My husband is on vacation this week, his first break from doctoring since March... . . . Apparently, the stress of these past few months have not affected his dad joke skills. . . If you have a good one to throw back at him, leave it in the comments below!!! If it involves fruit puns, even better! . . . #baddadjokes #dadjokes #cantaloupe #cantaloupe🍈 #hedabs #vacationmodeon #vacationmodeon😎 #brainbreak #mentalhealthbreak #2020life #myhusband #okayitsfunny #funnyjokes #sopunny #sopunnyithurts #welaughed #groan #lifewithhim #lol #lolz #funnydads #funnyhunny #badpuns #badpunsfordays #laughoutloud #mymidlife #midlifemusings #convoswithkaren #letschat #marriedalongtime

One of many reasons to love living on the lake! When we built this house, we looked forward to retiring here in ten years.... little did I know that it would become my safe haven in 2020. . . I love having the space, the quiet calm of nature (which is actually not quiet at all as I listen to birds and wind in the leaves), and dramatic sunsets. . . . I think these past several months would have been much harder in our townhouse with views of construction — and the noise that goes with it. . . . Today, I am grateful. How about you? What’s been a blessing you didn’t expect this year? . . #blessings #hiddenblessings #hiddenblessings2020 #perspectiveiseverything #midlifeperspective #midlifejourney #midlifeblogger #midlifeinfluencer #midlifeinfluencers #midlifewomen #sunsetsofinstagram #sunsetsky #sunsetmadness #sunsetshots #reflectionshots #water_of_our_world #cloudsofinstagram #reflectionstories #pondering #ponderinglife #thatsmyview #whereilive #southcarolinaliving #lakewateree #saharandust #glorioussunset #sunsetchasers #quietreflection #peacefulwater #calmwaters

The celebration continues!!! Rob brought @therealbandnerd beautiful flowers for her Sweet Sixteen with the fam — lame but it is what it is. The flowers are gorgeous though. . . . And tonight, it’s grilled pizza, chocolate chip cookies in lieu of cake and a game of cards. . . . And she is okay with that, overall. But she misses her friends! . . #happybirthday #sweetsixteen #flowers🌸 #celebrate #celebrateeveryday #shesallgrownup #traderjoes #traderjoesflowers #flowersforever #herbouquet #daddyslittlegirl #daddysgirl😘 #ourgirl #purpleflowers #pinkandpurple #beautifulbouquet #happybirthdaytoyou #happybirthdaytoyou❤ #weloveyou #allgrownup
