#229…Valentine’s Day at a New Level

Flowers are true love, chocolate the finest gift…if not diamonds… This morning I experienced the next level of love. Hub side-kick took some time thinking about this.

#227…Books, Magazines Get Me in Trouble…Again

Where do all these projects come from? Why, my beloved magazines…HGTV, BETTER HOMES & GARDENS, GOOD HOUSEKEEPING, WOMAN’S DAY, REAL SIMPLE, COUNTRY HOME and GARDEN GATE.

#225…Changing Times Bring About Creativity

Dealing with these new changes  with 4 plans to choose from concerning our electrical billing seem overwhelming. It’s all about “peak hours”…they say. We still have to deal with the situation at hand, so we are going to the office and sit down and figure out what is best for us. The horror stories are Read more about #225…Changing Times Bring About Creativity[…]

#220…Will I Ever Get Done?

My kitchen looks ridiculous. So 3 weeks have gone by as I work on cleaning out every cabinet and purging and then purging some more.  I have 45 cabinet doors, a short attention span and struggle with rabbit trailing.

#218…But, Joy Cometh in the Morning

Many of you call me a workhorse with endless energy. Have you considered that 5 children had something to do with it? There is NO goofing off when you live with a crowd.

#217…The Button Lady

I went to a friend’s garage sale Friday and came home with several “treasures”!

#216…Time to Bury the Tail with the Cat

Yes, Pastor Josh Blevins, that sermon was for me. Thank you for listening to God. A lifetime ago I heard another sermon about forgiving others as God would forgive us.

Never have been a box type dry cake person, probably because Polish cakes are heavy yeast roll cakes filled with poppy seeds or prune butter which I’m positive were designed in Heaven!

#211…Dancing the Night Away…With Elaine & John Chirieleison

How we miss you. It must be that the two of you were such class acts because you were originated in New York. We had such wonderful times with you at the Eagles Lodge dancing the night away.

#209…I’m proud of you…I take it back

I love the season of Christmastime. The excitement of the holidays, the songs, the lights, anticipation of the TRADITIONAL meal only eaten ONCE a year, yes I did say once a year.
