Good morning from Northside…
We stopped at the grocery out in West Chester…
Ugh. Those don’t even really sound good. 😝 But they did have the panda AND train at this Kroger…
We stopped at Skyline for lunch to go…
We took lunch over to Geri’s to visit for a bit. And then it was back home…
Good evening from Northside…
We had a wonderful Sunday. The weekends always go by so fast. 😀🌄🐼🚂🌭🍝❤️

They were supposed to starting to work on our street again today…
Good morning from Northside…
For dinner tonight, we had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals for dinner tonight. This one was Cheddar Bacon Crusted Chicken with ranch potatoes…
It was another really delicious dinner. We really like the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kits a lot.
We played some ball in the backyard…
And good evening from Northside…
As far as Mondays go, it was a pretty good Monday. 😀🌄🐔❤️

We love our new little side yard…
And we love our backyard fence…
Good morning from Northside…
This afternoon we drove out to West Chester…
We had lunch at Dingle House…
They had a peanut butter milk stout from Left Hand that was just out of this world…
Genifer ordered Mike’s pastrami on sour dough…
I had a half-order of their fish and chips…
While we out in West Chester, we visited Geri for a bit, gathered Oscar and Bear to finally bring them back home with us and then we headed back to Northside…
Good evening from Northside…
And this evening, we watched Minnesota United draw with Houston and Louisville City thump Memphis…
It was another really good Saturday. 😀🌄🇮🇪📺⚽️❤️

Good morning from Northside…
Mack usually hangs out with me in our office while I’m working but today he wandered off. And I found sleeping in my spot on our bed…
When were out on our walk this evening, we saw this yard sign…
Oktoberfest Zinzinnati is traditionally the nation’s largest Oktoberfest and the second largest in the world to the original Oktoberfest in Munich. And apparently even with COVID-19 this year, Oktoberfest Zinzinnati is still taking place around town at favorite Cincinnati eateries and pubs and In Za House at home…
Good evening from Northside….
Oktoberfest Zinzinnati In Za Haus will enable Oktoberfest lovers to get their German on at home by ordering do-it-yourself Oktoberfest Zinzinnati Zelebration Packs. This year’s mostly virtual Oktoberfest starts today and runs through next Saturday, September 27th. PROST!
And good night from our backyard…
Thank goodness, it’s Friday. 😀🌄🥨❤️

This morning we woke up early to get over to Lowe’s…
We wanted to get a big drum of stain for our brand new fence. It’s so exciting. After we chose our stain, we headed over to Mad Llama for our Saturday morning coffee…
I bet about half of our runs to Lowe’s and the grocery have just thinly veiled excuses to run across town to get Mad Llama coffee because it is so good…
When we our new fence was installed, we had them move our gate up to the street side of our side door. It gave us a little side yard space that is actually usable now. This afternoon we worked on cleaning up on newly formed little side yard space…
When they ripped up our street to replace the water main, they left a pile of the bricks on the side of our street. It turns those bricks were the original cobblestone bricks from back in the day when Beech Hill was a brick cobblestone street. We grabbed as many of those bricks as we could and stacked them by our air conditioner on the side of our house. We weren’t sure what we were going to be using them for until today. We used them to line the path in our little side yard…
Good evening from Northside…
And good evening from our backyard…
With our new fence…
And our new little side yard…
😀🌄🏡❤️

Our big day was finally here! The contractors from Lowe’s showed up early this morning to get to work on replacing our backyard fence…
We scheduled our fence to be replaced all the way back in May. And there was such a backlog that we had to wait until today to get our new fence.
They had the old fence down in no time…
And then they started dropping in the new fence posts…
They built the back section of the fence backwards because of the chain link fence that was right against the property line…
And just like that, they were finished with our fence and it looks amazing. We had the side gate moved up to give us a wonderfully functional side yard space…
We love it! It looks so good and so much better than it used to look. The guys did such an amazing job building it. And we couldn’t be happier. 😀🏡❤️

Good morning from Northside…
I had a bunch of delicious tacos for lunch…
Taco Tuesday on a Wednesday? That’s just how we roll over here. Why should Tuesday be the only day to have all the fun?
Good evening from Northside…
We worked on cleaning up the ivy a bit more in our backyard…
I think we’re ready for our fence to be replaced tomorrow. 😀🌄🌮🏡❤️

HAPPY LABOR DAY! We’ve had a really great long weekend so far…
Good morning from Northside…
This morning we ran over to the grocery…
And it’s that time of year again. pumpkin spice everything…
And they didn’t have the bear OR the train in the international aisle…
And we had to get our coffee from Mad Llama…
We didn’t get pumpkin spice anything. Genifer got a caramel latte and I got my beloved caramel java whip. Mad Llama’s coffees are so good.
Later, we started clearing all the ivy from our fence…
Our backyard fence is finally getting replaced this week! We’re so excited.
And once we cleared as much of the ivy as we could, it was time to reward ourselves with an NYPD Hoagie party…
NYPD Hoagies are so delicious. And the cheese fries were really good too!
And good evening from Northside…
It was a pretty nice Monday to wrap up the long holiday weekend. 😀🌄❤️

Can you believe that today is the first day of September? It’s crazy how fast the year has gone for pretty much staying at home for the last six months.
When we looked out our bedroom window this morning, we saw a new friend sitting on our window sill…
How cool is that? We haven’t seen a Praying Mantis in a quick minute.
Good morning from Northside…
The praying mantis was still hanging out after our morning walk…
When we were leaving Knoxville, the gas station by our hotel had a Cinnabon inside. We got a cinnamon roll to bring home with us and this morning, we got to eat it…
It was so good. I love cinnamon rolls. It reminded me a lot of the amazing cinnamon rolls that I used to get from Sidewinder in Northside.
Good evening from Northside…
We had spaghetti with garlic bread for dinner tonight…
I love spaghetti and garlic bread. That’s how it looks when I’m taking a photo of my spaghetti for the blog. And this is how my spaghetti looks after I take my photos and add more dust cheese right before I start eating…
After waiting for what seemed like forever, the guys from Ohio Basement Authority started working on waterproofing our basement today…
They were scheduling six to eight weeks out. And our day finally arrived. They were supposed to here this morning but the team got a flat tire on the way in from Columbus. So they got a bit of a late start. But we’re so excited that this project is finally getting started. 😀🏡❤️
