My Super Trooper!

20140708-160014-57614267.jpg

Here is my super trooper at hospital to get his fifth or sixth bone marrow biopsy during his lifetime! We were both stressed!

I had to leave the room while his Dr. Performed the procedure or I would have passed out.

Hubby is in bed sleeping and resting now. We won’t know the results right away but are pretty darn sure he is out of remission on his Hairy Cell Leukemia.

Poor guy did not want to have to go through all this again. He keeps hanging in there and trying to be strong and survive.

“The Original”

TheOriginalRestaurantI love the looks of this restaurant downtown and want to eat there sometime! It looks like a 50’s type place! Can’t wait to see what it is like!

Watching one of my favorite shows earlier, here is a pearl of wisdom that I liked! “Trust is something hard to win, Easy to lose, and never to be taken lightly” Very good pearl of wisdom!

Dang it, time for bed for my non-sleepy head, cuz tomorrow is the dreaded Monday! Looking forward to the day, retirement comes, and every day can be Saturday or Sunday!

Sunday Happenings……

I spoiled my hubby and made us steak and eggs and fried potatoes and onions for Brinner! DSC_0004All my goodness in the crock pot for home made chicken soup! I boiled the chicken and deboned it for the crock pot soup!DSC_0005Sauted onions, celery, carrots for the soup! DSC_0001DSC_0002DSC_0003Bird watching over the fence. These guys are eating in our neighbors yard! Purdy birdies!

Hubby and I are both fighting depression, he has to go in for a bone marrow biopsy to see if his Harry Cell Leukemia is back. This is something he will never be rid of. He recently lost his Uncle who had the same rare cancer.

I hope that your Sunday was awesome! Now off to restart my knit project because I made a boo boo and ripped it out! I don’t want any holes in my knit project!

Going Out of My Craft Comfort Zone!

MyNewKnitProjectI found a new pattern that I wanted to try and decided to go out of my craft comfort zone of straight needles and use circular needles for my project! The first row was the tough one but after that I am doing good with it! I can’t wait to get more done on it to show it off to you!

I have to take a little break at the moment, I gave myself a small bruise on the tip of my index finger in the stitching process with the point of my needle! It is because I need more practice with these kind of needles but I like it!

I want to make hats and scarves on them now too!

Jane Eyre Movie

Jane_Eyre_PosterThis morning I watched this movie and loved it! Jane has a bleak childhood and goes out into the world to become a governess. She lives at Thornfield Hall and meets the dark and cold, abrupt master of the house, Mr. Rochester. They grow close and develop a friendship and she falls in love with him. However he has a secret and could this destroy their love forever??

I want to get the book now and add it to my collection along with the dvd of this movie. I watched it on Netflix and loved it! I love that Victorian era of time too in how proper they were in attire and how they present themselves!

mia-wasikowska-65th-cannes-film-festival-01Mia Waskowska did an awesome performance as Jane. Look how beautiful she is! She is an Australian actress and was born in 1989 (Yikes I am getting fricken old)! tee hee???????????????????????????????????The handsome Michael Fassbender was Mr. Rochester, the master of Thornfield Hall and the love of Jane! OooooLaLa! Arrivals At The Orange British Academy Film AwardsJudi Dench was Mrs. Fairfax in the film and I adore her! I love everything that I have seen her in! Jane EyreI love this pic of the two in the movie! If you haven’t seen it please do!

It is on my must see again and again list! A+ for the chick flicks!

Hugz from a movie-holic!

Yummy Slightly Sweet Tea

20140704-134213-49333304.jpg

Just made myself some iced tea that is slightly sweetened with simple syrup!

Wonderful to have on a hot summer day! Hubby helped me in the yard this morning getting it mowed and spiffed up! Bear just loves his clean yard!
