If you wake up kind of grumpy and out of sorts… And, If you have a headache and pressure and popping in your ears, And, If you are stressed about things you can’t change anyway and shouldn’t be stressed about, but should just be trusting your heavenly Father, And, If there are circumstances going on in […]
We Cooked, We Gave Thanks, We Ate, We had Leftovers,
Matthew 14:20 And they did all eat, and were filled; and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.
Lego Crane
My son has enjoyed watching YouTube videos with his dad, of kids showing their farm sets or Lego sets and explaining how they made them or what they did or other details. He and his sister have also enjoyed making video stories with his Lego sets. They love to shoot videos and then love to […]

Over the river, and through the wood, When Grandmother sees us come, She will say, “Oh, dear, the children are here, Bring a pie for everyone.” Over the river, and through the wood— Now Grandmother’s cap I spy! Hurrah for the fun! Is the pudding done? Hurrah for the pumpkin pie! ~Lydia Marie Child What […]
Chocolate Malts
I love me a good ole chocolate malt. But not all chocolate malts are created equal. Not at all. I’ve had some chocolate malts that were called chocolate malts, but really all they were was a chocolate shake. Which is good, but not nearly as good as a chocolate malt. Not nearly. The malt flavor […]
Blogs..
You know what I like about blogs? I like how a blog lets you peek into someone else’s world. It gives you a glimpse of their life or world. Of the things they like or do. It gives me a taste of things that I don’t do at all. Or it lets me empathize with […]
Under The Rubble
I can not imagine being trapped under the rubble of an earthquake. I can’t imagine needing serious medical help and not having any help available. I’m sure no one ever visualizes this happening to them. And, we can’t go through life expecting the worse. Not only does this make life miserable, but it exercises a […]

Sometimes, in life there are just too many miles in between. My parents and youngest niece, who live in Ohio, were just here for a visit! It was so much fun. It went way too fast. As always! And right now I just feel like there are way too many miles in between. I’ve lived […]
Trivia
Is anyone as cluttery as we are? I think, probably not! As I dashed around the house this morning, cleaning up clutter, here is what was on the shelf in the kitchen, under the phone: my cell phone-this is it’s home-, some pennies, dimes and nickles, a cute notepad-also it’s home-, a string of beads, […]

Five Grandchildren
My son opened a picture shop quite a while back, where you could buy pictures he had drawn or place an order for a picture you wanted drawn. It was open for quite a while and then his mother wanted the shop area straightened up and cleaned up, so the picture shop closed. Recently, he […]
