It has been a lazy weekend here with my sweet home office buddy enjoying a warm blanket under his space heater. That’s because it’s been cold, windy, and rainy all weekend. Besides going to the gym and running errands, we’ve been spending time indoors eating leftovers, organizing, playing games, and watching movies. And my last […]
Wrapping Up 2018 for the List
2018 was an odd year, something I feel like I been saying too much the last couple of years. There were a lot of ups and down and I’m ready to move onto a fresh year. There were adventures and fun. But also sadness and negativity. I think I’ve learned to deal with that and […]
Christmas Fun
What day of the week is this? Take a few days off work and I’m totally disoriented. That’s fine though, I have been relaxing, catching up on projects, going for a hike today, and just enjoying not being at work. The pups have been enjoying the fireplace a lot the last few days with the […]
Holiday Time
You ready for Christmas? Can’t believe it’s here and my posting schedule is a little off and will be until next year. I am taking time off work until next year and I’m thrilled! No actual plans yet, just some down time to recoup from the holidays, work on projects, and have a little fun. […]
Holiday Spirit for the List
Another weekend whiffed by and whoa, it’s December! 2018 is almost done, that is crazy. We’ve been getting so much rain here lately that things are starting to look green and clear which is such a welcome change after all the smoke. Miko has been happy to snuggle in his blanket and skip the cold […]
Easy and Interesting Meals
I had every intention of having a new recipe ready this week, but that did not happen. Work has been crazy, on call has been crazy, we’re still eating through leftovers, and time has been an issue. Oh well! The fall trees are gorgeous here and we finished our Christmas tree. Both of our chihuahuas […]
Rain and Celebration for the List
It’s been a great few days off for Thanksgiving, so great I’m a little sad about going back to work tomorrow. Oh well, back to the grind. Thanksgiving started with an easy 4-mile run in the chilly wind. I didn’t mind, so great to see clouds and fall lease everywhere after smoke and dryness during […]
Smoky Weekend for the List
As you’ve probably seen, California is on fire again and it’s horrible. I can’t even imagine what the victims of these fires are going through. It’s hard to consider that a fire can move so fast and take out entire cities today, but that’s the reality of climate change and my heart and support goes […]
Simple Finds for a Crazy Week
It’s been an odd week so far, but November seems to be an odd time of year in general for me. The weather is getting cooler, the holidays are getting closer, and it’s cold and dark. I don’t know why, but it seems more chaotic and this week seems to be following that trend. Not […]
Locking into Better Eats for the List
Hello and happy Sunday. I am totally enjoying the extra hour and that it will be slightly lighter when I go to work tomorrow morning. Seriously, getting up for work in the cold and dark has been extra hard the last few weeks for some reason. Maybe I need to try one of those sunlight […]
