Here Comes the Rain Again
My bloggy kindred soul, Robin, posted about playing in the rain and today–well pictures speak louder than words. Notice I’m still in my jammies?Somehow that it made it that much better! Here’s the poem by Natasha Bedingford thatRobin had at her blog and I think it’s perfect. Feel the rain on your skin No one else can feel it for … Read More
Praying In Color
*A note before you read this. After doing an audit of my blog in 2022, I have decided to leave content that speaks to the Christian I was at the time this was written. I no longer identify as Christian (and haven’t for a very long time.) I chose to leave these posts because it is who I was then … Read More
Tackle It Tuesday
I’m back in the game baby! Finding out I have a severe thyroid problem answered a lot of my health questions and after 4 months of adjusting dosage of the medication, I think I can officially say I’m on the road to feeling better. Things are not quite right yet and I think I have a few months of blood … Read More
When Cowboy Boots Stick in Walls
Remodeling Lessons. Cut fingernails really short so you don’t bend one all the way back while moving furniture. Learn that dust bunnies are energetic and ambitious in their mating practices. In the future, nip that in the bud. Pat yourself on the back when the comforter on your bed matches your living room furniture (perfectly.) Laugh nervously when people ask … Read More
Stay Tuned for The Big Remodel

I did all kinds of work last year to get it made into an office and now I have to take it all out! I think we’re really starting in the master bedroom. I’ll … Read More

Phil had a bad day yesterday, I could tell by his voice on the phone. He’d already worked 13 hours, my car broke down (one more thing for him to fix) and to top it off, I left the dog outside and she ripped the siding off the house near the front and the back doors. Let me just say … Read More
My Free Garden
But first, we interrupt this message with a cute Patches photo: What a bargain hunter I am! Since corn on the cob is to Indiana girls as waves are to surfers, I had to take advantage of the local (okay, it was an hour away. But local to my mom’s house) Farmer’s store. Not farmer’s market, but store. It’s been … Read More
As Promised–Puppy Pictures!
Meet Patches. She’s a mutt and she was free, but she loves Zane. Totally. No one else. She’ll tell me if she has to pee if she can’t find Zane, but Patches is clearly Zane’s puppy. And she’s adorable. Click on this photo to enlarge it and get a good look at those blue eyes!! Look at that brindle in … Read More
Random Bits
We’ve moved back into our house. You didn’t know we had left? See this post. We had a lot of visitors over the weekend. And I hadn’t done anything to the house other than help Phil with the basement. The first half of July 4 was totally enjoyable. The latter half, not so much. “Not so much” is an understatement. … Read More
