praying for a bundle of intentions – so many friends and family need them.

Still plugging along.  Eating right most of the time, and freakishly happy about cooler weather so I can get more outdoor exercise.

::pondering

How to smooth out the transition for Mom Pea moving here.

::creative

Knitting on a fall wrap.  Flower arrangements for a charity dinner this Thursday.  Clearing the decks at home, because I need just a bit more tidiness to soothe my scattered brain cells.

::delicious

  • Grilled Salmon, Spinach Salad
  • Fried Chicken, Mashed Potatoes and Green Beans
  • Dirty Rice, Broccoli
  • BBQ Pork Sandwiches, Mixed Veggies
  • Something at the Charity Dinner that will Include Beer, since the Venue is a local Brewery!
  • Rigatoni with Eggplant and Spicy Marinara
  • Omelettes and Hashbrowns

::fun

Saturday was my birthday, so we traveled north to visit my family for the weekend!  It is always a blast when we get together.  We went to see Wicked, ate at our favorite restaurant, indulged in Chocolate Fudge Cake, fixed Mom and Dad’s shed roof, played with the cousins, rested and talked until we were hoarse.

Grandma and the Grands!

Grandma and the Grandkids – (top to bottom, left to right) The Architect, Princess Pea, Cricket, Cherry Ames, my Mom, DirtBike and WonderNiece.

Wicked!

::looking ahead

Stephen Breen Dinner, Golf Tournament, Cooler Weather, Football, DirtBike creating a job for himself mowing lawns, the last piece of birthday cake.

Friday’s Letters – July 19

Angela Pea2 Comments

friday's letters

Dear SyFy Channel  – Sharknado.  Absolutely the Worst. Movie. Ever. You have finally unseated Attack of the Killer Tomatoes from that illustrious pedestal.  And?  It was completely hysterical.  We watched it last night to see what all the fuss was about and laughed until tears ran down our faces, not because it was funny, but because yes, it’s really that bad. “Sharks in a tornado.  Sharknado. Simply stunning.”  And friends, in case you’re thinking about checking this out with your family, this isn’t a movie for young kids. (My boys are older teens, so yes, they were allowed to watch.)  Lots and lots of totally fake shark attacking gruesomeness – sharks in the living room, chainsaws, folks with chainsaws getting swallowed by flying sharks and surviving.  Let your imagination run totally wild.  You get the picture.

Sharknado

Dear Water Park – Yeah!  You’re finally opening!  All those kids you hired back in May have been patiently waiting to start work, and now they get their chance to earn a paycheck.  Not for long, though, because most of them head back to school in a few short weeks. I hope you have a backup plan for lifeguards.  Writing notes to their teachers requesting ‘excused absences’ probably won’t work.

Dear Watermelon – You, my dearest, sweetest friend, are the best part of summertime.

Linking up with the Ladies at Suscipio.  Go visit today and play along with the 3-2-1 so we can all laugh together today!

Recognize your Moments of Grace. Keep the Faith.
