We took dinner in to our neighbors tonight. Lynn made his absolutely mouth watering delicious honey chicken to serve over wild rice with sides of steamed veggies and cold fruit. He tripled the recipe so that we could eat some and even have left overs. We delivered the meal to the folks next door and [...]
We’ve been remembering … and remembering … those we love who are gone, those we love who aren’t gone … those we love who have loved and fought for their country both through wars, and through righteous living and hard work. This week the motor home was meticulously washed and waxed by Angi and Steve [...]
Visits to the dentist now days are a snap compared to visits to the dentist when I was a little girl in the 1950’s. I had a root canal today and was actually relaxed during the entire process. I didn’t even feel the needle as he put my tooth, lip, nose, and cheek to [...]
I was honored to be highlighted today on Grandma’s Brief’s, an awesome blog by Lisa, a grandmother with a successful blog full of information to do with being grandparents. Actually, it is full of information for everyone and has links to just about anything you can imagine to do with a family. I love blogs [...]
The family room carpet looks awesome!!! Double digit, awe inspiring awesomely clean! I will have to take the samples back to the carpet place now and tell them I changed my mind. I just saved $1100.00 that we didn’t have. Oh the joy! AND … that isn’t all … !!! My favorite lazy-boy recliner is [...]

That mean old March wind gusted fiercely the other night and uprooted a sweet little tree that blossomed beautifully in our neighborhood every Spring. With its roots broken and exposed, it didn’t have a chance of recovery, but in one last burst of energy it gave the neighborhood one last gift of delicate, fragrant blossoms. [...]
Lynn’s working on my musing space … in the room we had to pack a lot of boxes in before we went on our six month “Drive About”. When we got home we didn’t have anyplace to put the boxes so they have stayed there until this week and I haven’t had my musing space. [...]
We took the motor home into town yesterday to get the propane tank filled. Just climbing into my “shotgun” seat and buckling up my seatbelt got my adrenaline pumping and my heart yearning to hit the freeway for parts unknown! Honestly, I think I have uncovered a well of gypsy blood inside of me! Every [...]
I spent the evening browsing through family blogs … my kids and the nieces and nephews … What fun! It brings back so many memories of raising my own family when I read the clever things the children say and the struggles the mothers have to keep everything under control. Sometimes it doesn’t seem very [...]
