Sunday dinner: BBQ Pork belly. I don’t typically eat pork. However, I had a craving for it, so I have learned not to deny myself what I want, but to eat it in moderation when I have a certain craving. Sunday, February 16, 2025. Photo Credit: Tremaine L. Loadholt

The weekend always passes by so quickly. It’s as though it is trying to leave before we can tell it how much we love and need it. I think if I start giving it a bit more money to coax it to be my forever partner, it’ll probably stay put. I doubt it, though. It’s like a rolling stone–so many hats, so many homes outside of mine.
Have a fantastic week ahead, beautiful people! Peace and blessings!
Haven’t you gotten your copy of my new book: a collection of serial tales & flash fiction, Séduire (E-Book and Paperback) yet?
Zumi Tye (my Red-Footed Tortoise) has created its very own jacuzzi. Lol!
I mean . . . I should not be surprised by the fact that I have two pets with such amazing personalities, but I am often surprised by how incredibly adjusted Zumi has become over these last 10 months.
If this doesn’t bring you a bit of joy today, you may need to check your pulse.

It was a lovely weekend. I’m glad I could truly enjoy spending time with my mom. I did quite a bit of reading, watered my plants, cooked, and loved on my personality-filled pets. Here’s hoping you had a great weekend, and that the week is being kind to you, too.

I am grateful for laughter and all the things that help me grow.

I am sharing a few photos from my walks with Jernee from Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. Don’t worry, I was NOT outside with her long. We were out long enough for her to do what she needed to do each time and we came back inside immediately after our adventures into the wild, wild, winterland.

A Saturday morning glimpse of snow and ice “around my way” #3. Walking around this part of my neighborhood is where it became tricky for my baby girl, Jernee. I had to pick her up and walk to the overpass where there is a hill and some covered area (patchy dirt and grass) that was protected from all this mess. Photo Credit: Tremaine L. Loadholt

Friday afternoon as Old Man Winter began his swoop into our neighborhood. See my little blue, compact Chevy Spark? Its name is Solo. I love that little car so much! Photo Credit: Tremaine L. Loadholt
Old Man Winter decided to shake his soul loose this past Friday and Saturday morning. And when he did, he only graced us with about two inches of snow and the rest was sleet, which led to ice and hazardous road conditions.
I stayed my hind-end at home the entire weekend because I have seen HOW these folks drive and witnessed my share of accidents. Black ice doesn’t care who you are, how you drive, or where you’re from.
It’s slicker than oil, and I want no parts of it!
I hope Sunday will be more than kind to all of you. And if you are in the areas affected by this winter storm, stay warm, dry, and safe.
