These past couple of weeks have left me verklempt (overcome with emotion). We’ve gone from tsuris (troubles)to nachas (joy) and back and forth a few times over. But hey, all is good. No kvetching (complaining) here… still quite grateful just to be… In my glass-half full world, the temples are gray, yet the mind is still childish (es iz groi di pai’eh un narish di dai’eh). Now look, sit! Enjoy some shots.
Ice crystals on the car window, early morning… sometimes, cold is beautiful. Who knew?New Years Day T-Bone… not in the plans. And in one second, the car becomes bubkas (worthless, nothing, zero)My left foot… this boot is made for walking? Oy! I needed this like I need a lochen kup (whole in my head)!Okay, we can do this! And my bubbaleh’s (little one’s) , they are better than fine ❤Blech! We had to have one more vermin sighting, right before we left… I was going to put a little chalk outline around him for management, but then I threw up (brechen) a little in my throat before I could do it…Me and my Mrs., and that smile of hers. Gets me every time! Now that’s a “we have a new home” smile! Shana punim (beautiful face)!My first cuppa in our new home… Mornin’ joeGatsby is the ruler of his domain, and after a squirrel, or a bird, or a piece of sky???
So friends, for today and this week, may you all be a mensch (decent and honorable person) and may you only run into mensches.
OMG your foot the car, I hope you are ok my lovely. So glad the girls are OK. Congratulations in your new home and I hope you will have lots of happiness and luck! Mwah 💋 Thank you for linking up to #PointShoot 📸
I am on the mend, Catie, and thankfully my girls, they didn’t even get a bruise or a scratch! What a horrifying scene… but thank you love! The new home is wonderful and we feel so grateful and hopeful. I can even get the Mrs. to laugh again! xoxoxo #pointshoot
Oh, so sorry, Lisa. But that’s just the way life is. You never know what you’re gonna get. LOL But I do love your humor and encouraging attitude about it all. Makes me 🙂 THANK YOU!
Hey Laura, don’t I know it! Just when you think all is good, WHAMMO! FInding the perspective and teachable moments is key. Laughter, even more so! I’m happy that I can make you smile! I’m smiling now as I type! xoxoxo ❤
Mmmmmmmm..that vermin looks yummy for a BBQ…😜 Your Mrs. btw has such a sweet, angelic face. A pretty smile with that too. 😊 Hope you are getting better with that leg! X.
Thank you, Ann! I agree. She is a sweetie! And, the leg is improving too! Since the move, I get to see that smile of hers way more often! And that, I like. xoxo
Great photos! Sorry about the car and your foot. If it’s any consolation we just paid the appliance repairman $70 to tell us we need a new washing machine. But on the plus side, we’re having a dinner party this weekend! Life is always full of ups and downs. May your ups be higher than you’re downs are low.
Oh dear for the smash! Hope your foots ok!? I’d be a bit pukey over a mouse find but well done for an attempted chalk drawing of humour! Thank you for linking up to the #familyfunlinky
I hope you have all the luck with the new place! That photo of you and the mrs is adorable as is Gatsby as always!!
Thank you for sharing this with us at #TriumphantTales. I hope to see you back next week!
Ahhh in your new place now! That must be so exciting. How are you enjoying it and do you prefer the area? OMG – your foot!!! So glad you are more or less in one piece you poor thing. Take care of yourself. #DreamTeam xx
In one piece and happy to be in our new home. We are in the same hood, just no longer renting and have a lot more space. Lots of steps for me and my boot. 😂 that car accident was baddddd!!! Xx 😘 #dreamteam
Oh what a two weeks you’ve had, it’s been full of ups and downs by the look of it. Hopefully the next two weeks of January pan out slightly better for you. Thanks for linking up at #fortheloveofBLOG. Claire x
Wow what a rollercoaster start to your year Lisa! Hope your foot is on the mend (ouch!) and congratulations on your new home! Thanks for linking to #DreamTeam lovely x
I am so happy you have your new home!!! Yipee! The ice crystals amaze me I have never seen them in real life. Thank you so much for sharing this with us for #ablogginggoodtime Just to let you know that sadly Catie (Spectrum Mum) will no longer be a co-host for #ablooginggoodtime, we will have a new co-host this Thursday and you can still link up through Katie or myself. Thanks, love Mackenzie
Thank you Mackenzie! We are happy too! I did read about Catie and we messaged each other. Poor thing, she has a lot in her hands ahead. 💕 I’m wishing her and her family well. Love you, Mac! 😘💕 #ablogginggoodtime
What a lovely pic of you and your partner – just lovely. You have had an eventful start to 2018 – so sorry about the accident and the foot. Good luck with the new home! xx
Thank you, Hayley! It just has to get better! I am happy to see good luck and bad luck as intertwined. The foot, as of yesterday, is now in a brace and I’m off to PT! So we are all improving. And, I agree, that is my fave pic of us! ❤ Thank you! xoxo ❤
