2015 Project 365 – Week Thirty-five

This week was all about the moon… Also, Dr. M took a lot of great pictures that I’m not including here because he did a blog post! Go check it out here.

Sunday, August 23^rd

My daily walk…

The moon!

Monday, August 24^th

Pinky.

My daily walk.

The moon! (I’m sensing a theme here…)

Tuesday, August 25^th

My daily walk.

One of the roses at Dr. M’s school.

I’ve been trying to sing some because choir is starting back up next week. It amuses me to sing out of the hymnal of my youth – that is older than I am.

Squares #3 and #4 of Pattern #16. I finished the blue & white one last week, but forgot to take a picture of it. The green & cream one definitely needed blocking!

Wednesday, August 26^th

That squirrel – ha! We’re pretty sure he was looking in the window of the barn to see if it would be worth his effort to climb over there.

Crocheting by the fire…

Thursday, August 27^th

I love this pattern! I took pictures after each row because it was so interesting to me how different it looked along the way.

Friday, August 28^th

Dr. M & I are going on a cruise in December for our 25^th wedding anniversary – so excited that our new passports arrived today!

Finished the square - #1 of pattern #17.

We had quite the conflagration going on!

The moody moon…

Saturday, August 29^th

An even moodier moon.

Smelly cat! Someone said that you could remove the scent glands & it would make a great pet. My question is – who’s going to catch it to remove the glands? I think we’ll just stalk it from a safe distance. Ha!

Hope everyone has a great week!

2015 Project 365 – Week Thirty-four

The week I took a trip…

Sunday, August 16^th

We had a marriage recommitment service at church today.

Hummingbird!

I left for our corporate office in Delaware on Monday. Sunday night I got a wild hair that I needed to put some sort of tag on my suitcase so I would recognize it in a lineup. Ha!

Monday, August 17^th

Seen around the yard…

Waiting in the airport. I took some tomatoes to my boss.

Tuesday, August 18^th

Some coworkers at our Delaware office took me on a walk to a local market where I picked up a fabulous salad. I loved the birdhouses along the river. They were all modeled after famous buildings – Christina’s World is from the painting of the same name.

That evening my boss had a cookout for everyone – I love what she did for her daughter’s nursery.

Wednesday, August 19^th

Seen in the Philadelphia airport on my way home. I was SO TEMPTED to get a Pope for my own self :)

Thursday, August 20^th

Seen around the yard.

Friday, August 21^st

The campus rock that gets repainted every semester is a minion right now – love it!

Chickadee!

The moon…

Saturday, August 22^nd

We had a visit from a Carolina Wren. Isn’t it cute & scruffy?

Our nocturnal kitty is back.

Hope everyone has a great week!

2015 Project 365 – Week Thirty-three

Just another week in the life…

Sunday, August 9^th

Ms. Pinkie Petunia Verbena.

I am OBSESSED with this word game I’ve downloaded onto my phone. I had passed the Penguin level earlier, but today I made it through the Sheep level. Ha!

Monday, August 10^th

We’re not sure, but we think this squirrel is saying the Pledge of Allegiance. Although, since he’s facing the Nazarene church across the street, it might be the Pledge of Allegiance to the Christian Flag, instead of to the American Flag. Evangelical squirrels – who knew?

His & hers tomato knives. If you look closely you can see some pepper from a prior mater sandwich.

I did the 10 on 10 thing today. Go here to read all about it (actually, I think most of you have already been there & done that ).

Tuesday, August 11^th

Around the yard.

Square #1 of Pattern #16.

Oh mater tree, o mater tree, how lovely are your green-and-red orbs…

Wednesday, August 12^th

I took a mini walk at work (I mowed later for my “real” exercise). Gorgeous sky!

Thursday, August 13^th

Very early Thursday morning Dr. M tried to capture the Persied meteor shower. He saw a few shooting stars, but wasn’t able to get any pictures. I thought these were pretty cool anyway.

On my daily walk I passed the house that mows about twice a year. They always just leave all the grass on the sidewalk. I kind of like to shuffle through it & crunch on the dry bits.
