Papaw and his Boy

Love this picture...

It is so obvious that they love spending time together...

Namaste.

Finding some things in the yard...

Amazing how well a 19-month old can find those colored plastic things in the yard.

Even more amazed that when he realized that there was candy inside, he quickly dumped it out and took off with a pale of empty eggs.

Namaste.

Pseudo Easter Baskets

It's that time of the year again when the Easter Bunny fills the Easter Baskets (or pseudo Easter Baskets).

The pseudo baskets were items that could be used in a new home with a new family (notice: nothing breakable).  

It was a great Easter!  It was the first time in six years that everyone got an Easter Basket - even me:

Namaste.

Traveling Memories

I have been traveling a lot lately.
Some for pleasure, but mostly for work.

The one thing that is great for the memories, but not so great for the waistline is the food...
I have had some pretty great dishes lately.

In New Orleans, I found my new favorite fish - Black Drum Fish:

In West Virginia, a pretty great Gouda Chicken Pizza (and I don't like Gouda cheese):

In Toronto, the most amazing Salmon that I have ever tasted before:

I have been doing better about getting my 10K steps daily when I am traveling.

I know that I did offset the food in West Virginia and Toronto... Can't remember New Orleans though.  :)

Namaste.

Love Being Nana

I truly love being Nana.
It has been one of the best experiences in the last 19 months.

I love to announce that I have become Nana again.
Today, MaBell gave me my second amazing grandson.

I think I can forget that it happened while I was visiting the clouds above.
Nope - didn't make it to the hospital in time for either of my grandsons.


Namaste.

Searching

I very rarely get on my home laptop anymore.
I can do so much from my smartphone, that I only really have a need when I am working on our bills.

I have so many things that I think - I want to write about that...
But blogger no longer likes my browser at work and I really don't like the blogger app.

So, that leaves long periods of time when I don't post anything.
And I really don't like that.

Not really sure how to fix...
But I am searching to figure it out!

Namaste.

Around Toronto

I had a few hours to walk around Toronto between ending one event and heading into another town for another event...
And I needed some steps to get to 10K (okay, so I needed a lot of steps!)...

There were two sushi restaurants that caught my attention...

Avocado Sushi?

Kaizen Sushi?

And got added to the "Things That Make Me Go Hmmmmmm..." list in my head.

Namaste.

Yummy Liquid...

I've been traveling a lot recently for work.
The one thing that I love is the "citrus water" that Marriotts have in the lobby.

On one particular trip, I found three different waters:
 - Berry Water
 - Citrus Water
 - Cucumber Water

I had my fair share of the Berry and Citrus.
Okay, maybe more than my fair share!

If only I could figure out how to make it like this at home...

Namaste.

Who ticked off Mother Nature?

I was already having a pissy day as my alarm clock started with a "3" when it started buzzing...
I pulled into work when the clock started with a "4"...
Yeah, still not a great day.

And I was still not enjoying the snow on the ground...
In April...

Never thought I'd be on a plane going through a deicer in April.

Namaste.

Roaming through another airport

Was roaming through another airport - Detroit this time...
Always enjoy the color show in the tunnel - expecially the bright ones.

And then I spotted something from a distance.

Yes - Caribou Coffee!

Got to visit an old friend and enjoy some Caribou...

Namaste.
