Really nice Saturday.

What passes for "fall" in Louisiana.


Sorry for the blurry pictures. I'll try to do better next time.

Went to the Jockey Lot flea market. Got a couple more sets of sheets for the bed. They are hubby's favorite right now.


We had lunch at what has become my favorite place in Lafayette. Tao Asian Cuisine.
I forgot to take pictures. But I did find a picture of hubby's meal on the internet.


I recommended this dish to him because I have had it before. It is really good.

And we had to stop at our favorite pastry shop, too. laMadeleine.


And that's about it for our Saturday. Found a lot of stuff. And a lot of stuff we didn't find, but can't complain with sun and 73 degrees. :)

You all be safe and God bless. ♥

Happy Thanksgiving!

I know I have a lot to be thankful for. More than I know for sure.

I hope you all have a wonderful, blessed day.

Appropriate day

I want to thank everyone who has served and is serving, for our freedom.

Today is a grey day. Appropriate, I think for the solemn memories.

Wanted to let you see our grey sky, Mom!


Hubby is more sore today than he was a couple days ago. The doctor told him that would happen.
Going up and down stairs multiple times yesterday probably aggravated him some, too.

Still waiting on the VA who seem to be dragging their feel a lot. Typical government health care, no matter the President's Veterans Day message.
Not his fault though. Just annoying since the health care was better a handful of years ago.

You all be safe and God bless.

I got a new toy. :)


It's called a Jaw Saw. Made by a company called WORX. It is a battery operated chain saw. It cuts logs, branches, and small saplings up to four inches in diameter.

I tried it for a bit today. Would have done more, but had to poison some fire ant hills first.

I LOVE IT!

Hubby had a scare this evening. He thought he might have cracked a rib. Fortunately, he just bruised his side. Thank you, Lord!

The VA is dragging their feet over everything lately. Ever since VA health care supposedly is starting to improve, it has gotten noticeably worse here. Trusting in God to get things done in His time. :)

You all be safe and God bless. ♥
