After going through so much to get Jesse dressed up, he didn’t get to complete his task. He wanted to hand out candy to the trick or treaters that came to my sisters house. I knew it was a long shot. We live so far out, and are pretty much the only people to live […]

I am always shopping for new rings. I prefer them to be silver and if it is with a gemstone, I want peridot. I do not have much jewelry for other parts of my body, and I want some. I think toe rings are absolutely cute and I have always liked the looks of anklets. […]

I forgot all about Jesse going home with my sister tonight. She called earlier to see what time she could pick him up and let me know that she’s throwing him a surprise Halloween picnic. (He loves picnics, so we always call anything we do a picnic for him.) She asked if I could dress […]

I am realizing that the better I take care of my skin, the better the results are. I have started and am keeping up with a routine each day to help my skin look better and prevent future wrinkles. I like the fresh skin care products at Skin Dimensions. You can purchase skin care kits […]

Keith is a little upset with his employer. They made it mandatory that no employees wear jewelry while at work, including wedding bands. Keith had to take his off or not go back to work. It’s all silly to me. Well, Keith’s side is silly to me. I have never felt like a wedding band […]

Who needs a vacation? I do. Either that or I need to move closer to the ocean. I love being away from home and being able to just relax. I would love to get to go to Nantucket and stay in one of the many Nantucket vacation rentals right on the beach. I love watching […]

Yesterday flew by really fast. I got up really early and immediately started cooking dinner. I had the family sitting down to eat at 10:00 a.m. I cooked ribs and several side items. I cracked up when I looked over at the clock when we were eating and saw the time. I was on a […]

There are so many little guys in our family now. For the longest time, it was nothing but girls. There have been several of us that only have boy, so it has evened out a bit. I get so confused on what to buy as gifts for them. Some love sports, others love art, it […]

It’s 12:01… Do you know where your children are? Remember that commercial? I barely do, it just popped into my head. Just wanted to post and say Happy Halloweenie! I’m not going to be watching any scary movies tonight and I’m turning the porch light off. Nah, I’m kidding. I like trick or treaters. I’m […]

I like most berries, but have never heard Goji Berries. They look delicious! What’s even better is how good they are for the body. They are known as the most nutritious and richest antioxidant food source on Earth. The extracts from Goji berries and leaves have been observed to destroy cancer cells in a […]

I am a failure. I really wanted to start going to bed earlier, but I couldn’t make it past one night. I normally wait up on Keith to come in and I think it bothered him that I wasn’t up last night. He never calls me anymore, but he’s called several times tonight, so I […]

Sometimes we have to look elsewhere for money when the bills become more than we can handle or when there’s a home improvement project that we want completed yet do not have the funds for. We have a big project coming up next year and I originally thought that it wasn’t going to be expensive, […]

So this is what I see each year. If you look close enough, you can see some wagons in the back… I didn’t make it fast enough to get closer pics of them:

It is so aggravating when you have two computers and all the programs you use are not on both of them. I have been working on the pictures of the riders, but I wasn’t thinking when I transfered the pictures from my camera to my computer. I put them on my notebook and all of […]

There are a few things that I might consider having done to myself as I get older, but nothing right now. I know of several people that have had facelifts and I wonder why they did it. Most of them are fairly young and had very few noticeable wrinkles. That just goes to show that […]

I just realized that I ran. I actually ran. When I spotted the wagons, I jumped up and ran to my sisters house. Then I ran all the way down the lane. I can’t believe that I actually ran that far and wasn’t out of breath when I got down there. Maybe I’m not as […]

I do not know exactly what it’s called or if it even has a name, but every year it happens. There are a group of people that get together and ride horses. Some have wagons and others just ride horses. It’s a really beautiful sight. They have quite a journey to be on horses. I […]

I have decided that I have to start taking better care of myself. One way is by getting more sleep. It’s just after 9 and I am having a hard time keeping my eyes open. I normally do this, but then wait it out and then I’m not sleepy any more by 10. Not tonight. […]

Fall break is over and it’s back to being the teacher. Jesse isn’t happy about it and is trying to wiggle his way out of doing his work. He’s practicing his handwriting now. We have to work on that constantly. He’s doing great with reading and math is coming along. I started him out easy […]

We live off of a very busy highway. There’s nothing much out here but houses. There are always people walking down the highway. It’s really dangerous.

My feet are still a little sore this morning, but it seems that the pain jumped to my back. I knew I shouldn’t have attempted racing Kel last night. I took him outside just before dark and we had about 10 races. You should see his little legs go. He runs on his toes, that’s […]

Chills: I know it isn’t, but to me, it feels like Fall is over and Winter has kicked in. It’s currently 59 degrees outside and I’m cold. I opened some windows today and still have them up. Keith wants me to leave them up all night so that it’ll be cold in the morning and […]

All types of cancer are bad, but there are types that are worse than others. One in particular is prostate cancer.
