Did you get any eclipse action? I snapped this crappy shot on my phone through eclipse glasses outside of the office while enjoying a fresh air break from work. Miko was not really impressed with it, he just wanted to cuddle after work. Sunday I stepped out for a girl’s lunch with my mom and […]
Simple and Fast for the Weekend List
Wow, another weekend flew by too fast! And Miko was hoping for more walk time this weekend, but enjoyed snooze time in the office with me and hubby and I while watching Ozark and Defenders on Netflix. I did find a new kitchen gadget to try – the Kuhn Rikon Stay Clean Scrubber as an […]
Fake Grass and Fun Eats for the List
Sunday night already, boo this weekend flew by too fast! But it was also a productive weekend. We had fake grass professionally installed for half of our backyard last week, the half that is closest to the door – easy for the dogs to get to. And on the side I’ve always had problems maintaining […]
Anniversary Eats
We’re trying to enjoy some downtime this week and relax after crazy times at work. Things are still crazy, but not on call with hours of overtime crazy. But we are having fake grass installed in a large chunk of our backyard this week which I’m so excited about! Drought friendly and will always look […]
Simple Eats Inspiration
Leela and I seem to be on the same page this week after a quiet, hot weekend and back to the grind. The heat hits her hard, so she enjoys more rest time. Not Miko, he’s ready for an indoor party with his stinky toy. I gotta wash that again. Eats have been interesting so […]
Sweating It for the Weekend List
Sigh, it’s hot again this weekend. High of 107 degrees yesterday and the pups are feeling it. After our long morning walk before the heat kicked in, they were happy to crash all day in the air conditioning. I pretty much did too after a strange week, I’m still getting back on schedule after camping […]
Getting Serious Heat
I am slogging through this week our heat wave and it’s only Tuesday. My car was reading 112 degrees when I left work yesterday. Fun, right? When we were at Costco Saturday, we found a great deal on a 2-pack of Tekeya 40 oz insulated bottles – less than the retail price of one! And […]
Simple Meal Inspiration
This has been a busy week already and it’s only Tuesday. I haven’t been motivated to get creative in the kitchen yet this week with so much and sticking to keeping things simple and healthy. Like this tofu and cabbage saute with onions and broccoli, seasoned with tamari sauce, fresh grated ginger, and minced garlic. […]
What I’ve Been Eating
It dawned on me that the 4th of July is almost here – whoa! I keep thinking summer is further and it’s pretty much here. I took the pups for a long walk yesterday trying out Leela’s new harness and she crashed for hours after. Must have been a great walk! We had a quiet […]
Long Weekend Eats for the List
It’s been a long and lazy weekend here so far and Miko has been perfecting his relaxing skills crashing on the couch with us. Snuggling in his cozy office bed on chilly mornings. And crashing on his favorite blanket during movie time. We’ve been getting some relax time too between projects and checking off the […]
