What’s Up Wednesday?  Here’s whats up…

What we’re eating

I have been using recipes from the ruled.me website.  This is a KETO diet website with some of the yummiest low carb recipes I’ve ever tasted.

Some of my favorites are:

What I’m loving

LB bought me a lemon tree!

And not a moment too soon… there were NO lemons to be found at the grocery store this week!

What we’ve been up to

Lots of yard work

What I’ve been working on

Front yard landscaping and flowers

LB and I added stepping stones to the area near our water hose.  It looks a bit unfinished at the moment, but that is because it is.  I’m still working on it.

I moved a lot of amaryllis that I divided last fall.  They are likely the red ones Wendy told me about, but I haven’t seen them bloom yet.  Hopefully they will like their new home.

Back yard landscaping

We have also started construction on what I will call a french drain.  I don’t have pictures because I’ve been digging.  We are hoping this drain will help fix the back yard flooding that we now have to endure [thanks to the neighbor to the north, who filled in the retention pond behind our house, and raised his yard by two feet].  There is nothing like a good neighbor!

What I’m dreading

ummm… just work.  Monday through Friday.  That’s the only dread-worthy thing in my life.  However, I am thankful and blessed to have a job.

What I’m watching/reading

At the moment, I am watching the latest from X22 report.  Dave has a lot of great information that you may not hear about if you only tune in to the main stream media.

What I am reading is “The Healthy KETO plan” by Dr. Eric Berg.  The book is good and I’ve learned a lot about how good health is necessary to prevent excess weight and even hot flashes.  It has been quite a learning experience.

What I’m wearing

Nothing fancy.  I pretty much live in my Old Navy jeans, but I have ordered and received a couple of jeans from other brands.  Gloria Vanderbilt jeans have not changed.  Wearing these jeans will make you look like “mom”.  Lee jeans are a little better, but still not very flattering.  My current favorites are Sofia Vergara, but [sadly] they are SO LONG I am going to have to have them altered.

What I’m doing this weekend

This weekend nothing major is happening.  No family gatherings.  No parties.  LB and I will probably be working on the drain if weather permits.  If we go anywhere it will probably be to COSTCO to get some more mulch.

What I’m looking forward to next month

May is going to be great.  Hopefully there will be a vacation sometime along the way.

  We are planning to have a sidewalk put down in the side/back yard.  It will be nice to be able to walk in the yard without having a flip-flop sucked off by the soggy ground.
