Katie and Ellie

Old pocket Venus, married almost 50 years. Democrat, chocolate freak, British tv and writers, gardening, secret optimist, champion complainer. Leaving the bird. A dear friend’s profile, now passed, was one word. Bitter. Adding that in her honor.
This one not fuzzy. Note to old self, don’t lean over into camera. Also don’t bend knees and sit on floor without a plan for getting up.😂
Recommend rolling onto your side, pushing up with your arms, grabbing whatever is closest. Pull. Good luck.

Wanted a pic with husband for first Thanksgiving ant this house, our 51st together. Nope. Tried to take a selfie with Ellie, she was kind of a jerk but played along.

While I made breakfast Ellie found a new obsession, the foil the poinsettia pot sits in. No worries, she couldn’t care less about the plant. Had to fight her to release it, she then happily ate breakfast, sadly barfed it all up, needed to be hand fed broths to settle…I had cold coffee and toast.

Always fresh ground orange and cranberries. Maybe 10 years ago found this, it’s the one ore made I buy. Delicious.

Well, it’s time. She’s had a little breakfast and will spend most of the day under the bed. Wish I could do same.

We make a delicious dressing we call green stuffing because of so many fresh herbs. Company that made the perfect dense bread out of business. Found these. Cut into small squares. Traders. Perfect texture. Pleased.

Newly discovered photo of 2nd GG, thought gosh, glad I don’t take after her. Second thought, wait, she lived into her 90’s. As did 2nd G-grandad. And their children, one of their daughters looks like an athlete. Giant. Beautifu. Those Germans had some strong genes. I believe that’s a cat.

Walked out of garage last night to get the mail. Pitch dark. Couldn’t see anything. Heard loud heavy breathing. WTH? It was Sophie, saw me from across the street. 😂

Meet Steatoda Nobilis. Also known as Marge. Big girl. Walked out at dawn this morning at dawn, thought she was a beetle, got my glasses, nope, legs. Seems she has quite the bite. We’re respectfully ignoring each other.

Have these boots in tan. Frye. Love. Great for short legs. Been googling all year for a 6 in black. Nope. Well, full price, sure but that’s never happening. Frye ain’t cheap. Last week, bingo. 1 pair available, over 50% off. Came FedX. Fast. Authentic, brand new, perfect.
SHOEBACCA. New to me. 🤷♀️

So much fun. Dad’s blasting Shania, moving furniture, deep cleaning.
Personally I think it’s a bit loud.

Thank you! I’ve worn the cardinals, the polar bear and the tree already. The red was perfect for today. Brrr. New one this year is a beagle! Haven’t worn yet.

Get it up! So happy having decorations out. Needed! Just had coffee and cookies in a Christmas mug and on a Christmas plate. Music playing. Reading While Ellie’s sleeps.

Fed her lunch on back of sofa because at this point I don’t care. She could be in my lap but I still have pants on, she doesn’t like that. Waiting for pj’s.
