It’s that time of the year for new growth. And word is out\u00a0that there are new baby egrets over at the nearby lake.<\/p>\n
Which brings me to the reason our pond is still covered. This guy came for a visit last week, only to discover he was not able to reach the fish, thank you pond net for holding up.<\/p>\n
It’s also a busy time in and around the pond.<\/p>\n
The fish have spawned several times and I’m working double duty to keep the pond nice and clean. In the process, I think I’m getting a little extra\u00a0vitamin D.<\/p>\n
Monday\u00a0evening, the hubs called to see if I wanted to watch our show together. While we were worlds apart. Or so it seemed.<\/p>\n Note: If\u00a0you are anyone that knows me well, you know\u00a0I’m not a TV person. While I enjoy the shows we watch together, like survivor, Master Chef and Better Call Saul, I don’t bother turning on the TV when the hubs is away.<\/p>\n So on that particular night, he\u00a0had to walk me thru instructions, just to get the TV on.<\/p>\n Once “we” (the me<\/strong> part of we) got to the right channel, we were all set to watch Better Call Saul.<\/p>\n The fun part was texting between commercials and even during the show. That was my favorite night, as he felt really close.<\/p>\n One day I picked roses from the garden. It makes me happy to bring the outdoors in.<\/p>\n What makes my heart sing<\/strong> – Sometimes things grab our attention without trying to notice. Like this canister at the front of the store in the after Easter clearance sale. Several thoughts that ran thru my mind in like 1 second. 4 dollars and change? really? I love it! It’s cheerful and happy! For that price it’s ours. And so it was. Next year, I’ll have to make a cozy little spot for us to enjoy.<\/p>\n One day the hubs sent a text…”How many pieces of fudge would you like?”<\/p>\n You see, he was in Ft Worth again, staying in the Stockyards next to the\u00a0candy store where they sell my favorite fudge in the world. Of course not counting my mom’s fudge,\u00a0her fudge\u00a0is the best, but only made once a year. That’s another story for another time.<\/p>\n Back to the number of pieces I wanted. I responded “One piece baby, just one.” That was\u00a0my\u00a0fudge order.<\/p>\n Well fudge, I didn’t think another thing until he got home Friday afternoon with a couple of boxes of goodies. I wonder if he left enough fudge on the shelf for others. Obviously he was not concerned with\u00a0sharing. That’s\u00a08 huge pieces of fudge for me. Yeah, he’s not a fudge kinda guy, so it’s all mine.<\/p>\n The best part about this fudge is, the decadence of peanut butter and chocolate in one smooth creamy bite. It\u00a0is sure to satisfy the craziest of chocoholics.<\/p>\n After the hubs\u00a0busy week, we\u00a0decided a laid back weekend was the ticket to rest up. We did enjoy a few dinners out, a quick stop at the ice cream store and a lot of relaxation.<\/p>\n And with that, my wish for you is a Happy New Week.<\/p>\n Blessings – Debbie<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello World!
