to the park on the first snowy day of the season. Ever since I did a donut down our narrow, tree lined driveway a few winters ago, it always takes a few outings in the Jeep to adjust…

The leaves and attitude were flying this week, with Gabby leading the way. She appeared to not appreciate the fact that the driveway and yard had disappeared under a layer of leaves while I had been busy watching more horror movies. I thought I could blame the autumn attitude this week on too much…

Weekend Watching

I think we have set a record this year with the least amount of movies we have seen at the theater and while I should have finally been at the movie theater watching the new Halloween movie, instead I was at home watching a horror movie marathon recommended by my niece who is an expert…

In the film Tea With The Dames the question of what advice would you give to your younger self was posed to Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Joan Plowright and Eileen Atkins and I loved their responses. I never have a profound response to those life questions, but after a day of hanging out with the skeletons, I…

Weekend Watching

I had planned on being up early to watch the sunrise, but I stayed up late the night before watching some of the new/old fall tv previews (Murphy Brown, New Amsterdam, A Million Little Things, Manifest, Last Man Standing). I thought I would be out kayaking at some point to see if the turtles were…

I thought I would try the flower petal game and then realized when you’re middle-aged, what question do you replace “He loves me..he loves me not” with. Let’s just say…

During times of stress and worry it’s very important to remember to not actually pull your hair…

As we wrap up the end of August and, to many, the end of summer, I was hoping this week’s images would reflect a great end of summer vibe. You might have read about Gabby complaining about the weather quite often this summer while I’ve tried to remind her about the calm and peaceful nature of…

After a month of just horrible humidity and my dew point obsession reaching its limit when it hit 70, we finally had a beautiful day that was the cat’s meow (the dew point was 47!!). The wonderful cool breeze made me want to hitch a ride directly to fall and enjoying college football games and…
