How do the weeks run by so quickly? I know, I know. That’s a sign of getting older. Oh well, I guess that’s something all of us are doing everyday no matter what our age is in years. And I want to enjoy every day. Although I do have to admit today has been frustrating. I’ve been trying to set …
Each Child a Favorite Blessing
I just got home from my babysitting weekend in WV. The babies are so cute, both the twins and their big sisters. The twins turned eleven months old while I was there. Neither of them have started walking yet, but they crawl everywhere super speed. Especially when they see an open door where they think they might escape to the …
Something New
Hi, everybody. I jumped feet first into the electronic social pool this week and joined up with Facebook and Goodreads. I’d been talking about doing Facebook for months but had to meet that July 1 deadline first. Once the new book was off, I had to carry through on my resolve to put a presence out there on Facebook. I …
A Book by Any Other Name – Titles
Another Sunday. A hot one here in Kentucky. Humidity level is at that point where if you walk outside you get real humid and start sweating before you take two steps. I’m one of those people who isn’t all that fond of refrigerator air all summer, but it doesn’t feel half bad this week. I used to work at an …
A New Book Calls for a New Giveaway
Hi, everybody. Hope you’re having a great week. It’s hot here, but the sun is shining. That’s good after rain and more rain last week. Darrell finally got up some hay and now with sunshine in the offing, his mower is broken. That’s a farmer’s life. When I was a kid, my dad mowed hay with a sickle mower and …
Good Times with Dad
Happy Fathers’ Day to all you dads and all of you who have a dad. I hope if your father is still living you were able to give him a hug this weekend either in person or via telephone or some electronic means. And those of you like me who don’t have your father here with you anymore, I hope …
Off into the Sunset – Finally
The End. Finis. Th-th-that’s all, folks. Over and done. That’s all she wrote, dear John. Enough’s enough. Cut, print. That’s a take. Finished. Complete. Ended. Riding off into the sunset. The fat lady’s singing because it’s over. The credit’s are running. Close the book on that one. And so we have come to the end of the story. Guess you’ve …
The Dancing Room
Another Sunday. Another day to enjoy life. I had a lot of life to enjoy around here on Saturday with both sets of grandbabies (nine of them, but sometimes it seems like a dozen or more) here to give the new room a test run. Since I don’t have any new furniture and only an entertainment center and side table …
Searching for the Elusive Ending
Still not quite there. Still haven’t quite found those two important words to every writer. Maybe to any person with a job to do or a task to complete. The End. I need to be able to say I ended some housecleaning chores. But right now all I can say is it will have to wait until July. You know …
The Sweet Scents of a Summer Walk
I got my flowers planted. That’s for my daughter in case she checks in on the blog this week. She was here last weekend and we went to the greenhouse so I could pick out a belated mom’s day present from her. She’s quite the gardener and loves planting and making things beautiful. So we picked out this big patio …
