Wordy Wednesday - Nuclear Edition

Is it just me but farmer's market and nuclear waste should never appear together? Does the produce glow? As usual, I have questions.

Moving Diaries - Tragic Backyard

Well the good news is we have a great big back yard. Bad news is it looks pretty tragic. It is also full of this evil weed called goat head. We can't let our dog out there. So what needs to be done is number 1 we have to burn the whole yard. Burning is one way you can rid the yard of goat heads.

Enter torch and propane. I think my husband enjoyed this even though it was already quite warm. What man doesn't like to play with fire!

While we were at the local hardware store we spotted a sticker picker upper. I asked the clerk if this worked. We are now the proud owners of a sticker picker upper.

My mom thinks the log pictured below looks like a elephant leg.I guess this was once a "Tree of Heaven".

We have a lot of these volunteer Tree of Heaven growing along our fence line. A thinning needs to occur. It is the only actual green thing in our yard.

Weekly Roll - How I Gave My Whole Family the Plague

The family who stays in the same small Air BNB will get the same wonderful mucus inducing cold. They say sharing is caring. I care an awful lot.

My friend shared this on her Facebook page so I thought I would repost. It makes me smile.

Inappropriate Thoughts

Get a new dining set just so your gigantic bear has some where new to sit. I love my kid but sometimes the bears sitting places just creep me out. He was really proud though he found a new spot for his bears to sit.

Moving Diaries - Reunited Never Felt So Good

Last week, our stuff finally showed up. Hallelujah. Reunited never felt so good.

We have been without our household goods for a month. Living out of your suitcase and what you could pack in 2 cars is not horrible. Initially I really didn't miss my stuff. However, it is hard to not have exactly what you need and improvise.

I actually miss some stuff I can never get back like all the plants I gave away. I was watching Retro Plant Shop on Discovery Plus and man did that make me miss my plants. I also need Joanna Gaines sister. I am willing to be adopted. LOL My Mom and Dad got me a housewarming gift of some plants. Now they need names

I had a friend that did like an experiment where they only wore a capsule wardrobe for 30 days, I was living that. It was hard to pack for 2 different climates - rainy/cold and temperature of the sun. I am glad to have more choice in clothing.

I am loving being reunited with my computer printer. I have been using the library for my photocopy needs but now I need to bust out a big printing job with sensitive personal info and I would like my printer.

It is hotter than hades but living the AC life also gets cold. I miss my quilt my best friend made. I am glad to have it back.
