I Just Love My Backyard!

People have asked us why we have moved here, out in the boonies.

😕 But you are out in the middle of nowhere!

😕 You don't even get good cell service!

😕 Don't you miss living in town?

😕 And, etc., etc. etc.!!

And the answer to all of those comments is...BUT, I get all of this instead!!

I get...

😀 Comments like, "It is so peaceful here!!

😀 Deer outside my windows!

😀 And, this for my backyard...




😀 And this, for my view from my porch...




Isn't autumn in Indiana gorgeous!!

Cheers...to the Good Drivers!


What a Weekend!

Life can be a whirlwind, but that can be a good thing, right?!! 🌪🌪

The weekend for me starts when I get off of work at 7 PM on Thursday evening.  The hubby, who works midnight shift right now, has that evening off as well.  He usually stays awake in the evening on that night, and we sometimes go out to supper or something.

Since he had left a voicemail earlier telling me to pick a restaurant, I was quite surprised to get home to a dark house.  It turns out that he had fallen asleep at 6PM, and ended up sleeping 12 hours! 💤🛌💤

Poor guy...he had to have been exhausted!! 😴

From that auspicious start, I ended up having a fantastic time the whole weekend.

He had been wanting to take me to the Exotic Feline Rescue Center in Center Point, Indiana.

And that is exactly where we went!  Lions, tigers, bobcats,...you name it. They had it.  These are all animals that have been rescued from all over the country.  Many of them have had some very sad beginnings in life, but the center has improved their lives dramatically.





Next on to work, where we got to paint rocks and then hide them for inspiration to others.  (#PublicLibrariesRock)



Left work to drive straight to the other side of the state for a 3-hour visit with a friend.  Sorry, no picture!  We were too busy eating and catching up, that we forgot all about getting a picture!  LOL 🍲

Caught a few 💤💤💤 before the family reunion the next day.  Had a great time visiting with everyone, and meeting new relatives.


And then another 2 1/2 drive home, to finally rest.   By the way, did I say yet that both of those drives were partially in the pouring down rain!  🌧 White knuckles, that was for sure!!

All in all, this was a fantastic weekend!

Loving life, and enjoying each moment I can!  💖💖💖

How was your weekend?
