Catching Up With Ya'll

My, oh my, how time flies by.  What have I been doing?  I don't really know.  Crazy.

I guess I do have a few things I'll share.  They aren't in any chronological order. 

I had some squash growing in my garden and decided to find a recipe on youtube.  I picked one that I thought would be good and easy, and it was when it came out of the oven, but reheating it wasn't so good.  Next time I will try a different recipe.  But here is the one I did make.  

Meghan's 28th birthday was the beginning of the month.  She was actually due to be born on August 12th, but she just didn't wanna be born then and she waited a long time -- Sept. 6th to be exact!

Donald took me out eat one night and we found this soda made by Coca Cola.  Never saw it before, so that was weird.  Did you know that Pepsi Cola Company makes a drink called Baja that is only exclusive to Taco Bell?  Anyway, here's that Inca Cola looks like:

To me it tastes a little like bubble gum.  I didn't ask Donald what he thought it tastes like and he didn't say.  Sometimes you just want something different.  

And, omgosh take a look at this.  Creepy.  Donald and I were on the side of our house when I spotted this.  It's getting to be spider season around here, but really!

What the heck kind of spider is that???  I've seen more and more of these around.  We live with woods around us, but living here for 35 years this is a new breed.  And these spiders are humongous!!  Please let them stay outside.  If I ever got one of these in my house.....can't even thing about it.

Tomorrow we will be celebrating Adam's birthday.  It's three weeks after Meghan's, but different years, of course.  

It's already started to get chilly here in Maryland.  Donald and I have had no vacation per se this year since he's having to go to the hospital every single day for treatment.  He has 3 weeks vacation he needs to take or he will lose.  I think once he gets back to work he's boss won't be happy to have him gone again.  I'm thinking maybe Donald can have four day work weeks until his vacation is used up.  The doctors are saying he might be able to go back to work next week.  I hope so.  Otherwise, he'll have to put in for SS disability.  {thumbs down to that}

I'm starting to think more about eating vegetarian..more fruits/vegetables.  I think if I can come up with some vegetable dinners I can slowly have a couple nights when we eat that and eliminate the meat.  I'll have to work on that.

That's all for now.

Blessings!
