Finally Took the Plunge...

Good morning, Friends...

Well hopefully, I'm back to a regular posting schedule!  It just seems like it's been a really busy July...doing things at church...home...and I don't think I've sewn a lick this month!  Can't seem to get all my chickens in one place!  Not happy about that... 

 

We did, however, finally decide on a car.  We loved our 2013 GMC Terrain so much that we bought another one.  It's hard to beat a GMC anything.  They're just a well-made car or pick-up.  The last one was made in Canada...the 2026 was made in Mexico.  Hopefully we'll get another 12 years out of this one..we'll just have to see...Hopefully one day soon, we'll start seeing more cars made in America!

It's really going to take some time to learn about everything that's on this car...Larry asked what I wanted on it, and I said since it's probably going to be our last new car...I wanted everything.  Auto-start, heated and cooled seats...heated steering wheel...auto back lift...navigation...cameras...car play...all of it.  The only thing we didn't get was 4-wheel drive.  I don't think we're going off-road anytime soon, and with what little we do drive that extra expense wouldn't make much sense.  If it snows...we don't go out.  It has front wheel drive so that should be enough.  That's the great thing about retirement...

Secrets!  lol

Samantha, Sloane and Lottie resting at home...snuggle time.

I get to keep little Lottie on Friday!  Sloane goes to daycare three days a week.  Sam has some appointment and needs free hands.

Found this sweet photo of Larry at Air Force training tech school in Colorado...so long ago.  Looks like a baby!

1968...

Never knew this...but then, why would I.

Made an easy meal for a family of three whose wife is just out of the hospital.  I figured since here was supper...they needed cookies...Everyone needs cookies!! lolol

They're not homemade but they are really good...Pillsbury.

A hamburger on lo-carb tortillas!  Why eat all that extra bread when you don't have to??  These are great!

Pork and broccoli... sorry, but the only way I'll eat the green stuff is if it's covered in cheese!  

Pork ribs with Larry's baby lima beans…

Scrambled Egg, tomato and cheese Grits...

Well, that's about it for me this time.  Hope you all are doing well and are safe wherever you may be.

We are still trying to deal with the drownings at the Guadulupe River near Kerrville, Texas.  UPDATE: 120 confirmed sweet lives lost...more than 160 still missing...so far.  All those little girls...campers...it's just unimaginable.  Please say a prayer for all the families involved... so...

Until next time....
