Here’s hop­ing the most dif­fi­cult deci­sion you have to make in the new year is whether to say “two thou­sand and ten” or “twenty-ten”. Yeah. That kind of year.
Safe new years eve and the hap­pi­est of new years to you and yours!!
Thanks for tun­ing in…see you next year!

EAT YOUR VEGGIES

December 30th, 2009

My hus­band and I just had to laugh today when we looked out­side and noticed that the horses hay bale, intact, was lay­ing off to the side.
This last year the per­son we nor­mally get our hay from had his fields flood out twice, which meant he had to plow them under so we didn’t get any […]

SPEAKING OF SNOW.…

December 29th, 2009

You know, I like snow. It is why I don’t make my hus­band pack up and move to warmer lands. That and a few other things but still, I gen­er­ally like snow.
That is until this last bliz­zard. Not only did it occur dur­ing the Christ­mas hol­i­day week, which wrecked many a plan, but it dumped so […]

I got the call at about 2 in the morn­ing that mom had died. I had been anticipating […]

THE LITTLEST ANGEL

December 20th, 2009

It has been a favorite book for many years, one that I have been able to take out of moth­balls now that I have grand­kids to once again read.  Not this year.
Yes­ter­day, a mother not far from here,  on her way to some­where, was broad­sided. Her 5 year old and 17 month old sons were killed. […]

Rant #2

So just because I’m on a roll.…. a read in the paper the other day that a cer­tain some­one, who must not be named but whose ini­tials are S.P., is now known as a “very suc­cess­ful book author”. Really. Won­der what the per­son who helped her write almost all of the book and whom she […]
