Wonder if I remember how to work this thing…
Once upon a time I was a blogger. I thought I had time on my hands and I filled it with blogging. Turns out I was robbing my kids of the time I should have been spending doing things with them. OUCH! Ok, ripped that bandaid off all at once. Time, lots of time has [...]
25 Days and Counting
25 Days until obedience classes begin! Today, for the 3rd day in a row, Maggie got loose from the tie out. And for the third day in a row she came right to us. I’m so happy that she isn’t trying to run off, because she’d have nailed that on her 2nd day here. The [...]
This is not good!
The kids were in the library folding laundry, I was in the boys room folding laundry, Blaze was napping on a cushion in the family room and Maggie was enjoying fresh air and sunshine outside on the tie out. Or so we thought! Caleb says to me, “Ma, Maggie isn’t on the tie out.” <insert [...]
Goodbye Trixie
Trixie-the-Wonder-Dog was hit and killed by a car last Thursday. I miss her desperately. She was my constant, loving companion for ten years. My heart is so heavy it’s hard to say much else. Trixie was a wonderful pet. She was completely devoted to us and us to her. Hover over the photos for additional [...]

April, April Fool’s Day
We sing this song every April 1st. What a fun way to celebrate a silly day. Let’s see, do I have any silliness to report today? Why, yes, yes I do. It’s like a game. See if you can match the right question with the right answer. How many gerbils live in my house? How [...]
Head ‘em up, but no biting!
Ran a bit of fever yesterday and this morning so I stayed home from church this morning. Sally Mae was up till midnight watching a movie, so she stayed home with me, bein’ as she was still sawin’ logs when Hubs and the Cowboys left. So, we’re havin’ a fine time here at the ranch. [...]
Trixie is back in action!
I know I didn’t say anything about it, but, Trixie-the-Wonder-Dog has been under the weather. A change in her rations and a dose of wormer and she’s back to her old self. And even though her old self is actually kinda gettin’ up there in dog years, (which I will go to the grave not [...]
