Monday Maisieness – June 20, 2022 Edition

I’ve been posting small updates on Maisie and her kennel cough here for a week, since she first started showing the telltale signs. But since things are changing it is time for a longer update. First, yes, Maisie is going to the vet. I’ve been on the phone with them last week and today. I’m …

Mindful Monday – June 13, 2022 Edition: DeGoogling

Getting google out of my life is an ongoing effort that I’ve been working on for several years. Though anyone who uses the internet may never be totally free of its tentacles when I have a choice, I choose not-google. As I read a recent post by my friend Randal I was inspired and challenged …

Thursday Thoughts (June 9, 2022 Edition) on Friday

Well I guess it would appear I sorta skipped out yesterday! I guess I did…never finished out the day here with my usual updates or even a post! But it was an eventful day. I don’t remember the earlier part of the day, I do know that I ate an early supper because we were …

Saturday Sundries – June 4, 2022 Edition

A new occasional post for those weeks when, like this one, I have some bits and pieces to share that didn’t fit in anywhere during the week. This is my new yard ornament I bought in Indiana but didn’t have any photos of before. Pete mounted it on the stump where our driveway meets the …

VIDEO – Happy Birthday, Lyra! June 2, 2022 – Vlog #2102 (+Costco Receipt Haul!)

I only took a few photos for this vlog, but forgot to add them on to the end. So they will be shared below the video. ALSO Pete told me what the unidentified items were on the receipt; he’d put a couple of things in the buggy that I didn’t see. One of them was …

Final Indiana Trip Post – Summary/Costs

This post will, as promised, cover the costs of my mini-vaca with my sister, and I will also provide a list of links to my other posts about it. The biggest expenses were, of course, gas and lodging. I spent $160 on gas, total, but not all of it was used for the actual trip. …

VIDEO – May 26, 2022 Indiana Thrift Hauls

Something messed up and part of this video was lost, so you won’t see everything I bought. But I shared what I have, anyway. I will share my favorite find in a future vlog, as it wasn’t easily accessible when I recorded this; it will look better once Pete gets it settled in its new …
