Washers

I discovered something Thanksgiving day.  I totally, absolutely, undoubtedly am the worst washer player.  Ever.  I found myself comforted somewhat by the fact I was playing with my brother and sister who were almost as bad.  However, I was the lone player who didn’t make a single point the entire game.  I managed to hit…

American Holiday

Most Americans have spent the last month shouting out what makes them ‘thankful’ as a prequel to my favorite American holiday: Thanksgiving.  Never one to jump on a band wagon (I figured it was full enough and that horse was tired) I have kept my list in my head and heart.  But this morning, returning…

Wicked Walk 11/19/2014

I like to make all my dressing for Thanksgiving ahead of time because it freezes beautifully and reduces stress on the actual day.  Just pop in the oven and bake!  So I was running a bit short on time when I went to walk, my sister and Addie joined me today.  We have an acre…

Stumped

When does a stump become a topless tree?  Is it 6 inches, 12 inches, 2 feet?  Is there some magic, official “stump number” used to determine if the wood qualifies?  I was contemplating this while deer hunting Sunday morning, I found myself seated on an old railroad cross tie behind a dead Sweetgum tree in…

I wonder……

If you eat Banana Pudding at 5:45 in the morning then again at 8:15 followed by another serving at 10:00 is that considered one breakfast?  Or is it breakfast and brunch?  Or maybe breakfast, a snack and THEN brunch?  Or if you eat the same thing each time, in a 4.5 hour block, does it…

It’s Raining……..

It’s raining, it’s pouring…..the Silkies are mourning!  Their feathers are drenched, what a dreadful pinch, and they won’t be dry in the morning! Bless her heart, and we are supposed to get around 3 inches tomorrow. Thank goodness for a warm, dry home and a covered coop! Happy Friday all!

Wicked Walk 11/12/2014

After a month of traveling, illness and rain I finally got to walk in some really beautiful weather.  The arctic blast blown down south, courtesy of Alaska, had recently arrived dropping the daytime temp to about 45 degrees but the sun was still shining AND I had my sister with me again for company. Here…

Lone Nut

Ever feel like you are the lone nut on the crazy path of life? No? I guess it’s just me.  I’m totally okay with being the lone nut. Until a squirrel comes along. Then again, it’s Monday and we are all nuts. Have a great week fellow nuts! 🙂 (and I am calling you all…

I am a Plumber ~ Sorta

Have you ever noticed (if you are a women) that stuff seems to always break, deflate, rip and fall apart when your husband is out of town?  Last January not only did our outdoor shower pipe bust and spew at a rate of speed and height to make Old Faithful jealous but the heat went…
