Cuddle time and Tacos......

It has become apparent to me that neither Cheerio or I like or enjoy having Ron be gone, but in our defense we sure know how take care of each other. Spending the morning on the couch at Duncan was the perfect way to take care of each other. 




After leaving Duncan, to head to Columbus, I was soooooo hungry so decided to treat myself to my favorite Amigos Chicken Soft Taco's. It was pretty tasted especially my special fun treat......ROOT BEER!!! YUMMMO!
On and side note with a full tummy, we settled in for a nice comfy evening at home.

20 Days

till the Daytona 500! Gotta LOVE a NASCAR sign to brighten your day and remind you that get through another Monday and you are one Monday closer to racing season! This sign was outside the car wash as I was giving my baby a wash job.  Gotta love race fans!

Wine and Snack Time

Tonight, we are having some folks over from out of town for snacks before heading out to Reg's 7 Mile for supper. Wine and snacks were on hand for the folks to enjoy. It was a lovely evening full of lots of Nebraska  originals including wine :)

Success Treats and Sweet Success

I am totally hooked on Skinny Cow ice cream sandwhich's. They are a tasty little treat and not too scary in the calorie and fat area. I certainly enjoyed one as a treat for finishing Organizing my storage rooom and heading toward my Scrap and Craft area. I am certain I worked this off, lifting and stacking boxes.


My Clean and Organized Scrap and Craft and sort area! It is nice to have an office with Ron but someday's I just need my own personal space to hang out in and craft and sort. Can't not WAIT to find a table for this space. I am hot on the trail of a perfect table. SO so so happy that this is done. Been working at this for five months since we moved. Still some to do but I'll get it done! I swear.
My paper and supplies look so nice. So SO happy this is done! 


Some of my favorite things are back out. Gifts from Scrapbooking friends, godmother gifts and my Antique Cameras, Albums and Binoculars. 

Grandma's Sewing basket safe and sound on my Scrap cabinet. Xoxo

and there you have it. My own little space clean and organized. I am happy to have my Antique Camera and Binoculars back out...I missed them!

Good days...

are sometimes hard to come by!

Our Office .... before. DANG was it a mess! UGGH!
The Mess that is our Shared Office space. 

It may make a complete recovery yet....not quite done but much better. 
After a busy day, I decided it was time for some homemade Goodness. 

CROCK POT PORK CHOPS

Ingredients 
Original recipe makes 4 servingsChange Servings

Directions

  1. In a pie plate or shallow dish, mix flour, dry mustard, and seasoned salt. Trim fat from pork chops.
  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Dredge chops in flour mixture, then place them in the skillet, and brown both sides.
  3. Place in chops into a slow cooker, and pour the chicken and rice soup over them. Cover, and cook on Low about 8 hours.


I did not have Chicken with Rice Soup....so I used Chicken Gumbo. It gave it more of a Southwest taste. I will DEFINATELY be making this again! 

Funny, how things work out but Ron decided he wanted to go to a Movie. We went to the 8:30 showing of Parental Guidance. Funny how I thought living in a "bigger" town would make the movie more packed. However, Ron and I were the ONLY TWO people at that movie. I couldn't believe we had our own "private showing" but we did. We also enjoyed the Popcorn, but then again who doesn't love movie Theathre popcorn! YUMMOOOO!!!!


I really enjoyed the movie as did Ron....and now I promised him we would go see Lincoln......

Fun and Games

It was so nice out today but instead of taking advantage of this day outside, I had to recover from what was three days of Technological hell. I could start and list all the crap I got accomplished but it would give me another headache worse then the one I had at the end of the day yesterday. Let's just say I rewarded myself with a midday game of Words with Friends. I love that game. After I got my housework and other tasks of the day done, it was time for my little break. I was so happy because for the first time EVER playing this game I used every single tile from my board on the first play....sorry to my friend Deanna. Sorry girlfriend :) Who would have thought the word Cavemen could be worth 71 points :)




While indulging myself in Words with Friends...I noticed one little brown dog sound asleep on our couch in the sun. It was so cute. He was crashed!!! He started off just looking at me then ended up stretched out and sound asleep. It was hard not to crawl over there and snuggle up with him and take a nap myself......could you blame me.
