Happiness gently landed on my shoulders

  • ..or at least for an hour…we’ll try an hour…I’m realizing I may have an addiction which is causing me to be unproductive.  It’s not really the social media aspect – which I’m actually finding to be monotonous (looks like too many O’s).  But it is my curiosity and my IBOOK and Kindle habit which has… Read more

  • Not so many years ago, I woke up crabby every morning.  Okay…let me start again because I still do. Not so many years ago, when the first thing went wrong in my day…wrong meaning not in line with my planned schedule of how I should feel or what I should do or what happens to… Read more

  • We have renewed the plates on the car and truck for 2 years and longer than that for the trailer…so the only reason I can see going back to the DMV in Cass County will be if we buy a new vehicle.  You can renew on line or in the mail…but 1) I forgot and… Read more

  • Cake!

    Twice baked cake. Seriously! I learned this week that when you understand cooking and baking and have years to perfect the talent, you know nothing is a total loss. The lower oven heating element didn’t work in the house we rented, so when Gena went to cut the spice cake with cream cheese frosting,  the… Read more

  • Footprints….

    I woke up this morning thinking about our last day at Eufala Lake….and then I went a little deeper..I was thinking about this house we rented.    A week of our lives we lived in this house…we laughed, we watched TV, we found our own separate corners and read, we fixed meals, we looked forward… Read more

  • APPARENTLY

    During the off-season in Oklahoma (after Labor Day) things change. Not only does the largest and most active marina not rent boats after Labor Day but many shops in Eufala and restaurants along the lake are closed on Monday.  This could easily turn into a rant:    Look at the faces on these people! And… Read more

  • A rainy day at Eufala Lake, OK

    But just the kind of Sunday I like.  5 cups of coffee while watching  Face the Nation and Meet the Press…a car ride and cooking supper with Gena!  We are renting a 3 bedroom house overlooking the lake..had we come winter or spring, there would be a much better view but it’s good enough for… Read more

  • After we dropped our 2 year old motor mouth off with his mama the other day, we were talking about how bad we felt that we don’t remember language milestones of our girls.  Every week we notice huge leaps in his language skills … His vocabulary, his parroting of our words and putting sentences together.… Read more

  • Turmeric

    A few months ago, I suffered with some pretty bad shoulder pain…both shoulders….this coincided with the kidney cancer diagnosis so I suffered through without the use of NSAIDS.  I’ll get back with an NSAIDS discussion!  I had a chiropractor adjustment, had acupuncture a couple of times and a couple of deep tissue massages at the… Read more
