Good morning from Northside…


I had creamy chicken noodle sup for lunch today…

Mack and I played in the backyard for a bit…



And we had grilled cheeses for dinner…






And thank you notes are the best…

Here’s another photo of our new little side yard…

And our new little garden hose post…


Good morning from Northside…


The sky was so hazy again this morning…


We walked to get coffees from Sidewinder…




When we were out in Duck, I got this huge tub of cheese balls. And today with lunch, I ate the very last cheese ball…

It was kind of hazy all day long…


Good evening from Northside…


For dinner tonight, Genifer made the autumn sausage veggie & apple sheet pan.
It’s one of our favorites…


And it’s actually starting to feel like autumn again. ๐๐โค๏ธ

The sun looked pretty this morning as it rose over Northside…

It kinda looked like something out of Star Wars or a sci-fi film…


The hazy sun was probably still because of the wildfires out west.
Good morning from Northside…


It was too dark to get a decent photo of it last night. But we took one of our old fence posts, and turned it into a hanger for our garden hose…


I saw something similar on Pinterest and thought it would be a neat idea because I could never really figure out what to do with our hose.

Good evening from Northside…

The skies were still pretty hazy this evening…

And we had an NYPD calzone party tonight. We’ve been all about the NYPD lately…


Genifer had just pepperoni in her calzone. I had sausage, ham and green olives in mine. And we shared a small french fry…



YUM! NYPD is so good.
And here’s one more photo of our new hose post…

Later this evening, we finished watching the second season of Cobra Kai. It was really good. We can’t wait for the next season to see what happens. It’s always tough to figure out what to watch next after you finish a season of something. ๐๐กโค๏ธ

Hello from Northside. It was a Monday. ๐๐โค๏ธ

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…

We were pretty lazy today…

Good morning from Northside…


We made a Home Run Inn oven pizza for lunch…


I think Home Run Inn makes on the best frozen pizzas around.
And it turned out to be a pretty nice day…


Good evening from Northside…


And we had an NYPD hoagie party for dinner. Again..


We’ve been all about the NYPD lately. We like it a lot. ๐๐๐๐ฅชโค๏ธ

Good morning from Northside…



After our walk, we walked to get Sidewinder coffee…





And good evening from Northside…


It’s hard to believe that today marks the 19th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on September 11th…

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. ๐๐กโค๏ธ

I saw a news article this morning that said smoke from wildfires in Oregon and California has already made its way to Greater Cincinnati…

The midwest won’t see the orange haze like cities along the west coast, but the
high-altitude smoke could lead to intense sunsets. The National Weather Service in Cleveland on Wednesday said the wildfire smoke in the upper atmosphere had made
it to the Midwest, Great Lakes and Ohio Valley, leading to hazy and “grayish skies.”
I thought I noticed the skies looking a little hazy lately. I noticed it more yesterday morning than today. But I guess the skies this morning looked a little hazy too…


Good morning from Northside…



I could notice it more closer to the horizon. It just looked a little muddy.
This evening it was just kind of cloudy and overcast…

And good evening from Northside…





We’ll have to keep an eye on the skies and see if it continues to seem hazy. ๐๐โ๏ธโค๏ธ

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. ๐๐๐ฎ๐กโค๏ธ
