Sad day in our country yesterday… Happy day in my little town. My creature – the human – is officially a teenager. Despite the insanity going on around us we were able to make it a good quarantine birthday thanks to my husband’s amazing family and a few of my sisters from other misters. OurContinue reading “Day 64 | The Covid Chronicles”

Day 44 | The Covid Chronicles
The almost perfect day started with an outing – gasp! – yes… an outing. I have to say it was the coolest outing I have had in months… There is a little plant nursery down in Homestead that mainly has shrubs and ornamentals, from what we observed and based on our limited plant knowledge, thatContinue reading “Day 44 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 35 | The Covid Chronicles
Day 1 of kitchen cabinets project and my husband has not kicked me out of the house yet. That’s a good sign considering the house smelled of vinegar and the doors and drawers are without knobs. I expect the situation will get precarious once the sanding begins… not sure what I got myself into, butContinue reading “Day 35 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 34 | The Covid Chronicles
Amazed at the fact that it has been this long and my son and I haven’t killed each other yet. I have to say, I have very much enjoyed hanging out with him this month. Some very much needed time for us. Today a new member of the tribe entered our stratosphere for about aContinue reading “Day 34 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 33 | The Covid Chronicles
The Covid Crazy continues with a redo of our back garden and some succulent baby-making, including countless trips up and down a ladder to trim our clusias. OMG! I am so sore from yesterday I am worried about tomorrow – the second day is always worse. It feels good to accomplish as much as weContinue reading “Day 33 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 15 | The Covid Chronicles
It has been a stand-off kind of day. Ding-dong lost his Xbox yesterday [for all of today] and when he realized I was sticking to my guns had a meltdown. A full blown, “go get a job, you suck, you can’t even work at [insert anything here],” all because I told him we had aContinue reading “Day 15 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 16 | The Covid Chronicles
He almost lost a patch of hair yesterday for mouthing off, and this morning started with a full on mini-war when he was instructed to leave the office door open while he did his schooling for the day. The Xbox is gone for the week, and my next effort will be figuring out a wayContinue reading “Day 16 | The Covid Chronicles”
Day 14 | The Covid Chronicles
These handsome devils stole the show today. It was a lovely Sunday, with all parties involved doing our best to make the best of it. #blessed #stayinghome #makingthebestofit
Day 8 | The Covid Chronicles
Seems that with the exception of a grocery store run or dog walk this is what we are doing these days. Today is day two of back to school and it was much more productive than day one. We actually kept to our schedule, and managed to complete all of our goals for the dayContinue reading “Day 8 | The Covid Chronicles”
