A bunch of photos of Milan have popped up in my Timehop lately…
Always remembering all the good times with the bud dog. 😀🐾❤️
This cute photo of Oscar also popped up in my Timehop…
As well as these photos of the immortal cat…
It’s hard to believe that the cat has outlived Milan by almost five years. He’s gone but will never be forgotten.

The day got off to an overcast start…
Good morning from Northside…
They started working in front of our house again this morning…
There was a lot going on for quick second on our street…
And that’s the progress they made today…
Good evening from Northside…
Mack and Oscar were all tuckered out…
It’s not everyday construction equipment rips up your street, let alone your front yard. 😀🌄🚧🐾❤️

Good morning from Northside…
We ran over to the grocery. They always have different balloons…
I like looking at the balloons. And then we got our Mad Llama coffee…
And we got our delicious Mad Llama bagel turkey sausage, egg and cheese breakfast sammich on an Asiago cheese bagel…
Tomorrow, they’re going to start working on the water mains on our street again. I went out to move the Jetta up to the end of the street and it wouldn’t start. Again. I just had a new battery put in it the last time they worked on our street. I think it’s probably the alternator but we’ll see. This morning, AAA came out to take it to one of their repair centers…
And there it goes. I hope it isn’t too expensive.
Oscar was just hanging out…
It’s Sunday. We must be going to Taft’s Brewpourium for pizza…
We got to watch the crazy end of the Cowboys game…
Taft’s is such great stuff. And today, they had fried mushrooms….
The sky was so pretty this evening…
And good evening from Northside…
We asked the two people standing on the hill what they were watching for, and they said the International Space Station was just about to fly over…
And suddenly, there it was…
It was just a little pinhole of light. It almost just looked a star but it was really moving quickly across the sky…
And there it went…
How neat was that? Just being in the right place at the right time.
It was a really cool way to end a great weekend…
Next week is probably going to be another crazy one. 😀🌄❤️

It’s nice to visit new places but it’s also really nice to be home…
And good evening from Northside…
It’s nice to be home. 😀🏡🐾❤️

The sunrise this morning was a really pretty one…
I bet Mack was wondering what the heck I kept looking at…
And here’s what it looked like when I shared it on Instagram…
It was pretty morning in our backyard too…
And good morning from Northside…
When Genifer went to lunch with her coworkers at Taste of Belgium, she also brought home a bag of blueberry Belgian waffles, and those waffles are delicious…
It was pretty this afternoon in our backyard as well…
While I was working this afternoon, Mack wandered into our office and set one of his squeaky toys on my leg and left…
And Bear was crashed out in Mack’s crate in our office all afternoon…
For dinner tonight, we had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals for dinner tonight. This one was Italian Sausage Penne with sun-dried tomato cream and sweet corn…
It was another really delicious dinner. We really like the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kits a lot.
After dinner, we shared a giant chocolate chip cookie that Genifer brought home with her from Currito…
Oscar likes laying under our dining room table while he waits patiently for us to finish eating dinner so he can go on his walk…
And good evening from Northside…
And then we wrapped up our Tuesday back in our backyard again to play more ball…
We had a pretty darn good Tuesday. 😀🗓️❤️

Happy Sunday! Good morning from Northside…
Here’s another photo our new hose, still without any leaks…
Genifer made cupcakes this afternoon…
But before we ate cupcakes, we took the time to slow down and grill…
We were about to grill up a whole bunch of good stuff…
Why does everything always taste sooo good off the grill?
Recently, we stopped buying hamburger and hot dog buns. We could never eat them all and we would end up throwing a bunch of them away. We found this sweet Hawaiian bread that we really like. It’s really tasty. We’ve just been using that bread for just about much everything. And now, we don’t waste a bunch of buns!
After we finished eating our grilled feat, we went back out in our backyard to play some ball. It was a really pretty afternoon…
Oscar doesn’t really play a lot in the backyard. He prefers to go on walks instead of running around in the backyard. The only time he really runs in the backyard is if a squirrel wanders into our backyard. Mostly, he just likes to sit on the patio and take it all in. But sometimes, he’ll leave his patio and go out and sit out in the sun…
Later, we went on our evening dog walk…
Good evening from Northside…
It was a really nice and relaxing Sunday. 😀🗓️🌄🍔🌭🐾❤️

It was a really pretty Saturday morning…
Hello moon…
Good morning from Northside…
Our replacement hose showed up and it works great with no leaks…
And then we went to Kroger for groceries…
Kroger had some adorable balloons today…
And afterward, we stopped at Mad Llama for some Saturday morning coffee…
There was train crossing over the road on our way home…
We mowed the weeds in our backyard…
Three weeks until our fence gets replaced and then we can start working on making our backyard look more respectable…
We got this delicious fruit at the grocery…
Good evening from Northside…
We played ball in our backyard for another half hour…
Those dogs play ball until they can’t play ball anymore…
Mack wandered off in the middle of the night. And I found him on our office WyzeCam all crashed out in the office…
And this photo of Oscar was in my Timehop…
We had a really good Saturday.

So far the weather has been almost autumn-like all week. It was only supposed to reach a high of 79º today. This morning was chilly enough to wear a hoodie while we were taking the dogs on their morning walk. And it felt like we should be getting ready for college football this weekend. (Like there’s going to be college football this year.)
Still, it was a very pretty morning…
And good morning from Northside…
I realized that I never posted any photos of our freshly painted living room…
The living room turned out so nice. Genifer did such an amazing job with the painting! We’re looking to get a new sofa with a new, bigger TV and TV stand for our living room so we can hang out in our living room more.
And good evening from Northside…
We had BLTs for dinner again. We love BLTs. I had a BLT wrap. It was terrific…
Genifer went out to lunch at Taste of Belgium with coworkers today. And she brought home a oatmeal raisin cookie and brownie for us to share for dessert…
The icing on the cookie was so good…
And the brownie was more like fudge than brownie. It was very rich…
We played ball in our backyard for a half hour tonight…
All the dogs were so tuckered out afterwards. Mack always crashes out in the weirdest, most uncomfortable looking positions…
And when we got upstairs, Oscar made his way under the sofa. Almost…
It was another pretty good Wednesday. 😀🗓️❤️

We got up extra early this morning to run a couple of errands before work. But first, we had to walk the dogs. It was a little hazy this morning. The hill off in the distance looked extra distant today…
Good morning from Northside…
Our little shrub in our front yard is so blossomy…
We ran to Lowe’s so Genifer could get another gallon of paint for the living room. And then we swung through Mad Llama for coffee…
And we made it back home for my 9am meeting. It turned out to be a very pretty day…
Good evening from Northside…
And then we watched the entire Reds game, from the first pitch until the last…
The Reds looked formidable as they beat the Tigers 7-1. It was really good to watch the Reds again! And it’s so amazing to have MLB back in our lives. While we were watching the game, Oscar snuck in between the sofa and the ottoman…
It was such a pretty evening…
It was a really good Friday. It’s terrific to have baseball back! 😀⚾️❤️

It’s another Monday. It looks like this is going to be another super busy week at work.
Good morning from Northside…
We saw this little snail shell on the sidewalk. It was right in the middle of the sidewalk…
When I picked it up to move it, I discover it was empty. I carried it home. And placed it on our little decorative rock next to our shrubbery in our rock garden.
We were both busy at work today. I don’t think this week is going to be a lot of fun.
For dinner tonight, we had the tortilla crusted BBQ chicken with cheesy potatoes and corn Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kit again…
It was another really delicious dinner. And it was every bit as good the second time around. We really like the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kits a lot.
Good evening from Northside…
Oscar really likes hanging out under the sofa in our master bedroom…
But he doesn’t go all the way under the sofa. In fact, most of him usually isn’t under the sofa at all…
He’s pretty silly. But you should really hide from Monday before it starts not after you’ve made it through the whole day.
Happy Monday for Northside. 😀🗓️❤️
