52 Ancestors - Favorite Photo


Favorite photo was last week's prompt, but I thought in honor of Nonna I would post it this week. This lovely and talented lady turned 77 this week. Happiest of Birthdays to you Nonna. Nonna was a competitive roller-skater.

Superbowl Weekly Roll

 Ready for the BIG game?  Are you not a fan of sports ball? (LOL) Regardless I have some interesting links below for all.

How to Watch the Super Bowl - I decided to subscribe to Peacock for a month, so I get the Olympics as well. It was worth the 10.99 for me.  I could have changed my subscription included with my Walmart + from Paramount + to Peacock but I really like my Paramount.

Superbowl Games to play while you watch the big game. I have commercial bingo, but the commercial scavenger hunt sounds fun (#22)

Pregame Show from Alcatraz

Olympics More your speed - This ice dancing documentary on Netflix - Glitter and Gold. There is quite a bit of real life drama in the ice dancing world.

Jeffery Epstein and 23 Me DNA Tests - Weird crossover between Epstein Files and Genealogy

Inappropriate Thoughts

My Bestie and Me at my first NFL game

If you have any questions on who I will be rooting for in the Superbowl.  I think these photos will help.

What is saving me

 We have reached the middle of winter. Modern Mrs Darcy hosts a "What is Saving You".  It is funny that it always seems like the little things that are saving us. My list is below.  Check out what is saving others.

Buy Good Gloves - I live in a place that hardly ever gets much snow, but I was glad my husband bought me some good gloves.  I was going to cheap out, but when we had Snow and Ice Armegedon in Southeast New Mexico last week I was glad I didn't cheap out. I am a person who always has cold hands.  


Lighted Dog Collars - We started walking our dogs after supper and it is dark.  We got red and blue lighted collars. We are the neighborhood paw patrol.  They are rechargeable and have several light modes.

Book Club - I belong to the Sharon Says So book club.  I enjoy reading books I normally wouldn't attempt or pick. we read mainly nonfiction. I learn something every time. There is something so satisfying about sharing ideas about a book.  Also, in this turbulent time I find Sharon McMahon's knowledge and advice a welcome breath of fresh air. You can find Sharon on Instagram - SharonSaysSo

Postcard from Zazzle

Sending and Receiving Postcards - I joined postcrossing last year and it is a lot of fun to send and receive cards from all over. People always ask what I write.  I always write a little message tailored to their profile. Since I live close to Roswell, New Mexico. I send lots of alien postcards. I ask, "Do you believe?".

Deep Thoughts


I am in my hometown while my mom recovers from surgery. We always have a lot of laughs at my parents' house. My mom and dad like to laugh. I think I get my whacky humor from them.

Wordy Wednesday

 


The Widow and The Widower
by Todd Connor

Before Christmas, we visited the Briscoe Western Art Museum in San Antonio. The man in the picture reminds me of an old coworker of my husband. The quote was above the painting.

Sunday Morning View

Did you survive the storm/snow Armageddon? Yep, Southeast New Mexico got hit.  I am not sure our town even owns plows.  

This what it looked like Saturday Morning

Inappropriate Thoughts

Snow makes me feel lazy.  I have no excuse for not posting this at its regular time.  I literally did nothing of importance yesterday.  I crafted a tiny bit, watched a dumb movie, did a bit of puzzle and took a 2-hour nap. There were probably less than 10 cars that drove up our street. I think mail delivery was canceled.
