Some chit chat.

Well. I returned to work this week and it went pretty smooth. Not too busy and I fell right back into the swing of it. I have a very physical job and I sure needed that exercise. I’d been quite lazy for the two weeks I was off.

I’m off to a good start with my reading. Been doing a lot of it and so far I’ve enjoyed every book. Been reading a lot of mysteries and suspense. That happens once in a while. I start a genre and then read until I need to switch to something else. I am starting to feel a call to return to some horror now. I sure have some good reads waiting.

Other than that, not much new. My son and I have started taking walks together. The sun has been shining and it’s been warm so we have the spring fever thing going on. My dog Quigley wants to go with us but he is old and can’t go far so I usually take him by myself.

Almost forgot. I was out cleaning fallen branches from along my fence line and I heard this loud snort. I looked up and there was a buck standing right on the other side of the fence. He wasn’t scared of me at all. In fact, he snorted and shook his rack at me. LOL I know they are randy right now with the rut in season so I froze and waited for him to move off. I could envision him leaping over the fence and chasing me into the house. LOL

Have a lovely Sunday.

I hope you all had a safe and Happy New Year! I spent mine at home enjoying some movies, shows and great books. The weather has been warm and the sun finally came out after over a month of rainy and gloomy skies. What a bright beginning to a brand new year!

I usually make it a point to get in the pool New Years day. I was just getting over a cold so all I did was dip my toe in. It counts, right? LOL

Not much else to report so I’m keeping this short.

Have a lovely Sunday.

Christmas came and went so fast. I had to change my plans as I ended up catching one hell of a cold. Stayed home as I didn’t want to give it to my family. I swear it happens every Christmas. At least this is the third in a row where I got sick. I’m thinking next year I’ll isolate myself the week before so I don’t catch anything. I still enjoyed the day. Spent it watching shows and movies with my son. I hope to try to get together with family in January. I have a brother coming down and we all want to get together.

One of the shows I watched was You. Have you seen it? I watched it all in one day. Very psychologically twisted. I also watched Tidelands. Not sure how I feel about it. Didn’t get interesting til the last couple of episodes. And I binged Schitt’s Creek. LOL What can I say. It’s too much fun. And then I watched Avengers: Infinity War. So fun, so shocking and so sad. I almost couldn’t watch the ending.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and wishing you a Happy New Year!

Christmas is upon us and all is ready at my house. I’m off of work for the holidays and plan to spend it doing those things I love. Spending time with family, eating yummy food, reading a bunch of books and watching the telly.

I’ve become hooked on the show, Lucifer. Cracks me up. Such a smexy devil is he. And I watched Bird Box. Holy cow! Have you seen it yet. Such a fabulous cast. My son and I watched it in the dark with the surround sound cranked up. By the end of the movie we were standing up. So intense we couldn’t watch it sitting down. Congrats to Josh Malerman and Netflix!

So, I’m keeping it short. I hope you all have a lovely holiday and Santa brings you some goodies.

Merry Christmas!

It was another crazy week with the weather. Luckily I had a bunch of great reads to burn up the hours. And I finally watched Meg. It was fun. Better than I expected from some of the reviews I’d read. Well worth the many years I waited for it.

I’ve also been busy blogging ahead. I have 10 days off for Christmas and have a collection of movies and a large stack of books to enjoy. It’s my present to myself!

And I’m writing a lot of reviews to share at the beginning of the year. I’m struggling to decide which will be my first review for 2019. I have so many great ones to choose from. I think I have it narrowed down to five contenders. I’m going to do a post so you can help me choose which one. It will be going up next week.

Have a fabulous  Sunday and brand new week!

I swear the weather pattern here is on repeat. It got super cold mid week and then Saturday it turned warm and rained like crazy. Then it’s supposed to turn cold again beginning of next week. It keeps doing this. I guess I shouldn’t complain. I get those warm breaks even if I can’t go outside and do much with all the rain.

My life is on repeat too. LOL Working a lot, reading some good books and watching some movies and shows. I plan to watch Meg tonight. Been waiting a long time to see it. The reviews are a mixed bag but I’m going into it with no expectations except a giant shark! LOL

Have a fabulous  Sunday and brand new week!

I hope ya’ll had a lovely Thanksgiving. I spent mine at home with my son, watching movies and reading and playing games. It’s a five day weekend for me and I’ve been loving it. Even started doing some Christmas decorating. Today is sunny and 70s so I hope to get started on the front of the house while it’s beautiful out. The decorations always look a bit odd to me without snow but I’ll take the warmer climate here any day! LOL

I thought it was time to update you on my green friends. Here’s the seed ball on one of my Sega Palms.  You can’t really tell it’s size but it’s big. About two feet around.

Here’s a closer look. You can see the bright orange seeds.

A closer look again. The ball looks almost prehistoric. And when you touch the feathery looking fronds, they are so soft.

As they continue to grow the fronds will open and reveal hundreds of the orange seeds. I hope to have better luck when harvesting them. Last year I did it wrong and didn’t get many to grow. I’ll share the process once I get started, probably late in January.

And here’s Flora. Such a trooper. Still growing even though some temps have dipped down to almost freezing. As long as no ice stays on her leaves, she’ll keep growing.  I wish you could see her. You’d appreciate how huge and beautiful she is. To give you an idea, this is only a corner of my house behind her. There’s a cobblestone walkway behind her but she’s gotten so big you can’t find it now. LOL

You can make out the banana trees and they go way above the rooftop and the elephant ears you see behind her have leaves about three feet in size.

The Farmer’s Almanac says we are going to have super cold temps late in the winter. I’m hoping they’re wrong!

Have a fabulous  Sunday and brand new week!

What a week! It rained. The wind blew. It got freezing cold. For the first time I had to turn on the furnace. It’s off again now as the sun has come out and it’s supposed to be beautiful and in the 70s all next week. With Thanksgiving and Friday off of work, I’ll have a short week and plan to get back to sprucing up the yard. I also got out the Christmas decorations and will be doing that next weekend too.

On a quick note. My internet provider was down for a few days and I couldn’t get around to visit ya’ll like I wanted. Sorry about that. I’m working my way through emails and such to try and catch up on posts I’ve missed.

Have a fabulous  Sunday and brand new week!

Whoa! The weather took a turn for the chilly this weekend. I went to bed to howling winds Friday night. Woke up to more wind and cold temps. The sun is out but the north winds catch my breath. And it’s supposed to get even colder next week. Even down into the 30s one night. Not liking that. And I guess swimming is out of the question this weekend. LOL

On a brighter note. I’ve been reading a bunch of cozies and having all kinds of fun. Of course, I have also been reading some scary books.

And my son and I just are watching Stranger Things. We went back and started at the beginning and plan to watch two episodes a night to catch up on all episodes. I forgot how scary some of it was. Have you watched it? What do you think?

Have a fabulous  Sunday and brand new week!
