Flower Power

Flower Power

So much going on. Last week Jdub and Tommen came for a visit. They spent the night Saturday and we had a great time. It was the first time that the Tommen really seemed to remember us, and have a lot of fun. The grandmas came on Sunday to celebrate Suey’s birthday. It was a nice surprise for both that Jdub and Tommen were there. We grilled kabobs and I made a chocolate peanut butter pie. I was good and didn’t even eat any!

I am officially declaring myself a farmer. I have planted zucchini and tomatoes! It’s been 60 – 75 degrees with plenty of rain so I think they’ve already doubled in size. Tomorrow I am going to plant my 3 planters. Flowers make me happy. The colors I am going with this year are purple and yellow. I have some petunias, some purple daisies and some yellow flowers whose name I can’t recall. I’ll work on the beds next week. S has the lawn looking like a golf course. Today was sort of chilly for May, but tomorrow is supposed to be great. There will be gardening, grilling and most importantly GAME of THRONES episode 4. I won’t give any spoilers here, but I LOVED episode three. I had to turn all my indoor lights off to see it properly because it was so dark, but it was well worth it. What a fantastic ending. I’m not sure how many people were expecting THAT when the episode began.

We’re still going strong with Keto. Weigh day is tomorrow. I am down about 30 lbs and S is probably down 38. Next week we have a three-day weekend. We had originally planned to go to Jdub’s for a visit, but we’ve pushed that back to the following week. Next weekend I am going car shopping with my mom. I hope the weather is nice for at least a couple of our days off. I want an 80 degree, sunny day where I can sit on the deck with a book. I just finished the James Patterson book, “The President is Missing”. It was good. I read it pretty quickly. Now I am reading a new JD Robb. Ideally I am reading it while tanning my extremely white legs next week. Fingers crossed.
