Father's Day is this coming Sunday! Have you taken care of your dad? Yes, your dad! I'm speaking mostly to the ladies of my age who have a senior citizen dad who is retired.

We always see lots of gift ideas for dads of the younger set but why not one for our own dads? My dad is 88 and he doesn't want an i-pad! Today I am sharing 17 practical gift ideas for the retired dad, because we should remember them and their unique tastes and needs.

Time seems to be flying by around here. It is the tenth of the month and you know what that means. Yes it is time for me to join my friends on Ten on the Tenth for another project. This time we have gotten together to share flower related ideas. Last month we shared beauty and fashion ideas.

Today I am sharing photos of 12 varieties of stunning flowers that grow in my neighborhood. Now if there is one thing you, my regular readers, know about me, it's that I have a brown thumb. I am terrible at keeping things alive. So when this idea came along I really struggled with it.

Be sure to scroll all the way down to see what my blogging friends came up with this month.

How To Create A Command Center for your Dog

Some of you may know that we've had a new addition to our household. Actually you should all know since I've been showing off my Mother's Day gift every chance I get. It's a Labrador puppy and we have named him Tatou.

Yes Tatou has taken over our lives and our home. It is littered with puppy toys and leashes, schedules and you name it. Things were all over the place till I remembered that I had a piece of plywood and decided to do some housecleaning.

It was time to take matters into my DIY hands and create a command center for my dog! I never in a million years expected to be doing a project like this. Haha!
