Week 2

Hello and welcome back!  Last week was a pretty slow week just trying to get back into the groove of a routine again.  Of course having to continually deal with sets backs in the pandemic doesn't help when it causes routines to keep changing.  Hopefully someday soon we can have our real normal back.

Until then take a look at last week's pictures and how we mange to plug on:


Day 9- Monday, 1/9/22

Thankfully we have this kitty guy to help keep us happy and grounded.  As you can see from Justin's IG posts they have made the most out of spending time together over break.  These two have been inseparable and I know Justin is dreading leaving him behind when he returns to campus this weekend.




Day 10- Tuesday, 1/10/22

Today Justin helped me run a bunch of errands on my breaks from remote work and again there was no line at the new cookie place so we had to check out the new set of flavors.  We each picked one and then shared halves.  His was Neapolitan and mine was hot cocoa flavored.  Later I spied this beautiful, pink, newly opened rose out back.  It seems crazy that roses are starting to bloom already.  It's still very cold out and they look too delicate for that.




Day 11- Wednesday, 1/11/22

The best thing to come from the pandemic is the virtual back to school nights and also virtual check-in Dr. appointment.  I'm a huge fan of both of those.  Brandon just started his final semester of high and I got to meet his teachers tonight while in my pjs with my trusty girl by my side.  He's taking Government/Econ, Digital music production, and Science Fiction film and lit with a zero period 4th which will come in handy on tennis game days.




Day 12- Thursday 1/12/22

There was a nice wispy-cloud, winter sky on our evening walk tonight and then as we circled back to the house I spotted this one yellow rose in bloom out front.  It adds such a nice pop of spring color in an otherwise grey-winter world.  I guess this just so happens to be a good week for roses.




Day 13- Friday, 1/13/22

TGIF! Aside from yellow roses we also have a lot of yellow lemons ripe and ready to be used so lemon drops were the drink for a cheers to the start of a long holiday weekend.  Next up, the Friday night movie was the latest Ben Affleck film which was good watch with an even better soundtrack.




Day 14- Saturday, 1/14/22

We had a grey and foggy start to our morning, but then once the fog cleared and the sun came out it turned into a really nice day.  Thankfully that happened just in time for Justin's drop off at the train station.  He's headed back to Humboldt for the start of another semester.





Day 15- Sunday, 1/15/22

It's game day!  Tyler and John were happy for a Niners win in this wildcard battle.  Later we had burgers for dinner and blackberry cobbler for dessert.  Yum!


That's it!  Hope to see you back next week.
