A Little Surprise | My Sunday Snapshot

A little surprise

My Sunday Snapshot #14

Hi, welcome to My Sunday Snapshot 14! I had a little surprise waiting for me when I was cleaning the pool skimmer. Usually the skimmer is filled with leaves and a few small bugs. Well, this time a baby turtle!

When I first saw this turtle I wondered if it was a snapping turtle. Snapping turtles are not a wanted turtle for our fishing ponds. So I text a picture to Kevin and he was the one who identified my little surprise turtle.

An Apple a Day

My Sunday Snapshot 13

Hi, welcome to My Sunday Snapshot 13! It was a beautiful day. During my lunch break I took a stroll outside. I had seen the cows lined up at the fence row, grabbed an apple to see if I could get one to take it from my hand.

As I got closer to them, the cows backed away from the fence. Do you recognize the brown/red cow? This is the one that first came up to me in the post from Calves Part 2 Notice how much bigger he is?.

He was interested. I just couldn’t get him to take it.

Time | My Sunday Snapshot #12

Hi, welcome to My Sunday Snapshot 12!

It’s the time of year we are getting our pool and patio cleaned up from the winter’s weather conditions. The image above reflects the way time affected our copper plates. Our pool is a CL Free system. Copper is used in place of chlorine bleach. I am so eager for the spring preparations to a wonderful relaxing area at home!

Have a wonderful week!

March | One Line a Day

March One Line a Day

Hi, I am so ready for spring. During the cold months, I fall victim to the blues. Working from home has presented a new level to the blues. The thought of requesting a higher dose of meds does not sound appealing to me. After giving this some thought, I want to work on habits.

Working at home, I have created some bad habits. The biggest bad habit I have gotten into, staying in my pajamas all day, every day through the week. Weekends I do leave the house, regular clothes and makeup are a must. To start my new positive habits, I will use a journal. My Weight Watchers teacher inspired me with hers. Planning to incorporate her style with a monthly post of one line a day. And, this will knock off my #58 on my 101 in 1001 list!

March got off to a late start. Beginning with Saturday, March 9, 2024.

09. My WW instructor’s suggestion of a journal style book already has brightened my day. The journal supplies I purchased are shown in the post feature image above.

10. Amazing animals that touched my heart.

11. Monday, a typical day of working remote. After work watching Wheel of Fortune with Kevin, I keep telling him he should try out. He always figures out the puzzle.

12. This was a fun day. I took personal time from work and had to run an errand for my son. Which took me to Topeka, our state capitol. The grand girls were on spring break and they went with me.

13. Thankful for indoor plumbing, especially at nighttime.

14. Each day my feet touch the floor is a good day. I choose to be positive.

15. Had a fun movie night with Adam. We had Mac and Cheese with little smokies and watched the movie, Damsel on Netflix.

16. First went to my WW meeting. After, went to Best Buy. I had purchased the Zagg screen protector and paid the fee for Geek Squad to apply the protector. Both are a bit pricey when you think of it as a one time purchase. However, I had dropped my phone and the protector cracked. Well, Best Buy will exchange the broken protector with new and even apply again at no charge. This is the second time I needed to have a replacement.

17. Happy St. Patrick’s Day. The shamrock green is not a color in my wardrobe. However, I love to accessorize!

This is how I wore my green today!

18. My new favorite Weight Watchers friendly dessert is frozen bananas.

19. Spent a fun evening with Adam. Our weekly movie and dinner night. This week the movie pick was Unthinkable. Definitely not family friendly. Rather a dark movie. If you have seen it, would be interested in knowing what you thought of it.

20. Not too much to say, regular work day and did a virtual walk with my friend, Linda. We meet in the evenings at 7:30 pm and FaceTime while we walk on our treadmills.

21. Cut up several bunches of bananas to freeze.

From bunches to freezer!

22. It’s Friday, the best part of the weekend. The beginning!

23. The local grocery store has a wonderful deli. The food is good and very reasonably priced. Kevin and I each got a chicken dinner. Kevin got the white and dark meal and I ordered the 2 piece tender meal. Our total was 15 and some change.

24. Had breakfast with Kevin, Erika, Shaune and the grand girls. The grand girls wanted to come back to the house and see the calves!

Twins!

25. Linda was not able to walk this evening, so I ate some cookies instead!

26. Drank 3 cups of hot chocolate. It’s still cold in Kansas. Walked with Linda tonight. Needed to walk off the hot chocolate and cookies!

27. A rollercoaster ride with my website disaster. Oh my, I was working on my website (this one) just Monday evening. All was fine when I went to sleep for the night. The next day I went to update a post and my site was gone. Vanished. I panicked. Today all seems to be back and working. Thank goodness! If you were wondering- I did pay the bill……. This was not the issue. I had to call the tech department and they were able to fix.

28. Had movie night with Adam. We had ham and cheese quesadillas. He chose the movie, Blood & Gold. This is not a family friendly movie. I think Adam will not be selecting next week’s movie night movie!

29. Sometimes I just like drinking my water from a glass jar instead of my insulated cup.

strawberry infused water
Absolutely the best way to drink water!

30. Kevin wanted to go shopping. This is a rare experience! Actually, our dear neighbor is not in the best health. Kevin wanted to shop for a jacket.

Kevin’s shopping spree!

31. Happy Easter.

Peace be with you!
