Flashback Friday ~ Rock The Chalk

I love summer time here in Iowa City, the college kids are gone and downtown turns into a different atmosphere with all the Summer Arts festivals and just plain fun events.The Friday in 2017 we came back from vacation was a new one. I almost signed up to do this but I knew my joints would not let me. The weather was absolutely perfect to be outside.

It was Rock the Chalk. Here are some of my favorites.

Thankful Thursday ~ Sierra Jo Dominguez

I have been making my plans to complete our yarden next year. Yes, that was a "y" in place of a "g". I follow Sierra Jo Dominguez on Instagram. She is another person who saved me. I love following her. She is a beautiful soul. She has fake cooking shows, backyard gardening, home repair and remodeling, she shares her life, and her new passion for pottery.

I love the relationship I have with them but I also miss the days they are little from time to time. Life is definitely changing, always changing. I love my new position at work. I am finally getting used to the "normal" hours and I will be able to dedicate a couple of nights to my blogging again and reading my favorite bloggers/friends. In the midst of it all, I have seriously became old ... my body aches so much any more. I am seeing a doctor to assist with the pain. The end of March and the beginning of April are my worst time of year. This year I hope I am able to concentrate on the memories and love of my Dad and concentrate on Emily's baby shower for our new little soon grandchildren. I think I am battling some Empty Nest feelings. My boys are growing up and they reach out to me very little. NoNo will be graduating
