I think I'm a cloud lover.


Today was a slow Monday for even the cows...




Devin said his fall lasted about 2 minutes as the plane climbed higher for a small extra cost. Twenty people were on the plane to jump along with the 20 professional jumpers. They jumped in the Tampa area.  He said when you are in and surrounded by clouds you can't see anything.

go-pro camera does a great job!

 Dinner...

salad


sweet potato, grilled pork chop and spinach

SUNDAY


Not sure what was on fire...it was put out quickly.


Devin sent me this photo after he and his wife skydived. This was to show me they lived thru it!

i told him i didn't approve
😱
30 seconds of pure terror
they look like they enjoyed it

Connor got contact lenses...Good-looking either way I say...


Chris and I went shopping at Whole Foods. Since Lucky's closed we are looking for another place to shop.  I guess we will be seeing more of these electrical charging stations as electric cars become more popular.


We had Whole Foods sushi for lunch...


Pretty flower from Chris' yard.


Left a chicken in the slow cooker...

TGIF


Yep it's cold and windy...


Last of the produce ready for packing lunch and my green drink...


Garbanzo beans in Instant Pot...


The garbanzo bean water is called Aquafaba...health nuts use this in making whipped cream and other foods like this. I was surprised to see you can buy the liquid separately...It seems to me you could just buy a can and use the beans and then use the liquid. 😏


People who know me...know when I say my fridge is empty..I really am not exaggerating.


Elvin is helping Devin work on his wife's car...replacing struts...

Elvin hates cold weather

Dinner...
