COVID-19: Week 10

Welcome to Week 10 at the Wesley Household!

What Are We Doing This Week?

Being kind as we are going stir crazy: We appreciate Jason working hard just to keep us taken care of in this madness! He deserves all the red roses he wants. We got them from our own backyard:)

This cracks me up every time! She is so light that the blower pushes her across the pool! I always wanted one of those tiny workout pools with high powered jets for swimming laps...she can do that with a normal pool blower. hahaha

Although the work hours are ridiculous during quarantine, it is nice to be able to see him during the day!

I taught the human Bear how to do a sudoku puzzle quickly and she took it to her room and figured it out. The first one was getting messy so she labeled "Ella's second attempt" on another one! This kid is impressive and sadly got my spelling issues!

We are GROWING like a weed. Look at those pants. She is also biking alongside of my 1 mile run days so we are still getting in those workouts!

Saying farewell to school for the summer time: this was def different but we appreciate the thoughtfulness put in to keep everyone as safe as possible!

Washing machine at the house broke and we decided to buy a new one. THANKS SO MUCH JESSE AND PATRICK FOR POSTING ON FB THAT YOU WERE GETTING RID OF YOUR OLD WASHER! Look at that smile though...how could a spouse be mad at that face?

And then there was a YouTube video of a cheap truck and foolishness...so that's how we ended up here. Less than $50 for a "new"old washing machine. Cheers to it lasting a few years b/c that would make him so happy and I won't notice the difference if it turns on and off without flooding our carport!

Thank you Gram Eileen and Paw Paw Sam for the awesome wind chime! We will let you know when it has a final spot...this could take awhile.

Sometimes before you're even fully awake you just have to dance it off in the hallway to get the day started!

How to enter a room

Finished an 8 week running interval and decided to start it again instead of bump up. Workout 1 I improved my pace by 40 seconds Whoohoo!

If you can't have a real cellphone, you can make your own!

Date night on the patio included multiple interruptions by the Bear. She assumes if she isn't talking it isn't intrusive so she started writing things on a white board. Uhm, no.

Who published a story about me and Jason without asking?!

She keeps putting me on hold for episode 1: I am just the editor so I have no control.

"Look it's a quadropus...GET IT? LIKE AN OCTOPUS BUT WITH 4 LEGS!" Got it, Bear, very clever. Face mask fun.

Happy Birthday Gram Ruth! We hope you enjoyed your day and we are sorry that we couldn't celebrate like we wanted to!

What Are We Eating This Week?

Potato pizzas again so the human Bear is showing Jason how to use the immersion blender. Thanks Esther:)

Texas Caviar: black eyed peas, bell peppers, avocados, red onions, homemade greek dressing

Carport visits and time to sneak in the food that doesn't go in our house:)

All that stuff one day and it seems to be gone before you even know it!

Walnut and lentil tacos with veggies in lettuce wraps

Damn it, I have to put my mask back on b/c they forgot the sour cream!

Almost all the colors of the rainbow! Pretty

Yard Update

Edible flowers are in full bloom!

Date Night! Looks very different but we are thankful for our time and this space.

I don't know what this is but it's pretty!

She ALWAYS knows where the camera is...always!

Planting Things!

Thanks Meagan for the extra goodies: black eyed susans, lilies, and daisies

So many "friends" in the pool every morning!

Week 11: here we come...or here we stay! We miss people and hope you are all staying well:)
