Well, we are 3 days into the new year. Not a whole lot of winter weather and I am hoping that we don’t get much. It seems as I get older the less I enjoy the snowy winter days.
Hopefully this year will be much better than the last one. This past December was one of [...]

This is written with a very heavy heart. I have been silent in my grief. I do not have enough words to describe how it feels when you lose someone who is so much like your own child.
Our family met Tara when our youngest was in 2nd grade. One day she asked if she could [...]

I am sitting here listening to the wind whip around the house. The little one came home from work and said that it was rain mixed with real big flakes of snow. Oh joy!! I am so not ready for winter.
Thursday I will have to head a bit north to take my father to his [...]

By the post below you can probably tell that I have kept the majority of that bottled up inside for quite sometime – ok, about a month to be fair. Sometimes you just have to let it out and not keep holding it in. I definitely think that by holding in stressful things and not [...]

Up early so thought I would jot a quick turkey day greeting. Turkey is in the oven. And I am headed back up to my bed for a couple more hours of much needed sleep.
Just wanted to drop in for a moment and say that I will be posting sometime in the next couple of [...]
Quiet Sunday
This is a quiet Sunday afternoon. The girls are out with Papa and the rest of that side of their family to go eat at Mongolian Bar-b-q. I don’t expect them home for dinner so sweet hubby and I will probably either eat leftovers or make sandwiches. I don’t feel much like rustling up a [...]

Well, it is a little cooler today than it has been the last 2 days but still warm enough to be outside without a coat. As far as I am concerned this could go on till December or January – I really have no use for cold temperatures and that wet white stuff that just [...]

Yes, today I felt that chill in the air that usually hits about a few weeks before snow flies. I don’t like to feel it as it gives me an ache in my bones and a deep desire to snuggle under something warm and not leave the house. But today I left the house anyway [...]
