Pink-A-Tude

Jack doesn’t like pink. I take most of the blame here. His dislike of pink was not fully realized until we met, knowing me turned a mild avoidance into a full fledged, screw up your face and say EEW-wah when confronted with the girlie color. I don’t look good in pink so there is my reason, Jack is just being a good husband and going along. Once when I fell in LOVE with a pair of flip flops with white big daisies ( love white daisies). He pretended right along with me those daisies were...

Jack Fixed Lights! WHOOT!

The light in the laundry room has not worked in over a year. It just went out one day and since the roof leaked in that area we attributed it to that. We fixed that section of roof and Jack got ready to fix the light in there on Sunday. Jack got the “bright” idea to switch the old light fixture in the kitchen with a new light we have been oogling and use the old kitchen light fixture in the Laundry Room…which is no longer the laundry room since we moved those appliances …Tool Room? I...

Merry Christmas: Almost Time to Make Pie!

Such a glorious morning, the kids and Daddy Jack are all in bed. I have vision of pie making dancing in my head. Our Mystery Guest, Raccoon Girl/Boy just rumbled by my window on its way to bed…wherever that is. Fresh from terrorizing the ducks in their little duck house I am guessing.  The chicken for today’s chicken soup is baking, the ham for tomorrow is defrosting as is the cookie dough, pie crust dough, and the rolly dough…let me just say dough again. Dough. Old cat Luna Marie ( 18...

Sweets & Family

Hey Honies! Friday Morning, the boys and I made 3 pans of brownies, and 1 blueberry cake. We are feeding the freezer to get baked goods done in one heating of the house. Summer here and each night I stress out the AC during peak energy usage hours making dinner. So baking in the cool of the morning and doing bulk prep for multiple dinners at that time as well is helping keep our usage from getting out of hand. Especially since the sun in shrinking the garden plants and our well pump is running...

Howdy All!  Forgive this tiny post. I have been chosen to sit on a jury which starts on Thursday with no really idea of when it will end. Could you give a little prayer for me and my Jack today? Warm Thoughts, Burning Sage, Good Vibes are as prayers in my book, just so you know. *smile* There are many paths and they are all valid, equal, and goodness filled.  We are going to a specialist doctor (pulmonologist) about my lungs and the fluid build up worsening. We went to Dr. Squishy...
