Babies In Our Yard!

We were walking kitties on the deck this morning and our two resident geese presented us with this!!!


It looked as though they wanted to introduce us to our new summer residents! Doesn't Papa Goose look so proud? I know they are messy but when they are tiny...they are so sweet! I gave them every bite of bread we had...Mama Goose was starving!



Happy Saturday!

It's Adventure Day! We Are Going On A Field Trip!

After a strenuous and exhausting two day work week...for Den...he is off today...and as Director Of Our Family Activities...I have planned a jaunt to Wyebrook Farms!
We can hug animals, buy eggs, get veggies and even have lunch! This place is 40 minutes away and we had no clue it even existed! So much for knowing our area! Sigh! This farm even has bike trails and walking paths!













































Finished this...fact paced and fun...loaded with suspense!





Working on this...really good...private school...bullies...revenge...yum!





This real book will step in next...


Amazon Vine yesterday was filled with amazing books...I will share them soon!

Just a teaser...this one...I can't wait to read it...love this cover!



Happy Friday!

Cats And Beds!


I woke up this morning with a cat on my head...or I should say I woke up this morning because I had a cat on my head! Lucy and Roxie Blue are so good about sleeping in their own beds but when Den leaves for work...apparently our bed is fair game. They are so quiet I don't wake up...but this morning I could not breathe...Lucy had worked her way into my arms and Roxie had her entire teeny body across my head...with a paw on Lucy...just trying to get close to her. And because my head was in the middle...Lucy let her...until she didn't any more. There was a minor tussle...and I was the only one who ended up with a tiny battle scar...sigh! They look so sweet here...hmmmm!













I should be doing a million things today...but I don't want to...

I will be making this for dinner...it's from a fave food blog called "Pinch Of Yum!"

I just happen to own almost half of a roasted chicken...and this has chicken and broken no boil pasta noodles in it...and a cheesy creamy sauce...and peas! The only problem I have is that I tossed leftover frozen peas in the same bag as fava beans so I either have to separate them or just use both...hmmmm...I am just excited to use my leftover chicken! I feel actually thrifty!



Reading this in a real book...



Reading this in an ebook...


Trying not to feel guilty about feeling lazy...Den will be home tomorrow after his two day work week and we will either drive to the beach for lunch or see a movie or go to a Farmers' Market. We aren't used to this schedule yet so we either do way too much when he is here which makes me not want to do anything when he is at the office. Minor kinks in our life that we will work out...hmmm...my sister Paula's husband is a dentist who is working one day a week...she says she prays for golf and fishing seasons...lol.


Happy Thursday!

Oh No!

I did nothing yesterday...I had a relaxing manicure...

See!




And...an even more relaxing pedicure!

My toes are green...but I hate it when people show feet selfies...so trust me...my toes are Amazon Amazoff green!

Actually...this color...



Then...we went to lunch...I had a teeny tiny 8 oz. green tea beer...and a turkey burger.

When we got home I started feeling...hmmm...not good...hot...cold...dizzyish...icky. And all I could think about was that turkey burger! Food allergy? Food poisoning? I have that weird personality that makes me know I will not eat that turkey burger ever again...ever ever ever!

I am fine today but I don't feel like doing much of anything...and I did not read one word yesterday...and I don't want to sit in a theatre today. So...today will be a quiet day...very quiet.

Reading this...


I did nothing yesterday afternoon...I did not read my believed blogs nor did I read emails...I sort of slept...into the early evening...Lucy and Roxie were close by my side...Tonks are very comforting kitties! Wherever I go...these two are sure to follow!




Happy Tuesday!

I'm Baaaaack! Life Changes!

I think I like taking the weekend off...I still read the blogs I love to read but I don't need to worry about mine! I think this will be my summer routine. This time of year we are busy spring cleaning and mulching and working outside and deck sitting with the kitties as much as we can. We are planting and weeding and prepping pots and beds for summer. Den...well...my sweet Den...has decided to end his career at DuPont. He has formed his own company and is now working 50% of the time...he still does what he has always done but with more time off...that's why we have been able to hit movies at noon and actually be relaxed and play more. I was worried about losing my time alone but so far...this has been perfection. He has always had a study...so when he works at home he is still removed from me and the girls...and he will still travel and go to his office two or three days a week. I don't mean to go on and on about this but it's probably a really good transition for him...he is at home today...so last night no one had Sunday blues...we watched Amazing Race and The Good Wife and played with the girls...and...like today...he brought me coffee and peanut butter cinnamon toast in bed. I have gained a Carson...from Downton Abbey!

Tomorrow we are going to see the Johnny Depp's movie and then Den will go to DuPont for Wednesday and Thursday...so far...I love our new life!

Books...finished this...loved it...Victorian England...a gay poet...and Vampires...oh my...so good!




No clue at all what I will read next...maybe one of these?














Off for a relaxing mani/pedi!

Happy Monday!
