Gracie Video + Freebie

As I was telling you all, Jack and I went grocery shopping last Saturday and so did everyone else! Most folks just showed up to block the isles and chat. We could not find a parking space in a Walmart that doesn’t have that much traffic EVEN at Christmas! We started noticing shortages, so I took pictures. Some shortages were from the many needs of the shoppers there, stocking up,  but some were because the food did not arrive at the store This was the Meat Dept. Breakfast Cereal I can’t...

Good Morning ALL! The sun made an appearance over the weekend and I am overjoyed! WHOO HOO! Even though I spent most of my time at the computer and I am happy to report I finished the February Toolbox and sent it off to my quality checkers. ( Thanks SO much Mattie and Carlie!) Who jumped right on it, ( told them not to…they no listen!) so SWEET! When I wasn’t at the computer this weekend, I was grocery shopping with every Texan and their Uncle Block D. Isle and walking Foster Gracie, who...

Be Still My Heart

Hey y’all! The x-rays  from yesterday were not pretty, but better. Again I feel so much healthier than those pictures look! I say that and Jack just rolls his eyes! HOOT! Today’s weather reminds me of Mexico City the summer I visited. A balmy 73 degrees, sunny and a slight breeze. We visited Chapultepec Park, climbing the hill and to Chapultepec Castle then we walked and walked. Its a big park. There were vendors selling all kinds of things, my Mexican friends Miguelito and Riza made...

The Amazing Miss Gracie

   Our family said, “Yes!” to Fostering Great Dane Gracie. ( link is to pictures, not for the faint of heart) She has got some injuries and is malnourished. Healthy Rescue Danes get most of the breaks…its the sick ones that no one wants. We take those.  Maybe there is an adoptable dog down deep in this girl, if not she can stay with us. She is cute as a bug even at 80 lbs. She is a small-ish dane and so I would estimate 97-100lbs will be all she needs when she is back up to her true...

  Making Pies today! Weee! I like to do this earlier than  the day before the big feed, but you know sometimes I just have to be thankful for being able to make them at all and smile smile smile!  Nathan informed me at a shopping trip a few weeks back that he doesn’t like pie. He is a cake man. Okay, its a blow, but I can handle it. At least we agree that Brownies are universal common ground. Today’s Pies will be Mincemeat, Pumpkin, and Chocolate Cream. I will also be attempting a cake...

Errand Day

I really screwed up this time! I scheduled a cleaning and an ortho appointment for each child today each so close together and two cities apart there was no time for error. Fail. Of course one went over and all had to be rescheduled. It made for a long day and one will still have to wait for another time. What patient children I have. Dillon in the chair… I DID find some great stuffs at the grocery, our last stop before home. Phew! Errand Day kicks my booty! Couldn’t resist buying...
