Photos of the Week: March 5 2022

 I am fairly relieved to have photos for all the prompts this week as I didn't take many photos at all this week!  


– Window View – Quarterly-- Taken from the closet window.




– Topped off-- I topped off our bird feeder and 2 seconds later a bird landed to begin eating.




– On time-- Despite stopping to get my car washed, I was still on time to pick up Alec.




– Starts with P-- The Pink blossoms of my cactus are loving the bright sunlight this week. 



– Your Choice- A not so typical morning where I'm blogging and both boys are doing school work at the table.

      Of course the car was immediately all dirtied up by stuff on the road but it felt great to have a clean car for a few moments.

      LOL. It does look out on our driveway and our shed too but I took a more creative side view.

      Thank you! I keep joking they are eating me out of house and home this winter as our feeder is empty every 2 days.

      It really is; we have spent so many years gathered round this kitchen table doing our schoolwork.

      For some reason this one just keeps right on blooming! My other two don't have any at all.

      Yes, I love that bright pink. My sister bought it for me several years ago and it always makes me smile to see it in bloom.

      Thanks! Only our birdfeeder was completely empty without a single seed left by the time I remembered to top it off.

    I love your bird feeder shot. I need to add some bird feeders near windows. Just have to make sure their 'squirrel proof.'

      Yes, we have had a few squirrels try to reach ours; they can't but it's fun to watch them try!

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mainly through

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my boys were youn

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Image
Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing. Meet this month's co-hosts! Across the Blvd | Purple Hues & Me This Autoimmune Life | Our Unschooling Journey Domestic Deadline | Sew Crafty Crochet Stone Cottage Adventures | Sum of Their Stories | Two Chicks & a Mom I bought the candy cane wreath base and a few rolls of mesh (not knowing how many I'd need I bought waaay to many; I only ended up using one white roll and one red roll. Using some chenille stems I already had on hand I attached the mesh to the wreath base trying to alternate the white
