Miscellaneous Monday…NEW stuff i gotta share

Posted on by

Happy Monday! It’s high time I posted (cuz it’s been over a month!) Yikes! I remember thinking if I paid for WordPress instead of having ads on my site, that would lead me to post regularly…to make it “worth” it! How’s that working for me?? I clearly need to be more intentional!

Nevertheless, here I am, and here’s some miscellany to share:

We had a family get-together and rode ATVs to this beautiful waterfall. So I’ll update my 100 Waterfall Bucket List!

Speaking of waterfalls…my ultimate bucket list waterfall to see is Iguazu Falls, and it WILL happen! We’ve booked our trip for early next year! I’m SO excited. Here are some Google images of Iguazu Falls:

Even more exciting is that I’m finally a Grandma! Yay! I haven’t asked permission to post any photos, so that will have to wait.

Here’s what I’ve been reading lately. And when I say “reading” I mean mostly listening to (on commutes to work)! My yearly GoodReads challenge is 75 books and I’m on track to reach that challenge. I’ve read some really good books this year. I’ve never really wanted to read everything from any particular author before, but I’ve decided I’ll read all of Susan Meissner’s books. Wish me luck…there are about 30. If I get tired of them, I’ll abandon that idea! :o)

That’s probably enough miscellany for now. The other stuff is too boring to share (the depressing process of getting decking bids…why is trex decking SO expensive?!) Travel planning is fun, but it’s hard to wait…I just wanna GO GO GO! The fires are making air quality not great. But I’m loving the beautiful summer flowers everywhere! I think I’ll go for a bike ride and enjoy the lovely yards in my area.

Have a great day! I hope you do or learn something NEW today!

  1. That’s a lot of exciting new stuff and I am THRILLED about your opportunity to go and see that waterfall. It looks out of this world! Congrats on the new grandbaby. I’m not a fan of babies, but I keep wondering if I ever get a grandbaby if I’ll change my opinion? Well the kids currently have no interest in expanding the family, so I’ll keep wondering. 🙂 I am super envious of your reading. I went from about 25 books a year to just a couple. It is crazy how much less time I have now that I share a home with Pedro. I guess I would rather have my beloved with me, but I do miss the books. And the blogging. And the podcasts. ha ha

    • Oh, i know what you mean! Life happens…My average blog posting rate is about once a month lately. You gotta pick and choose i guess. And yes, having your beloved Pedro should trump just about everything else, right?!

  2. Congrats on the new grandbaby. I “read” books by listening to them too. I used to do it when I commuted to work and now if I’m outside gardening or doing stuff around the house I’ll listen to a book.

  3. That is a beautiful picture of the waterfall. I hadn’t heard of Iguazu Falls. I googled it and wow, THAT is the place to see waterfalls! Congratulations on your grandbaby.

  5. Congratulations on being a grandmother, Lenore! That’s so exciting! I popped over to your waterfall bucket list – we’re headed to Niagara Falls (NY) next month – getting excited. I love seeing your posts – keep them coming 🙂

  6. Well first of all, big congrats on becoming a grandma, Lenore! How exciting! I have a good friend who once said that grandchildren finally explain to you why you chose to have kids in the first place, lol. And another congratulations on your trip to Argentina! The falls look to be amazing. Life gets busy sometimes and takes priority over things like blogging. That said, I always look forward to your posts.
