another Sunday in paradise


a pumpkin beauty -- a lot of work pumpkin beauty


my new shoes from temu ..
the place that had my favorite planners -- I bought 10 planners
should get me thru retirement if I don't self destruct first


after working a lot of yesterday, I snatched Mom and we went to the cabin for supper and sunset ... it was pizza night w/a large side of ice cream

we enjoyed the always fabulous sunsets and left for home about 9:30 .. I snapped this from the jeep on as we were leaving -- we should have stayed .. I had hoped it would be dry enough to mow this morning -- it wasn't so we went back this morning

I swore off ice cream on Friday when my jeans were tight -- that lasted less than 24 hours .


there is nothing more peaceful than sunset (or sunrise) 

I picked up sweet corn on the way out this morning -- we had sweet corn for lunch ( or she did - it doesn't like me, ever ) ... I had a couple of work projects and finally found a good book .. 

made it home in time to spend 3 1/2 hours on the lawn mower -- I can finish tomorrow and move on to weed whipping -- I hate weed whipping


 

another scrappy beauty
