Good Morning Thursday – Asparagus Omelet

Good Morning Thursday to You!

Good morning smiles induced by asparagus.

It is still all over the stores, even my asparagus is alive and growing in the garden.
I had to do a loaded omelet,
cheese, tater tots, ham, spinach, onions, and the gem of it all, asparagus.
Topped with salsa and cilantro.

I fry the egg most of the way, but not all the way to leave a little yolk.
Toast the english muffin, put on a little butter, stack it up.
My yummy jump start of the day.

Photo Friday – February 26th – Garden clean up

Happy Photo Friday to you!

It was a mixture of pictures this week.  And with some wonderful weather I finally got my garden taken down from last year.  Although it worked out that I didn’t get it taken down since when we had a big snow the deer hopped into the yard and ate all of the leaves from my tomato plants.  It gave them something to eat, and it wasn’t as messy for me to clean up.

Smiles and Trials of the Day – February 24th – Puppy Milestone

Smiles and Trials of the Day.

It has been a while since I have done this, although today we reached a milestone, simple as it is I had to write about it.

Trials:  We have a new puppy, we got him at 8 weeks old.  Today marks day 11.  Sleepless nights, he has been up every 2 hours, to every hour to go outside.  The last two days I am proud to say I got a 4 hour segment and a 3 1/2 hour segment of uninterrupted sleep.  Trying to house train, crate train, learn the hierarchy of the house.  Me going crazy, crap…where did he go…he was just here next to me.  Yelling out… stop it, leave it, leave it, be nice, no bite, really, NO.. as he runs off with a pillow, or the top to a storage box. And other well, just noises I make which he seems to be understanding.

Smiles: As I said this is day 11.  Anything that happens after this post I am considering another day.  This day marks a milestone.  No accidents in the house or the crate!  This is seriously huge for me.  We had appointments to go to today. The first one we were gone for 2 hours.  Louie Dog was whining in the crate when we left.  When we got back, calm and no potty in the crate.  The second time he was calm and quiet when we left.  When we got back no potty in the crate. In and out of the house, play time, nap time.. all good and going potty outside.  I am a happy person here.

Tomorrow may be a completely different story, I am still smiling that we have conquered today.
