Men! I mean … MEN! I tackled a huge project in the bedroom today. Cleaned out the dressers and closet and cleaned off the tops of the dressers. The dressers looked wonderful! All that was left to do was haul the various piles to their designated new homes. Then Lynn decided to go to bed [...]

This is the beautiful bouquet of flowers sent to me by www.spotamom.com . I love them and as you can see, they have really brightened my day. We took this picture of them on the table of our motor home. Remember … you get a 15% discount if you want to send flowers to [...]

I keep them in my China Hutch instead of packing them away each year because they are so fragile now. We [...]

My dad used to have a saying that sort of fits how I’m feeling waiting for November 1st so i can start writing my novel for NaNoWriMo! “Jumpy as a fart in a hot skittle”. I’m like a race horse standing at the gate. I’m SO ready for this and want to start right now! [...]
