More Than A Song

Tuesday I decided to go to a nearby town to return a few items and do a little shopping. The closest mall to me is about 30 miles away and I haven’t been in a while but after being there yesterday and seeing a few stores that had closed, I think I decided to just […]

This past weekend Don & I flew to Houston to surprise our son for his birthday, a belated birthday surprise. We were in Charlotte a couple of weekends ago when Trent had his birthday so SK decided to have a family get together for him after his big day and for it to be a […]

Recently several people have told me that Lifetime would be showing movies on Monday nights that were made from Nora Roberts books, Stacy was one of those people. I think another one was my SIL’s grandmother….the cutest, prettiest, spunkiest little church going Southern lady. When I went to Charlotte to see my daughter a few […]

Maybe this week I’ll be better about following my plan! Got a little sidetracked last week with being out of town some and next week starts a whole new set of problems, but I’ll save that for another post. Check out Laura’s place for more menus this week. Hope it’s a good one for you! […]

Sister Stacy called this morning and wanted to know if I wanted to come see her today; our Dad was going to drive to her house and I could go eat lunch with them. I had to make a quick decision since it was 9:30, 90 miles & a 1 1/2 hr. drive away! Hubby […]

I’m just now getting around to taking the pictures off my camera that I took while in Charlotte last week. We went for Katelyn’s first birthday party and had fun visiting. I think the birthday girl had fun too! All you really need are some presents and yummy cake………….. Boxes are good because she was […]

I need to get back into a routine of doing this; so supper doesn’t sneak up on me without having a plan and so I can shop more efficiently! Check out Laura’s place for more great menu ideas. Monday……….Crockpot Chicken Santa Fe, one of our favorites and easy to adjust in case we invite friends […]

I saw this at Dawn’s place and thought it looked like fun so I swiped it to do! We enjoy playing Scattegories; this was a little harder than I first thought it might be. Rules: Use the 1st letter of your name to answer each of the following…They must be REAL places, names, things…NOTHING made […]

I love soup most anytime and could easily eat it weekly. But usually we have it a bit more when the weather is cold. I’ve been gone for about a week and have done no cooking in that time! So to ease back into it, and because the weather is really cold here, I decided […]

I’m in Charlotte and having a good time! We had a fun birthday party and time to visit and play. Kathryn and I might run errands and shop a bit today but unfortunately I’ll be limited in what I can buy, it has to fit on the plane if I bring it home. Don flew […]

“We’re gonna have a good time” This sweet little girl is ONE today! I can’t believe it. She’s having a party on Saturday and I’m going to the party……….I might hug her and squeeze her and kiss her!

“The time is now, the day is here, One Day More!” My girls would know it without the music but they don’t read this! Oh well……. I got tagged by Kelli in December for this meme and did a post a couple of weeks ago on this. It’s still going around and now I’m tagged […]

Shannon over at Rocks In My Dryer hosts Works for Me Wednesday each week. There’s always many great ideas for the home & family there but this week is themed and all about eating well and healthy recipes/tips. So I decided to play this week and share a salad dressing recipe that I’ll make and […]

Sister Stacy tagged me for this meme; a little more difficult for me to do these where I have to come up with something personal. I figured Stacy didn’t want to know any more about me than she already does! (or anyone else) But here’s a stab at this one. 1. As a child, what […]

I’m not sure I should really post my menu this week because it’s a short week for me! But maybe it will help me at least get a meal on the table for a few days. Monday……..Quesadillas, and something to go with them but I need an idea Tuesday…….Grilled salmon, veggies Wednesday….church supper Thursday……Baked chicken, […]
