More Than A Song

What’s in a name? I’ve been called by my middle name my whole life, wasn’t too much of a problem growing up (except for disliking both my names!). It was only a slight problem after I married but I got my social security card changed and went about my life and business using my middle […]

Lots of little things rolling around in my head but nothing I can really get into to write about; lots of jumbled up thoughts with no direction! So this post will take many different turns……ever have days like that? It’s been raining again and I think that makes me feel dreary sometimes and at loose […]

I’ve felt rather glum today on this first day of the new year. We learned yesterday of two different young men in our area that both passed away in the last few days. This morning we went to the visitation of one, 27 years old and a classmate of one of my girls. I’m not […]

Hope that everyone has a happy and healthy new year! We got together with a few friends and had a fun time visiting. We started a puzzle as well, but will have to see how that comes over the next few days. Maybe this upcoming week I can get back into some kind of normal […]

Last week I finally got back to finishing the Daniel bible study I had started with a women’s group earlier. The lesson I began with was about prayer, and almost everything else I heard last week had to do with the same subject! God is good like that, because I need reinforcement many times. D […]

I woke up one morning earlier this week with a really, really bad headache so I knew I’d have to take some Tylenol to make it through the day. What I keep in the house though is generic acetaminophen, made by the company that had the recall recently. Stacy had sent me a link to […]

Auf Wiedersehen, good night. I was in the store last week to get just one little thing and happened to see that the bags of candy corn were on sale; only 60 cents and I thought I could use a bag for a recipe I found for a snack mix. I figured it would be […]

My calendar says that it’s October, but the thermometer here says that it’s 95 degrees! I mean I know it’s the South and all, but 95? I think it’s supposed to be like this all week……… No sir, that’s just not right at all!

It was about 10 minutes before 8 central time & I had just run to the cleaners to drop something off. On the way home I heard on the radio that a plane had struck the World Trade Center. I was shocked and ran into the house calling for Don to turn the tv on. […]

On a bright cloud of music shall we fly? (Ok, well I’ll keep trying with the lyrics and see if anybody will play along!) Not ready for the flying part yet but we went to our first lesson this week………lesson in what you ask? Hubby wanted to take ballroom dancing and signed us up! He […]

I’ve been tagged by Claire at her blog to participate in The Food Bloggers Guide to the Globe project….to compile a list of 5 foods to eat before you die. This is hard for me to do to only pick 5 things; there’s so many choices are out there and I like way too many […]

On Wednesday I went to get the 2 skin cancer places taken off; one on my arm and another on my back. They are now gone! I guess I should have taken a picture of it before I had it done because it didn’t look nearly as bad as it does now! Got some shots […]

I can see so much better since switching to these babies: I started wearing monovision contacts a few years ago because I was sick of keeping up with glasses & Acuvue was what I used. Even though I loved having the contacts, I could always feel it in my eye and it bothered me from […]

We saw this movie on Sunday and had been eagerly anticipating it. Stacy & Tim came up for the guys to play golf & we had hoped to see it after their game on Saturday but it was too late. Stacy had told me that some of her blogging buddies had seen it and said […]

Happy July 4th! Hope that everyone has a good day. It looks cloudy and a little like rain here; we need it but I sure wish it wasn’t on Don’s one day off! We will hang around here most of the day, cook out with some friends later on and maybe play a game with […]
