Blogtember Thursday, Sept 5

I saw this on my daughter's blog, http://www.kjaggers.com/ this morning and thought it looked like a fun thing to do, so I am joining up with http://storyofmylifetheblog.blogspot.com/ for the rest of the month.

 Thursday, September 5: Pass on some useful advice or information you learned and always remembered:


If I could give everyone, one piece of advice, it would have to be - Never back up a vehicle any further than you absolutely have too. This would stop a lot of accidents.  

Another piece of advice my precious grandmother always said was, "Never easedrop, You will never hear anything good about yourself. "

Always treat others the same way you would want to be treated. 

Love unconditionally and regardless!

Goodbye, my dear little friend,

Lazy day!

Slow, easy, lazy day today. 

Going to meet Don at the gym later. We have been going almost everyday. We are working out on the weights, which I love.

Dinner tonight is going to be easy. 

My favorite pork tenderloin recipe

and making Kisha's green beans, (my favorite)

Kisha's green beans

I have the bacon fried, onions cut and garlic chopped. I have the tenderloin coated and ready to go in the oven. As soon as we get home from the gym, everything will be ready in 30 minutes. A great dinner thats easy to make when in a hurry if all preparations are already taken care of. 

Adding some onions, tomatoes, and cucumbers in an italian dressing to finish off dinner. 

Hope everyone is having a great day.
