How are you? We are here and it’s raining! Finally getting some much needed rain which Miko is not happy about and pouts about backyard trips, forget walks in the rain! Since it’s supposed to rain all day, it’s a great excuse to stay home and catch up on work. Trying to decide if I […]
Sad News for the List
We have sad news this week, our sweet Leela passed away. And it has been sad and strange without her since. It was not a surprise, we’ve known it was coming for a long time now, but it was still painful and tough with everything going on. I really miss our routine of caring for […]
Back from a Busy Week for the List
It was a crazy week last week, so busy at work I just wanted to sit and do nothing when I got home I was feeling so drained. Still adjusting to management and there is a lot of transition on our team now with a growing workload. I really love the new challenges, but they […]
Christmas Ready for the List
Crazy that Christmas is a couple of days away! Ready? I think I am. Shopping is mostly done, food is mostly planned, and I am looking forward to a few days off work. This has been a busy week with work and holiday parties, but eats at home have not been that crazy with a […]
Spicy Adventure for the List
Wow, Saturday already? The busy week flew by as I adjust to new job responsibilities and mapping out goals as a manager. I’ve been making sure to get Miko out for morning walks before work since it could be too cold and wet for those soon and the weather seems to be moving towards fall […]
Simple and Healthy
It has been hot here with triple digit heat the last few days. So the pups have been kept inside during the worst of the heat and Miko is not pleased with that. And it’s been a busy week for me with multiple appointments today, running around in the heat has been exhausting. Sweet hubby […]
Celebrating Summer for the List
Summer has arrived here this weekend with temps in the 80s and 90s and Miko has been a happy camper with long walks and snuggle, lazy time after. For Memorial Day, we stopped at Zest Kitchen for lunch were it was packed! Love seeing such a demand for healthy vegan cuisine. I got the loaded […]
Winter Blues Dressing
It’s been raining just a bit here, pretty much non-stop since Monday and we’re starting to see flooding in Northern California now. Thankfully not by us yet, but poor Miko has been very frustrated with the weather. We got a brief break in the rain this afternoon, hubby tried to get him out for a […]
Embracing Winter for the List
One of my goals for 2019 is to reduce my disposable plastic use and trash in general and have been spending a lot of time on the Zero Waste Subreddit It’s not easy with personal care items and so much food coming in plastic! So it’s been baby steps switching to shampoo bars, trying alternative […]
More Busy Week Eats
It’s been another busy week at work and it’s flying by, so I’m not complaining. Poor Miko is because it has been down pouring rain since last night which means no walks. We’re grateful for the rain and it means more runs at the gym. But between being busy at work and maybe feeling a […]
