I'm back again today with another #SentimentalSunday post, featuring more scans of Mom and Aunt Mary, from about the 1930s to the 1960s First up though, here's the updated list of all the posts I've done so far this month with my family scans - Throwback photo posts April 2nd, 2020 - Thirteen Throwback Thursday...

Re-editing some of the photos from my 2017 Calendar with PicMonkey
In 2016 I put together a calendar for the year 2017, featuring pictures I'd taken each month (I did a post with all the photos HERE). Back then, I was trying to do the least amount of photo editing possible, having gotten the impression somewhere that any kind of adjustment (even exposure) took away from... Continue Reading →
For a #FeatheredFriends Friday – Five Phoebe Photos
The other day when I was out with Freddie, I managed to snap about a half dozen photos of one of the Phoebes who hangs out around our house every spring. However, only two of the captures were in focus, so I decided to also include a few older shots, newly edited, so I'd have... Continue Reading →
More Thirteen Throwback Thursday Photos – Aunt Mary and Mom
I'm back again, just like last Thursday and the Thursday before that (with a few Sentimental Saturdays and Sundays for good measure!) with more Thirteen Throwback Thursday photos! These are scans of old school photos from my Mom and Aunt Mary's side of the family. In fact, since I'm gathering such a number of these... Continue Reading →
A Wednesday Walk with Freddie on April 14th 2020
I realized the other day that I haven't done a Wednesday Walk post since last year! So I decided yesterday, after many days of blustery spring weather, that it was high time I took a stroll around the yard with my camera. First I took Sandy out for his morning constitutional, then I came back... Continue Reading →
Tarot Tuesday reading for the week of April 14th 2020
Welcome to another one of my Tarot Tuesday posts! I started doing these free readings monthly back in late 2015, then switched to every week in early 2016. They're by far my most popular posts, as well as being one of my favorites to put together. Today's reading is for the week of April 14th... Continue Reading →
For #MicroblogMondays – Some pics of the Full Pink Super Moon on April 7th 2020
I was lucky enough that the weather (and my body) cooperated enough last week for me to snag almost 80 shots of the Full Pink Super Moon on April 7th 2020. Since scanning and editing my family photos is taking much more time than I anticipated (you'd think I'd know better by now...lol), I decided... Continue Reading →
For #SentimentalSunday – Easter over the years (1940s to 2000s)
I'm back with more scans of family photos over a few generations. Some of these are from my #SteemBloPoMo Day 18 post last year, (which this year has been re-imagined as #HiveBloPoMo) and some I scanned & edited over the past couple of days. They are essentially in order from my mom and Aunt Mary... Continue Reading →
Mostly #SilentSaturday – My #FeatheredFriends Crow with the Deep Dream Generator
Today hubby finally got the chance to pull my computer apart (a fan started sounding wonky a few weeks back), clean it all up, and upgraded it to Windows 10 in the process. As with all things computer, it took longer than expected (I have a bunch of file housekeeping to do), so I wasn't... Continue Reading →
#FeatheredFriends Crow Visit From March 2017
When I was outside with our dog Sandy this morning, I heard "my" crows calling to each other somewhere in the woods. It occurred to me I haven't seen them hanging around close to the house for some time now (especially since I haven't been tossing out day old raisin toast from hubby's work lunch...

Thirteen Throwback Thursday Photos Times Two – Mom and Aunt Mary
I'm back again, just like last Thursday, with more Throwback Thursday photos! This time I have Thirteen Times Two (fancy alliterative way of saying 26...lol) scans of old school photos from my Mom and Aunt Mary's side of the family. As I said before (I'm being lazy since I'm a bit bleary-eyed after all the... Continue Reading →
