I hope all is going well, we are enjoying a lazy long weekend after another busy week. Miko is a fan of lazy weekends, he is very spoiled with us being home more. I have been trying to be healthier at home, I need to after the roller coaster of 2020. But also struggling a […]
Starting 2021 for the List
2021, still feels strange typing that. It’s been an interesting week here, another busy short week at work and quiet at home trying to busy ourselves with little projects we’ve been meaning to get to. Ron took apart the dishwasher yesterday since it was misbehaving and found a chunk of glass blocking the drainage that […]
Quiet Holidays for the List
How are you? Hanging in there I hope. It’s official here, Christmas will just be us, no family gatherings with cases still out of control. We are trying to make the best of the situation and focusing on what we have to be thankful for. I know Miko will be thankful to have us at […]
Holiday Spirit for the List
How are you? Staying safe while getting ready for the holidays I hope. Interesting times here, well this entire year really and cases are going crazy in this state again and ugly fights over locking down again due to it. Meanwhile we’re just trying to lay low, make the most of staying home, and get […]
Thanksgiving Weekend for the List
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! It’s been a quiet and relaxing long weekend here where Miko has been a sweet cuddly buddy and we got to enjoy our new propane backyard fire bowl for camping and winter outdoor gatherings. We had a small Thanksgiving gathering at my sister’s with limited time indoors while […]
Lots of Colors for the List
Still wrapping my head around Thanksgiving being less than a week away, this year has both flown by and felt like it’s actually been 5 years long at the same time. That can’t be healthy. But hanging with a sweet work from home buddy who loves his soft blanket and being near my desk is. […]
VCC Votes and Great Eats
What a week, right? I’ll leave it at that and note that Miko has been all sorts of cute this week being a sweet cuddle buddy when working from home, sharing weekend breakfast cereal with me, enjoying his dog friendly plates with us at dinner, and loving that it’s finally cold enough to use the […]
Happy World Vegan Day for the List
Halloween is over, time to break out the Christmas playlists! Seriously, I probably will be listening to them this week, not ashamed. And what a strange Halloween! Finally we get a year with it on a Saturday night and fall back for an extra hour of partying … but it’s during a pandemic. 2020 just […]
Fun Weekend for the List
I’m a little sad to end this fun weekend, but it was such a wonderful weekend and pretty good, but busy, week. I did try to get more creative with eats this week starting with a delicious beans and rice dish Ron made for us one night, the leftovers were great re-heated in acorn squash, […]
Bad Air Again for the List
It’s smokey here again with the latest wildfires in the area which has been a bit of a bummer, I had nice dinner plans for us last night for patio dining that we canceled because the air quality was not healthy. Things are improving today thankfully and I was able to take Miko for a […]
