Sunday Happy

IMG_0964What a week. Was it summer where you  are this week as well? I mean jeez, talk about one extreme to another. Oh well, at least the world has turned green, the winter stuff is completely out of sight and I found the box that contained all of my shorts and summery clothes (pants and long sleeves in 90 degrees is just gross)  And honestly, it's been great. In between work, chores and just plan old being busy, we have manage to get a few bike rides and long walks in. Plus all the veggie starts are doing great, the flowers are coming up everywhere and life just has a little bit more of a relaxed feeling. So what if my allergies are turning my face into big red puff or that the past few night have been so hot that the act of sitting has caused me to break a sweat. I'll take it.

Oh and I can't forget…. 

Happy Mother's Day ladies!!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

IMG_6635 Holy crappers…2015....HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!  January 1st and people everywhere are making resolutions.... stop doing this or start doing that and blah blah blah.…Like right now, I am watching the news and the main theme of the morning is weight loss. I don't want to hear it, I just wanted to know about the guy who robbed all the Walgreens in the area (I think I might know him) Anyway, I  don't think its a bad thing to want to make a change or two, I just don't  like the all of a sudden pressure and don't want to be smacked in the face with it for the next few weeks or until we start thinking about the next holiday(think its Valentines Day). With all of that being said, yeah, there are a lot of things that I want to do this year, or maybe stop doing, but I am not going to try to change a bunch of things in one fail swoop. Instead I am going to take today(maybe even rest of the week) as a quite day and keep to myself. (trust me..I need it) I will most likely make a little list( I make list all year long)  and try to remember to start keeping track of all my money transactions.(I never do). Little steps.  But to be honest, today I am not trying to accomplish much other than cleaning the bathroom and maybe make a loaf of bread.  

But I will leave you with one little bit of the simplest advice for the new year………Drink water. Or if you already do, maybe drink a little more.

 Lets get pumped about all the awesome coming our way this year…..I'll try to bring some to you!And yeah, I have a salad recipe on the blog tomorrow…. because it's so freaking good, not because I think you need it. 

Be happy and no pressure!
