“And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak” I called hubby yesterday and gave him a mission; find a fruit & vegetable stand in the town he works in and bring me home some REAL tomatoes! Those are one of my favorite things about summer, haven’t had any yet and couldn’t stand it […]

I got something from Lynne last week in this post and then in the last day or so, Debi awarded me with it also in her post! Wow, y’all are being very sweet to me and I appreciate it! I’ve been gone some and am way behind on reading blogs and taking care of things […]

Ooooh, look at what’s being given away at Five Minutes for Mom! We actually saw these about a week ago while shopping in Best Buy. They look great and had a good picture too. I love that it’s flat and would fit in so many places better than one I currently have. Some lucky person […]

My meals didn’t go as planned last week, got only a portion of what I planned actually done. This week might be the same way again and I think now I seem to be saying that almost every Monday! Hubby is having an unusually erratic work schedule this summer that’s been affecting whether he’s here […]

I had the BEST time Friday on my drive to Alabama! I got to stop along the way and meet a fellow blogger in real life, Coach J. We met at a coffee shop in her town and talked for a while. She is so much fun, so cute and sweet! We talked and talked, […]

Update: On my way to see my daughter I stopped to meet……Coach J! SO much fun! More later and hopefully a picture but I don’t have my cord with me to transfer from camera to laptop. I’m going to help daughter E move from one house to a different one before school starts back up […]

This is the what I’ve been listening to for a few weeks now…… It’s the cast recording of the Broadway show, Jersey Boys (the story of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons). I’ve seen quite a few theater shows but not this one. I really hope I can see it someday. Very fun, jukebox type […]

I got something from sweet Annie, a thoughtful blogger award…..she’s way too sweet! Also Sandra gave me something similar at her site. Y’all are very thoughtful to take me along up to where you are! Other details for these can be found on this site. “For those who answer blog comments, emails, and make their […]

Just for You Elizabeth, because you asked to see a picture of Katelyn with me! Daughter E has been looking/commenting on my blog a bit lately, I think maybe she should get brownie points or something for that. 🙂 One of the reasons I started this was as a way to keep up with family […]

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 […]

I didn’t get to everything in my menu last week, plans changed as the week went along! And the same is likely to happen this week as well; hubby might not be here for dinner a couple of different nights. So I’m not putting a specific day to the things I’m trying to plan and […]

I got tagged by Sherry about a week ago for this meme of four. Was just a little busy having company, so I’m now trying to get caught up with things and blog a bit more. I’ve seen this one passing around and mine won’t be that interesting because I’ve not lived many places or […]

We took a road trip yesterday, a little change of scenery for us and Katelyn…..we drove to Jackson to go to the zoo! It was also a chance for Kathryn to see my youngest child that lives in Jackson, her brother David. Yes, it’s lovely weather here in Mississippi in the middle of July, very […]

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 […]
