More Than A Song

Last night I was upstairs on the computer, talking on the phone and happily reading/commenting on blog posts when out of the blue the lights went out. I was talking to hubby on the phone and told him it was darker than dark, I couldn’t even see my hand in front of my face. You […]

We finally made it home late Saturday evening and I slept really good in MY bed! Sunday is just always busy around here so I’m needing to regroup today and get some things done. I’m heading to the store in a few minutes for much needed groceries and hope I can get home before it […]

I’ve still been sticking to my walking every morning, by myself mostly which I still am not fond of! But it helps that I go to the small city park with a walking track because if I go in the mornings around 8ish there are so many other people out there doing the same thing. […]

I’ve been sewing for about the last two days, I’m not through but I think I’m going to have to quit before I Lose.My.Mind! When I sew I tend to get nothing else done, no housework at all, no computer, no reading and barely any meals. I wanted to get everything for Kathryn finished this […]

“Room to make her big mistakes” Blog friend Robin posted a picture of her sewing area, her creative space. And asked for others to post theirs too……although mine isn’t nearly as neat, organized and all pretty like hers. But just for fun, this is where I sew……

Well not me, but both of us did! I made a plate of nachos over the weekend for us to eat while we watched movies. Don ate most of it really and if you knew him you’d know that’s something he can do, eat like a bottomless pit and not gain weight. (There is no […]

Last year I needed new sandals and found these Yellow Box ones that I loved! I needed brown and black so decided to buy them both because I’m silly like that. See what they looked like new……SO cute huh! I thought they were pretty cute and I loved wearing them. I wore those brown ones […]

A few weeks ago we went to Alabama one weekend to help our daughter move, she’s still in school there and had to move from one house to a different one with a new roommate. The new house is just a bit smaller but it is very new and a nice place. As I said […]

We had a very busy fun filled weekend! I’m a bit tired but still have tons to do yet. Friday evening we had friends over for burgers with all the trimmings, ice cream and a movie afterward. We watched Letters From Iwo Jima…..it’s similar to the story of Flags of Our Fathers but told from […]

I visited North Carolina last month and this past week daughter Kathryn and her Katelyn visited me, as lots of you have heard! I’m sure you’re sick of pics by now but I’m doing a few more. I noticed on both visits that they have a routine, or rather K does, that she likes to […]

How in the WORLD do all you chickadees out there do it? You’re moms & grandmoms, with kids and jobs and you cook, clean, etc. AND blog too! I don’t know how you do it. Daughter Kathryn and her Katelyn are visiting me this week, they’ve been here since Saturday night and I find that […]

Yesterday I blogged about all the corn being grown this year in Mississippi. That corn is the kind that’s used for grain, feed, fuel, etc. and the post is here. It’s not used for eating I don’t think. But there is a large farming operation not too far away from us that grows sweet corn, […]

I live in the Mississippi delta, an area several hundreds miles long, very flat and very agricultural. Here it’s ALL about the farming and cotton has always been king, until this year maybe. For the first time, in almost forever, more farmers have planted corn than cotton. I think there might be several reasons, maybe […]

This is something else I bought for myself at Target last week……….something to put/dock my iPod in so I could play music in the house without having to put on earphones! I think I’ve actually been using my iPod more this way. Been thinking about getting something like this for a while and really had […]

I’ve gotten in the habit of carrying my digital camera with me everywhere…never know when you might want to take a picture! I grabbed it the other night to take when I rode in the golf cart with Don and afterwards we were going to a farm to check a job. The main thing I […]
