Rise and Shine

This morning came quickly…

Yesterday was a full day of appointments, then Mr decided that he wanted shrimp but not from home. We hadn’t eaten from TGIFs in at least 4 years and his taste buds led him to believe things would be the same. I was tempted to sit this one out…I’m glad that we both now are in agreement on this place. We will not be returning.

Last nite was a fruit fest and on this morning I cooked grits, eggs and turkey bacon. I finally got him to try some coconut milk with pineapple and he likes it. I have lima beans cooking for dinner and we sat out back for only a few minutes. One of the neighbors was out back as well and the faintest of cigarette smoke was in the air so we moved to the front and enjoyed the breeze, chatting it up for a while.

The garden is steadily peeping out and all on it’s own. I’ve been so busy that I have not had time to give it any real attention. Peppermint, Spearmint, Lemon Balm are growing strong. I also spotted both Lemon and German Thyme, which are his favorites. We have an abundance of Greek and Italian Oregano that survived the winter. Various potatoes are still growing strong as well the collard greens are still producing. This weekend for sure, I must get more sweet potatoes in the ground and okra planted if nothing else. This will happen after I’ve done some much needed weeding.

We had two decent nights of rest and then last night, so after I give him his shower we both will nap or atleast attempt to. Tomorrow is another appointment with the Oncologist.

One day at a time!!!

We’ve got this because God’s got us.

Blessings Abounding, Vetta
