Progressing So Nicely

Nicole Beadwright decided to join me in entering the Michael's art store London competition and here is her beautiful entry. Best of luck Nicole!



I found this package of gluten free mac and cheese clearing at Walmart the other day and decided to try it. Son K quite liked it. But I didn't see anymore after that.



There is a nice young pharmacist at my drugstore that I will occasionally talk to.  I asked him how his newly married life was going and how long has it been now?  I was surprised to learn it had already been 2 years!  He told me he was waiting to move into his new home but there is some kind of construction delay due to some strikes they are having.  It is a new-build townhouse with a double car garage which he really wanted.  I told him I was very happy for him.  It's nice to hear of young couples progressing so nicely in life!  Apparently these past two years they have been living in one of their parents' homes.

I got a one car garage with a door so tiny even my little sedan might have trouble getting in. So we just use it as a spare storage space

I have a nice young couple living in this (me) parent's home. Very common now. Prices are so high compared to earnings.

I also like seeing young people doing well. Makes me think of my early years and what a struggle it can be.

I very much enjoy Nicole's art! Your picture of the mac n cheese is really nice, it has a great balance. I'm glad the couple is doing well.

I have never eaten gluten-free products and wonder how it tastes.
Good luck to the pharmacist and his wife. There is nothing better than owning your own home.

Nicole's art makes me think of a closeup of some type of bird's eye. very nice work she's done. hope you both do well in the competition. sorry about the mac & cheese. good luck to your friends. hope they enjoy their new home together. have a great night...

One of the things that was hard to adjust too at the Villa is not having a garage. Downsizing is hard enough, but trying to find space in a small compartment on the balcony has been a challenge. But the good certainly out numbers the bad here.

Gigi this one tasted pretty much like KD

I like Nicole's art - either a tree trunk or a birds' eye is what I saw.

Tim used to get that brand and make it up himself. Or I would. We called it our crappy mac 'n' cheese. But in a good way. We used to get a crappy pizza brand too. But those were a looooooong time ago, back when the world was flat.
