Thankful

Today’s Thanksgiving. There are a lot of things that I am thankful for. And honestly, I really do live a blessed life. I have a pretty great husband. I have amazing children. And my grandkids, I don’t even have the words to describe awesome they are. one lives incredibly close to me and the other

Atlas

I always knew that this day would come. Just like I knew that I would write this post.  Writing always seems to help, for me.   I had just hoped that it would come later.  But, that was not meant to be.  I guess the beginning would be a good place to start so that you

Our Light

I was thinking of how to start.  That is always the part of the writing that is the most vexing.  The starting.  Once I have started, it flows and rambles and often times doubles back on itself, but it does get to the point I was trying to make.  The starting though, sometimes I have

Sunday Adventure!!

Since I am up here by myself, I try to keep myself busy.  During the week that is usually not an issue.  Get up, go to work, come home, make supper, finish working…you know the drill.  On Saturdays, I clean and I washed my truck yesterday…she is so clean!  But Sundays have an entire day

Morals

I am guilty of a couple of things, I don’t think they’re actually really bad things, but I am guilty of them nonetheless. (there’s probably a lot more of my guilty list that I am aware, for the purposes of this article will say a couple things). I have a very very hard and fast

Sadness

Apologize for not writing yesterday, Sunday was just a horrible day.m that carried over into Monday. Early Sunday morning my little Felix dog got hit by a car. It was kind of my fault, I didn’t have them on a leash, and I do live by a busier road. And that is something that I

Ashamed

** don’t read this if you don’t want to read a quasi-political rant based on The crazy things that are going on in our country today ** I usually don’t get into political things. From my point of you live your life the way you want to. As long as it’s not bothering me, I
