Well, it's not HOT in my neck of the woods in temperature (not today anyway) but it's sure been a HOT minute since I last posted. For that I am so sorry but it seems my life has been consumed with doctor appointments, tests, and MORE tests, biopsies, surgery and so much more. One day at a time sweet Jesus is all that any of us can ask for. Wanted to pop in on this beautiful Sunday afternoon to share a little about what I've been up too. Marty and I enjoyed a weekend at the beach before I had breast cancer surgery and took advantage of the time I had in between so many doctor appointments and testing. It was sure a good little getaway. We celebrated our 47th wedding anniversary in September. WOW! Just babies! LOL! We were high school sweethearts. Started dating at age 16. Married at age 18 and started a family at age 20. We celebrated Marty's birthday in October. He says that he's feeling his age these days. LOL! He still works 4 days a week and has a long commu...
Anyone else there with me? LOL!
Good Sunday afternoon everyone. I hope that your week has been great. I've had a productive week so it's always good to chill out on Sunday after church with the family.
After our usual Sunday Dinner my soninlove David carried us for a ride on the old dirt roads. It was nice as it was far too hot to do our usual outside sitting by the pond.
We celebrated my friend Mary's 81st birthday on the mats. Miss Mary does weight lifting training and competitions and has won several in her division. She is such a precious lady and full of energy. I told her that I wanted to be just like her when I grow up. She said, "Well, I am still not sure what I want to be when I grow up". LOL!
I made a batch of pork fingers in my air fryer one afternoon last week and oh my mercy! They were so good and juicy. I know that I have told y'all before but...I do enjoy using my air fryer.
I hope that you all have a great week and that the Lord blesses you beyond your beyond.
Hugs and blessings, Cindy
That last quote is so true...God is good...All the time, God is good! We say that every Sunday morning in the beginning of our service. I love your family photo...all of you in that truck or whatever it was? Looks like a lot of fun! And then you and all those sweet ladies laughing and exercising and having a good time! What fun! You make me smile! Oh, I am sorry that covid has delayed school for your sweet grandgirl. This is just crazy. Praying it will go away and stay away for good, in Jesus' Name!! Those pork fingers look good. You do make the best stuff. Thanks for sharing and hope you have a blessed and beautiful week all week long!
ReplyDeleteThank you Pam. Us exercise gals keep each other laughing. We had a good ride in my SIL side by side. Was nice to have a breeze while riding.
DeleteI don't know about my friends, but I am pretty forgetful. 😏 Awww...gotta love kids who want to be teachers when they grow up. A worthy calling to be sure when teaching truth and nothing less. Nice to be with family doing fun things. Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteThank you Vee. Hope your week is awesome.
DeleteToo bad Kyleigh has to miss school because of classmates that have the dreaded Covid. It sure is a plague. I love that picture of a bunch of you taking a Sunday drive around just for fun. Might as well enjoy the summer even if it is hot. I must say though that it's really bothered me this year. I'm looking forward to Fall and cooler weather. Wearing a cardigan and jeans again.
ReplyDeleteIt took a while until I really used my air fryer but now I like it. Middle son made some awesome jalapeno poppers in it on Saturday and he and I feasted ( no one else likes spicy food).
Have a wonderful week!!
Oh my mercy, I haven't tried the poppers yet and I have some jalapeno's about ready for harvest. We have fried and grilled poppers but excited to try them in air fryer. YES, bring on the cooler weather.
DeleteHa ha, I can relate! Glad you had another fun week, thanks for the smiles and uplift this morning!

Thanks Jenna.
DeleteMy memory is also terrible these days! A few weeks ago, I took my parents' car out for a drive and forgot to close the rear windows...and of course, it seems like all the neighbours noticed and alerted my parents. LOL.
ReplyDeleteForgive my ignorance, but how does an air fryer work? You fry things without using oil?
LOL Margie! Parent's notice everything! Yes girl...google air fryer. So much better for you but I've not cooked anything that I did not like! Now some things weren't my favorite as with anything, it's trial and error.
DeleteWe sure do need laughter with our friends, Cindy! You all look fabulous, too, and Mary is an inspiration! That’s too bad about Kyleigh out for a week. That Covid is here to stay. Your pork fingers look so tasty. I hope you have a joyous week, Cindy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kitty.
DeleteSounds like a busy week but one that I am sure you enjoyed so much. My grands have been in school for right at two, maybe three weeks now. Crazy. Here in Nashville when I was in school we went to school the week after Labor Day and then that next week we had a day off for Fair Day. But, we would go into June due to snow days but now they get out before the end of May. Hoping you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteHope that you have a great week too.
DeleteOh yes, the coffee maker! My hubby and I were at the antique store, and I saw my old Cornflower blue stove top coffee maker for sale. It was almost $70! I have a rice maker for fluffy white or brown rice. Mexican rice has to be done on the stove. I should not be thinking about food late at night! Enjoy your week too Cindy!
ReplyDeleteAnything cornflower blue in an antique store is costly for sure.
DeleteLaughter is a good medicine and we certainly need it now. I love seeing all of you enjoying an afternoon ride. Wishing you a lovely week, Cindy!
ReplyDeleteIt sure is Pam.
DeleteOkay, I'm going to have to try some pork tenders in our air fryer. 81, my goodness, she looks so good. I want to be like her when I grow up too. Happy everything!
ReplyDeleteHave a good week Lea.
DeleteIsn't it nice to know that you're not the only one whose memory blanks out from time to time? I'm glad to hear I'm in good company, girl!
ReplyDeleteYes girl! LOL!
DeleteLaughter with family and friends is wonderful ...
ReplyDeleteI do like the photograph of Kyleigh, and who knows she may well become a teacher in future years :)
Enjoy these last August days and my good wishes for a happy September.
All the best Jan
I love the meme at the end. God surely is so good to all of us. I think I am finally caught up on your blog posts. I am so aggravated that I no longer get them in my email. I don't know how to fix the problem and hope I can remember to come by to read more often. I know a lot of readers are no longer getting my posts, either, and I miss their comments. Such is life in this crazy world. God bless you, sweet friend.
