Hello Monday ~ October 19, 2026

Hey friends. My weekend was one of those where I was holding the good and the hard things at the same time. I will focus on the good for this post!

After work Friday morning, I went to a pumpkin patch with my sister and 6 of the greats. The weather was delightful, as it was all weekend.

Saturday morning, one of my great nieces had her 1 year old party and it was a sweet time.

That afternoon, I walked to a local fall fest, which was just a 1 1/2 miles from my home. They had live music, rides and booths there.

I bought some incredible whipped cinnamon honey that was divine on sourdough bread!

I spent the afternoon watching all the football games/upsets. I had the TV on multi-view, mainly watching the Ole Miss game, Georgia/Auburn, and the UT/Alabama game. I was so glad UT won!

Sunday was my daughter's 22nd birthday! I spent some time being the birthday fairy and decorating a wee bit. I made breakfast and it was so good to see her again on her birthday after missing a few years while she was at college.

I went to church then met up with a friend who I use to work with for coffee because it was her birthday too! Afterwards, I met Brook for some birthday shopping. Look at these earrings....original price $24/sale price $24, ha, ha ha!

Thanks for reading and enjoy the start to a new week!

A Day In The Life ~ November 13, 2025

Good morning! I am joining up with Joyce today to document a day in the life. I chose my birthday, Tuesday, 11/11!

I have been off work this week and woke up to this view of my kitchen. Pretty calm, right? Ha!

I made me a cup of hot chocolate...in my disposable cup.

Had a protein bar for breakfast

Turned my heat up because it was 62 in the house when I woke up!

I listened to Huey Lewis most of the day!

This sweet friend stopped by to bring me a drink and a cookie.

It was 11:11 on 11/11!

I met my parents for an early lunch and had breakfast food. I had sourdough toast, egg omelette with onions, turkey sausage and avocado with salsa on top and fruit. It was delicious!

I took a load of stuff I had packed from my old house to the new rental house.

My sweet Isabella sent me flowers!

My co-worker gave me Pretzel Twists from Trader Joe's. I stopped by Starbucks to get my free treat for my birthday. I opted for egg bites and actually had them Wednesday morning for breakfast since I knew that was moving day.

I walked next door to get my hair cut in the afternoon. I am so thankful for my neighbors!

I had a great face time that morning with Brook and then some facetime calls with some greats in the evening. This sweet boy sang to me and I was grateful as he was the only one to sing to me and he did it unprompted :)

Wearing my 11:11 bracelet

That evening, I went to a friend's house and her son made some amazing brisket!

There was a good spread of appetizers and desserts.

Love these people!

Love my Jenn and love when she meets more of my friends!

A few friends had left by the time this picture was taken, but these are all friends I either go to church with or had at one point.

I had lots of phone calls and texts from friends and then of course the facebook / instagram messages and sweet messages from you all!

Thank you so much for the birthday love! Outside of one phone call with some not great news about my closing, it was a great day. I always call this day my Happy New Year as I am beginning a new year of life. I am ready!!!
