“There’ll be only happy tears..” This last week or two we’ve had several funerals to attend. One of our friends lost his father, but he’s lived a long life and they’ve rejoiced because he came to know the Lord in the last few years. Another good friend lost their grown son when he took his […]

“you put your right foot out” I saw the sun yesterday for the first time in a week I think, it was SO nice! But it was too good to last I suppose because today it’s raining again and I’m so tired of rain/clouds. I’ve basically got nothing that’s coming to mind, so I’m resorting […]

I was so glad to have a plan in place last week, and everything went pretty much accordingly. This time I’m feeling very uninspired and not wanting to cook much! I seem to swing from one end of the pendulum to the other. 😆 Here’s some things I’m thinking about having this week, but not […]

Last week we went to a business meeting in Florida that hubby attends; it’s always in different spots but this year it was held in Marco Island, Florida. It’s south of Naples and they told us it was the largest of the ten thousand islands, I didn’t know about all these islands! We spent Sunday […]

“you don’t have to be my baby” I do believe I’ve forgotten to show you my new ride! It’s not a mustang, although I’ve often thought if I ever had a second car to buzz around in a mustang could be fun. 😆 My kids have been telling me for a long time that I […]

This is the first menu I’ve done since before Christmas I think, and it feels good to actually have a plan this week! Maybe this will help me get back into a routine, something I’ve been having a hard time with this month. Thanks to Laura for hosting this each week. Check out her place […]

I guess I just thought I was back when I posted that the other day! I intended to blog this week since we were up and running but went out of town on a business trip with hubby, lugged my new laptop along but never did blog…….something in me rebelled at having to pay the […]

Our blogs have been down for a week and I just didn’t quite know what to do with myself! It’s one thing to have it available and just be busy or choose not to do it but when it’s not there, somehow the thought of it was making me loony. Thanks to my sis and […]

“these are a few of my favorite……..” Pictures from Christmas! I’ve got so many, it’s hard to decide which ones to show. In case you don’t want to be bored I’ll put them on the extended page; click through if you’re so inclined and have a few minutes. 🙂

Indeed it was a wonderful time for us this past week or so, having our kids home and much family and friends in and out to visit! A very good way to end the year. The last of them left last night. On Christmas day I think there were 16 people here to eat, open […]
