Louis Dean stays busy and is happiest when he has a project.
Sometimes he goes out in the back yard to get a tool or something - and then he goes down a rabbit hole and starts sorting things in his workshop - or as in lately - begins to take just about everything OUT and reorganizing it all!
He does seem to love it when I say, "Honey, I need your help!"
We all need to be needed!
We didn't even use this tree last year but it was our living room tree in 2021 and it was way too big!
Louis Dean was all smiles when I asked him what he thought about us putting in the front yard.
He can make anything happen!
We are loving it!
I think we are all happier when we are accomplishing something and what could be better than decorating for Christmas?
We may have been a little too enthusiastic, though, because we woke up late on Sunday morning and felt like we'd been run over by a herd of reindeer!
We watched Fellowship Church online - I put it on the big TV.
Pastor Ed Young interviewed legendary high school football coach Denny Duron.
We will be watching this docuseries!
I spent Sunday afternoon doing our meds and watching the Cowboys game.
Louis Dean was going to watch it with me but he got side tracked in his room.
This was our Sunday Night Supper - easy peasy and pretty healthy, too!
Monday morning!
Is it weird that Monday is my favorite day of the week?
We slept late to catch up on our sleep, so we were having our morning coffee at nearly noon!
Louis Dean is having so much fun with his cell phone!
Since he has a brand new number, it's common to get calls from people trying to contact the one who had this number before. SO - instead of saying 'Hello', he answers, "Ajax Liquor Store!"
He gets such a kick when his phone rings!
Today, we put another tree together - this one going on the front porch!
We bought it after Christmas last year and I have been looking forward to seeing it!
Louis Dean is handier than a pocket on a shirt!
Cleaning, packing up fall, decorating and baking........
our days are full of all sorts of good things!

ReplyDeleteThe tree out front makes me want to put up some lights - but we are having some MUCH needed rain today. Love hearing the sound on the metal top of the fireplace!
ReplyDeleteI'll email you and catch up - not a lot happening, just a bit tired and trying to figure out a few things.
Much love being sent to Texas...
Happy Thanksgiving to You and Louis Dean, may blessings be abundant! Jody N.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! If you enjoy football, you might like "Kelce" on Amazon Prime, and "Quarterback' on Netflix. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!

I love the look of pure joy on Louis Dean's face while he's fixing your beautiful trees. Makes my heart sing.
ReplyDeleteLove the saying about him being as handy as a shirt pocket..Exactly!!!
And my Dear Linda, keep trying to do the things you want to do and not get tired. Pace your self..this may be a new season in your lives...I'm also giving that advice to myself too.

Your trees are lovely....the Texas star is the perfect touch for that tree top!
ReplyDeleteLinda, Your sweet LD puts a smile on my face. Just seeing how happy he was about the tree and liquor store recording. Hard working and a great sense of humor. Love that. I bet your home smells so good with the baking. Happy Thanksgiving to all. Love all of you. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
