So, where have I been for the past 9 months?

Nowhere.

Busy.

All kinds of things.

So - what's been going on with me?

After we got back from our anniversary weekend we got busy. I just kind of lost track of doing my blogs - all my blogs. I think loosing so many of my Friday's off made it more difficult to fit blogging into my life, so I stopped for awhile. I am going to try and write more regularly again.
I have been writing in my paper journal, every day.
Hmmmm, well, we have a new puppy, Rowdy, who we got in December. He was sick at first, so that was worrisome.
So far this year we have both been sick. It's been not a great start to the year. A loss of a family friend hit everyone pretty hard, as he was a young man with a baby who was truly in the wrong place at the wrong time. (He was hit by the trailer of an out-of-control truck, on the wrong side of the road.)

TS and I are working on our house this year, if we can ever get the energy to start working on projects.

Here are a few of the projects we have for this year;
Fixing the water leak outside. It's near the shut-off. It involves digging a deep hole in mud. Doesn't that sound fun?
New flooring in the utility room and master bathroom.
Getting rid of the antique piano and exercise bike. Hauling to the dump.
Hanging the picture I got from Toni last July. One got hung right away, the other one needs different matting to work, and it hasn't happened yet.
Fixing the leak on the roof.
De-junking the house. I still have the master bedroom, Living Room, dining room, Kitchen, rec room, Ken's and my rooms and the Utility room left.
New Back door. Which means new dog door, too.
New Front door.
Fencing the yard. Now there is a project.
Under the counter box for meds, and shelf for electronic device charging.
Shelves for the bedroom. To replace the ones with Magical chew marks on the corners.
8 fake plants in the master bath. Because they don't ruin the shelves like real ones do.
Oak trim around walls.
Oak trim around windows.
Oak trim around doors.
Paint the ceilings.

The other projects - the sliding door that leads to a new porch by the hot tub, new kitchen cabinets, and new floors in the back bedrooms, can wait awhile. But who knows, maybe we will get a burst of energy, and it will all be good......

Hopefully I will get back to my weekly posting soon. I enjoyed it.
