So, I’d like to pretend my lack of posts were due to some life-changing event. Like child-birth. Or Jesus coming back. But, in reality, I’ve just kinda been doing life. I snuck off to the pub the other night (with my husband) and had a marvelous time. I went shopping with my daughter for a…
Due to recent events beyond my control, I find myself a little heavy-hearted. Frustrated. Irritated. And a host of other words, most of which are unpleasant. Yet, there are these. Pictures from my walk on Tuesday with Addie, a motley dog and an enormous amount of water. And these, these are good. So rather than…
I went shopping today. Shopping for me is not a fun task, a thing to be celebrated nor an outing of great anticipation. It’s more like a ‘I need some Tums and a Vodka on the Rocks’ kinda’ experience. Today, however, turned out surprising well. My darling child, all of whose pants have mysteriously been…
Ever have a good cloud day? A day when the skies are blue, the trees are a bright, tender green and the clouds, giant and fluffy beyond compare? The kind of fluffy-puffy that soars miles high yet has a perfectly flat bottom? This was a good cloud day. I was amazed by them while driving…
Good morning dear readers! I hope this little walk finds you all well with the world going your way! And, if not, maybe these photos will brighten your day. Last night we had a wild storm, lightening, thunder, tiny bits of hail and enough rain to drown the town. But the rain was needed, the…
Things have been crazy around here, selling stuff, buying stuff, putting up broilers, attending parties and so on. But Addie and I stole a few minutes to take a quick walk Here is what we saw. White clover, blooming beautifully. Plus a small child with a purple, flower weed thing. I think it is Toad…
Last week, in Texas and across much of the country, it rained. In like, the second flood. We didn’t suffer as much as many folks, and for that I am thankful. Our neighbor’s hay on the other hand, it got a tad bit wet. This is the creek, only it isn’t supposed to be here. …
Do you ever get headaches? The kind that blind your mind and make you want to scream? I do. Not very often, thank God, only 3 or 4 a year. I had one this week. The day was beautiful and I had a ton of wonderful things planned, including a blog for you. That didn’t…
School, laundry and chickens dominated the day. However, the Texas weather has been…….awesome. So we both took a break from our duties and explored the yard, field and creek. Here is what we saw. Addie took over my camera, and along with five thousand, two hundred and eighteen pictures of my car, the horse trailer and…
Hello and Happy New Year to all my dear readers! I hope your holiday season was blessed and stress-free. If it wasn’t, I’m glad it’s over and let’s hope that 2016 is an improvement. You probably saw on the news that last week, in Texas, we had 80 degrees and sunny weather on Friday. On Saturday,…
