Woke up super early with wide range aches and pains, but no fever. Tylenol is taking the edge off, but I think I have some virus as I’m feeling a little nauseous, though I can eat. Go figure. I feel 90 when I’m almost 50. Brian came home from work for lunch and just felt worn out, so he stayed put. He did yard work over the weekend and I was working at mom’s and overdoing bending and lifting, etc. The tummy was off on Thursday. I took a little walk around the yard today and picked some arugula and lettuce. Shouldn’t have been leaning over. I think a nap sounds like a good idea!
We are having a contractor come and give us an estimate for a much needed basement door tonight. We have those metal doors that open outside, but this is for the door at the bottom of the steps. Since the metal doors could be replaced too, all this air is coming in during the wintertime and our master bedroom is right above that and I freeze now. Hope we can get a good price. Used an website called (but don’t quote me) Service* master. They found 3 guys in the area. One sounded familiar and we are pretty sure he messed up something in the house years ago-electrical in the family room, and had to be redone-pass on him. Wish us luck!

Sean as Phantom of the Opera
So cute!
Sean with his pumpkins
We had a successful pumpkin crop that year! I think Sean is about 4-so about 19 yrs ago!
Photo Hunt-Bag(s)
I have a few photos of my cat in different bags-I figured I’d see lots of those in the hunt.
This is our 20 lb turkey from last Thanksgiving in a Reynold’s Cooking BAG. It was very tasty and I plan to use one of the bags again. It helps to keep the moisture in a meat that can get dry.
Dianne and Sean on his 23rd birthday
And a new shot of a proud mom and her sweetie pie son. : )
Bi-color Nasturtiums
Aren’t these a pretty type of nasturtium? I still have quite a few. I go around in July and pop a seed here or there in the gardens. It’s a beautiful day and I should be planting about one dozen bulbs that I have. I fear the ground is too hard. I may have to wait until it rains again.
Have a lovely weekend! There are lots of fall festivals going on-even in our town. May have to check it out!
Pumpkin Cheesecake Muffins
I was in the mood to bake tonight. I pulled out a box of Pillsbury pumpkin bread and caught a glimpse of the above mentioned recipe on the side of the package. I’m going to try and keep cream cheese, etc. in the frig and I was happy to have some. It didn’t take long to assemble these. I only subbed pistachios for the pecans which were fine. It’s a nice light muffin too! Buy some pumpkin bread mix today! : )
Yummies from the Mushroom Festival
A touch of the festival-mushroom soup and a butter cookie from the Mushroom Festival in Kennett Square, PA.
Crepe Myrtle against blue skies
Wanted to share-so pretty!
The 31st is fast approaching!!!
Only a few days left until the drawing for my bag of goodies. I promise you’ll like what I have in the giveaway. I made this Artist trading card last night to add to the booty. I bought the little starfish from a shop on Sunset Beach near Cape May, NJ and it’s not the only thing I bought there (hee hee). The seashell stamp in the middle of the umbrella is embossed in a sparkly gold. Add your comment to the sticky post above to be counted in. It won’t count under this entry. Good luck!
