♥♥ As I look outside my window ♥♥ 

It looks like another lovely, cooler morning. Hubs will be getting out there to mow as soon as the dew has dried up. 

♥♥ Right now I am ♥♥ 

I am working in the den, on this post while, also, watching Fox and Friends …it is 7:50 am, and I hear Hubs has gotten up and is walking around right above me.  I tried to tiptoe out of the bedroom, trying not to awaken him. I suppose he is determined to get an early start!  Oh, my, Fox is still talking about this Mullet Competition.     Yuck! 

♥♥ Thinking and pondering ♥♥ 

Since this is still my birthday month, ( hee hee) I really didn’t get anything much for my birthday, I found a couple items on Amazon that I am going to  order this week! 
 I have always wanted down pillow inserts for the living room. Last year Amanda bought me a gorgeous  William Morris tapestry style pillow cover from the Stirling Castle gift shop.  I was so excited to use it once we got home!  

I robbed the insert from one of the sunroom pillows that was the same size and have used that ever since.   I want to replace it with a down pillow  filler then you can give it that karate chop look that you see all the decorators on tv do.  Ok, so I sound crazy, but I love that look and  so I am at the doting stage of life. I also saw the same WM pattern on a dining room set, a table runner and placemats set for a ridiculous price of 19.99. So it is also in my wish list! 


♥♥How am I feeling ♥♥ 
Except for a bit of allergy sniffles, I’m feeling fine. Ha, as long as. I’m sitting in my chair, but weakness in my back troubles me when I walk around for about half a day, by lunch time it always feel better and  I can walk around straight and feeling like I should!

♥♥ On the breakfast plate ♥

I have been quite the chicken about trying the nut milks, but being on WW I decided to give Almond milk a try and so I used it in my oatmeal dish with fresh slices of strawberry on top!It  was delicious!

♥♥ On the dinner plate ♥♥

I haven’t decided that far into my day, yet!


♥♥ What I'm wearing ♥♥ 
I am still in my pj’s and robe. 


♥♥ On my reading pile ♥♥

Chapters from Judges, Acts, Jeremiah, Mark. I got The Return  of the Gods  , by Jonathan Cahn from a friend for my birthday, and I hope to start it today while Lynn mows! 

♥♥On my TV this week ♥♥ 
Well, I must   say, last night we finished season 10  of Dr. Martin. A friend loaned the set of videos to us. She had checked it out from the library. It was so good!  So sorry it was probably the last season.  I loved the theme music.  Will definitely miss that! I have been enjoying the Christmas Hallmark movies, there are some I can  watch time and again.  For example I love The Christmas Detour which will play at noon today!

  3. Beautiful nature journal page! And that pillow pattern is so pretty and seems very much your style. One thing I noticed with the alternative milks is that I very much prefer the unsweetened versions but I do like them. I've been enjoying coconut milk in my coffee for a while now (almond milk was making my psoriasis act up so I had to switch). Hope you have a wonderful week!

  4. Love the nature journal. I use oat milk mostly (seems it has more protein in it than almond milk). I like the vanilla ones... I know, I know more sweet but... Have a great week

Farewell

 After  17 years of   blogging  I am  pretty sad to  just fade  out  with  hardly  anyone showing any   farewell,  concern  about my  surger...
