Anniversary # 65

Yeah, that is not a  typeO.  Nancy and I have been married that long and lasting through the tuff time and good times, we are more in love each day.

We will be staying home this evening instead of going out for dinner, because Nancy hasn't been feeling very well for the last week.  So I think we will get a meal "to go" from Bob Evans.

Also later on in the evening I will be making Cabbage Rolls for tomorrow's meal.  

As you celebrate New Years Eve today and night please be careful.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day. 

Merry Christmas to all

To all of you I really wish that you woke up this morning in good health and feeling like facing the day.

Nancy and I got a gift yesterday seeing Sherry (our daughter) and her husband Mark, That were spending their Anniversary in Daytona Beach come over to visit with us. 

It was so good to see them again.  Thanks Sherry and Mark.

                                                               

Nancy and I usually Have a breakfast each morning, but the other day I spice mine up a little.

By adding Hungarian Pepper, tomato, and Tater Tots it made a good breakfast much better.

Nancy and I will spend a quite day today just relaxing as we do most of the time.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great and safe day.    

 

So, how you been

Nothing exciting has been happening around the old home place.  Well let me back-up a pace or two.

If you have been with me you will know how I really like the college basketball and football games.

So there is my exciting times, I know you may not find that is what you like but we are all different and that is what makes us the people we are.

I have tried playing a round or two of golf and found out that wasn't for me. 

Would you believe that in my teens I even tried my hand or should I say my fists at boxing in the "Golden Gloves".  Well it didn't take me long to find out that this little guy was not going to be a famous boxer.

Nancy and I have been getting some of the things that we wanted for Christmas and we know Christmas time is a special time of the year, but we get what we want anytime of the year and we really do not want very many thing anyway.

Thanks for stopping by and have a geeat day.

 

More of seeing Doctor.

 Yeah. where have I been?  

Nowhere I guess I've just kind of lazy.

I'm having more than usual doctor's appointments being started with my Cardiologist to get the old heart checked out good, which I have not since my second heart attacked in 2015.

I went this morning early to have a heart monitor put on and I will go early in the morning to return it for the Doctor to see if all is ok or not. 

I went to LabCorp Monday to have blood drawn, which can tell many things going on in the body.

                                                     

In the mean time Nancy has been cooking real good meal for me.

Like the one above with, pinto beans, baked potato, slaw, boneless center cut pork chops and corn bread.

Also its that time of year when football is winding down with the bowl games coming up.

Basketball games getting started good at two to three games a week much to my liking.

So retirement can be as busy as you want it to be or not.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day. 

   

 

What we had yesterday.

     I hope all of you made it through Thanksgiving Day alright!

                                                                   

Our day got started Wednesday evening with Nancy getting the deviled eggs cooked up and put together.

Then I shredded up the cabbage and whipped up the slaw.

Next was trimming down the Ham shoulder and potatoes to put in the IP pressure cooker.

After that Nancy put her green beans on to cook, which takes a little time,  because she lets them cook all the way down. 

Next Nancy put her sweet potatoes in the skillet to cook up what she calls her "candied sweet potatoes."

Of course you have to have Cranberry sauce.

Got to have the rolls.

Here's what it looks like all together on a plate.

                                                   

An hour or so later we had our desert, which I added more whipped cream.

That was our first time trying the whipped cream and it really tasted good.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

 

                                                        

Happy Thanksgiving

 I have so many things to be thankful for that I don't know where to start.  So I will just list the most important one first that I'm Thankful that the Lord has his hand on me and kept me around this good earth for so long.

Today will be a busy day for Nancy and myself in that we are going to prepare our meal and stay inside instead of going out to eat.

I asked Nancy if she wanted to go out to eat and she said no because she knows how I like to eat and watch ball games on the tv.

Thank you dear, you are the best.

I hope all of you, my readers have a safe and enjoyable day today. 

What's been going on

Well let me just tell you.

                                                            

                                  

Nancy prepared us a good meal Friday, country steak and gravy with potatoes, green beans.

Nancy said the way I took the photo with the gravy on the steak, it looks like an ice cream sandwich.

It might but it tasted better than an ice cream sandwich. 

I helped Nancy with the washing and drying of our laundry.

Plus it was the day to do the floors.  So go got out the swiffer, first it was with the dry pad to get up the dust.  Then the moist one to go over the floors and that really makes the floor shine.   

I had another good week-end watching the college basketball games.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

 

 

More Doctor Visits

 Hang on I'm still here, yeah I know I'm slow about posting 

But with trying to straighten up the motor home and the house plus Nancy and ny docror appointment does take time.

Speaking of appointments, for a chance I've got close to the number that Nancy has.

Somewhere around the middle of August and the first of September I had an episode that I was a little concerned about but waited until we get back to see my cardiologist.

Well he has lined me out on different days, first is December 8th for a Holter Monitor, next is December 13th for a Chemical and Treadmill Stress, December 15th Echocardiogram, January 6th Carotid Ultrasound.

Somewhere in there I've got to have blood drawn before I go back to see him on January 26th.

Plus Nancy has me on a tight schedule of house cleaning and going to the store.

                                                         JUST JOKING NANCY

I went to T-Mobile yesterday to get the $50.00 internet unlimited plan for the house because the one I have is suppose to shut down sometime in early 2022.

I got it up and running and more than happy with it.  That thing is fast.

I'm glad that its that time of the year again "College Basketball". 

That is about all happening here on the front.

I do thank you for stopping by and wish you a great day.

   

Little Caesar's Pizza

 Wednesday is usually our day for pizza and cheese bread, so its off to Little Caesar's for me.

                                                               

We get the Pepperoni Classic, here is my slice and no it doesn't come with that much cheese.  I always add a little extra to my slice.

Nancy likes the Cheese Bread more than the Pizza.  All of that food makes our meal for two days.

Nancy felt a little better over the week-end so she cooked up a pot of beef and vegetable soup.

It tasted really good and it was to long of a time coming. But that is ok because I know she doesn't feel good most of the time "bless her little O' heart.

Thank you for stopping by and do have a great day.  
 

  

Sam's Club

 Nancy likes to eat Mini Sweet Peppers with her breakfast sandwich, so I get to clean them for her.

                                                                   

The other night as I was cleaning a pepper at first I thought it had a bug inside of it but, on looking closer it was a pepper growing inside.  This was a first for me, if I had seen this before it has been so long ago I have forgotten it.

Tuesday was a day to be a little busy with going to Sam's Club.

I bought some gas which was 16 cents cheaper than the other stations around the area.   Looks like everyone else had the same idea since the 20 pumps were at least 4 cars deep.

Yeah it looked like an early Christmas inside. It really wasn't very crowded in the store like the fuel pumps were, although I did see a few large screen tv's going out the door.

                                                    

By the time I was ready to check out of Sam's Club I called Nancy to see if she wanted me to get anything out of the freezer section that she could throw in the micro wave instead of her havig to cook our meal.  She agreed the would be good.

I got us a frozen Stouffer's meat lovers baked ziti meal.  It was a good price that had two boxes that said 4 servings each box.  The meal was better than the price, really good.

Thanks for stopping and have a great day.

                                                                      

 

  

Pep Boys----"We Think"

 Of course you know I watched football Saturday, only a couple of them this time as I had to go to a couple of other things to do.

My a/c on the car is still giving me trouble with the Freon leaking out.   I took it to Pep Boys, they checked it and said it was low on Freon, "duh" yeah that's why I brought it in.

They filled it with Freon and dye incase it leaked again.  I said  "I will be back" the fellow said "we think it will be ok".

I was back the next day!  They took it in the back to check it again and said, we couldn't find the leak but thought it might be the high side valve leaking.  So they put a new valve on it.

Again I said I don't think that would be the problem because the valve has never been used and would not be leaking since it has not been opened.

Well the Freon leak out again the next day.  I had it in the shop yesterday and after four hours again said "we think" it was a rubber o-ring so in went a new put in a new one.

Time will tell.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
