More Than A Song

I got one new thing recently, last Friday in fact, but I’ll include a picture of my other new toy that I don’t think I’ve talked about before. Hubby got me a new cell phone last week……I think I could have still used the old one but he and the kids were beginning to call […]

After a long and busy weekend, I’m now trying to catch up on some things but not having much luck! I seem to have misplaced my keys and that has sort of stalled me from doing anything else…..I hate losing stuff! ARGH! Our church did a servant evangelism project Friday evening………passed out free water bottles […]

After waiting and waiting on my hostas to bloom; I blogged about it here…….I finally have one that the buds actually opened! The first one that I had the picture of just had those buds but they never really opened and just sort of died I guess. Stacy said they are probably like a tear […]

exciting Friday night at home! One of our daughters and her boyfriend came for a brief visit this weekend, drove to see us after they got off work. We had supper and visited briefly; I had thought we might play a game or watch a movie but it seems that everyone else had another idea. […]

Last week for Mother’s Day one of my children gave me some roses! They are so pretty, kind of several shades of pink and I enjoyed having them around here……….but, alas, they don’t last forever! A week makes a lot of differnce in how they look! See for yourself………

It’s a first for me………….I noticed a week or so ago that two of my hosta plants have shoots with a bud or bloom on them! This is the third year I think that hostas have been in some of our beds and none of them have ever bloomed before. And it might not make […]

Had a full and fun weekend! We rented a movie Friday night to watch, “The Greatest Game Ever Played”, a true story and we enjoyed the movie. It was interesting to see some history behind golf, this tournament and the story of this amateur that played in it. I recommend it to watch.

Yesterday I went to Walmart, somewhere I go way too often! I went down a few clearance aisles and found something on it that I don’t remember seeing in there before. In fact, we looked for this item back in March when the kids were home and looked around the store and even asked a […]

One of my friends brought me something today, a treat…….for pet sitting! It was so not necessary; I like for us all to do that back and forth for each other, and I might need their services sometime later this year. But it was fun to get and they are so nice to have to […]

About a week ago, friend #1 asked the hubby if we would feed their cats (and fish) and get mail while they were gone on a trip. Hubby says sure, which really means me because he hasn’t fed them yet 😉 Then friend #2 calls, because her cat really stays most of the time at […]

I finally got some plants put into pots……..I’ve had the big Kimberly Queen Ferns for almost a week and really needed to get them done. They are the one thing that for some reason I’m able to grow all season and not kill! I can almost neglect them and they still are good all summer […]

I guess really it was Friday that was the busiest, or most hectic. D decided to go on the camp out that they took the church boys on and I decided to go to the women’s retreat! So we were both scrambling at the last minute to pack and we left about the same time […]

It rained here last night, stormed I think, and is now nice and cool today; almost chilly! My magnolia tree has many buds on it and the first blossom on it opened a day or so ago; I should have gotten a picture of it then because I think it doesn’t look as good today […]
