Do all toddlers and little kids have big imaginations at times? I think I might remember that Grayson or Ava Clair talked about imaginary friends or people some, Grayson might have talked about dinosaurs that way because he loves them so much. We saw Katelyn at her house right before they moved, then they went […]

Be sure to check out 5 minutes for books for some good book reviews and today they are starting a new monthly carnival, What’s on your nightstand? My nightstand usually does have books on it because I tend to read at night a lot, a very guilty pleasure for me! Just this weekend I finished […]

“gotta run for shelter, gotta run for shade” It’s too hot here to do much of anything! With 100 degree temps I tend to stay inside, or run for the shelter of the movie theater! We don’t go to a lot of movies but have been to two (count ’em 2) in the last 3 […]

“gotta get me home to my baby’s side” My car has a camera on the back and when you’re in reverse you can see what’s on the ground back behind your car, like a bike, wagon or garbage can but I haven’t had any of those things happen yet! I use my mirrors mostly but […]

“with a big black horse and a Cherry tree” 1. I’ve not gotten back to walking regularly since my achilles tendon injury and I’m tired of feeling sluggish. I think I’m going to try to ease back into it gradually with lots of stretching, maybe some new shoes, and see what happens. In the meantime, […]

Especially in a small town! There is no recycling here at all, nothing curbside and no where to take papers or bottles and such. It’s hard to find ways to do things that might help out. We’ll never be featured for our innovative programs! When my w*lmart store had some reusable shopping bags for sale […]

“there’s only one place they call me one of their own” For about a month now daughter Elizabeth has been home for a bit taking a class and getting ready to move to Jackson. I’ve really enjoyed having her here and being company for me while hubby works 15-16 hour days during the summer! She […]

“we all scream for ice cream” I have a bad habit; I love to eat ice cream in the summer time! I would have it for supper at night, except there are people in this house that don’t think it’s a meal. Usually I buy the same flavor almost the whole summer and it almost […]

I have this slow cooker that I use quite frequently, sometimes 2-3 times a week. It’s getting quite old but works just fine; something my mom gave me many years ago. It’s not exactly a crockpot but I have certain things I really prefer to cook in it. It looks like this: I used it […]

“that leads to your door” The trip between my house and Charlotte is a long one! And could be even longer with the 2 year old that came back with us because we made a few more stops than normal. We had to find a McD*nalds that had a place play for lunch, sometimes not […]

“No time to say hello, good-bye, I’m late, I’m late, I’m late.” My house looks like a bomb went off in it! So I need to make a date to clean today…..and I need a normal week with not much else going on. I thought I would get around to blog visiting when I got […]

“Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da ” I’m home, extremely tired, behind on blogs and will try to catch up soon! The car was packed with not an inch of extra room, the trip was very long too. We only brought home 2 of Kathryn’s 5 boxes of […]

I’ve been thinking for a few weeks that I might should make another quick trip to North Carolina before the kids moved back. It would be a good time for Elizabeth to go with me and Kathryn thought we could help keep the kids occupied for them. So this past weekend when E got through […]
