Not much to say today

I did a lot of running around town today, and not a lot of the stuff I had planned to get done while Robby was gone to SC with his dad. I had a lot of good intentions, but not enough follow-through ๐Ÿ™ The other day I bought four DVDs at Dollar Tree – 2 Jack Benny, 1 Dick van […]

I’m going red!!

I am sitting here with henna on my hair, waiting for it to sink in well, and hopefully after I rinse later, I’ll be a redhead ๐Ÿ˜€ I’ll put a picture or two in here when it’s finished.

I have a vision

…for my bedroom. Well, for my whole house, really. But I’m not positive it’s attainable. In my head, my bedroom has a bed; a nightstand on my side with a light, my Bible, and whatever book I’m reading at the time and a drawer to hold my glasses, barette, notebook, and pencil/pen; a dresser with our clothes inside and nothing […]

WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW!!!!

I just got off the phone with someone I have not had the privilege of speaking with in YEARS (literally!)!! She was my mom’s best friend for many years, but they lost contact when my parents split up. Now her husband has died and she is trying to find my mom again!! Wow!!

It’s been a busy couple of days!

Monday afternoon our friends were coming over for dinner. They stopped to pick up something at the store near us, and when they were ready to leave the store, their car died! We managed to get their car here, but it would take longer to fix it than they had daylight left, so they spent the night ๐Ÿ™‚ It was […]

Ok, so it’s been a few days!

We left here on Thursday morning to go to my mom’s. She lives six hours away. Well, eight when we go through Atlanta at 4pm. Only 7 if we go up over the mountain and through part of North Carolina. IF we ever managed to go through Atlanta at an off-peak time (is there such a thing in Atlanta?) it […]

Borrowed a book yesterday…

…that I have never read. Believe it or not. “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare” – I’m excited about getting to finally read some of the things I’ve heard so much about ๐Ÿ™‚ I probably read bits and pieces in literature books in school, but I don’t really remember. And probably never anything unabridged.

Another weird dream!

First there was a wedding between Donny and someone. Donny had (at least) a little brother. My mom took pictures of them and put them into frames for gifts to the couple. I vaguely recall some rehearsal bits and a little of the wedding itself, but not much. We lived in an apartment down the hill from a school that […]

I refuse to acknowledge Boggy’s ending!

She can end the story however she wants, but I REFUSE to accept that ending!Part OnePart TwoPart Three By the time the doctor arrived, he was feeling much better. The doctor did a cursory examination, helped him to his feet (and her to her wheelchair) and told him sternly to make an appointment within the next week for a more […]

I had a reallllllly weird dream this morning!

I dreamed we lived in a large … apartment, I believe. It was big – from the back door, which opened into a kitchen, there was a large dining room/computer room, then an open space, then a bathroom, then a small hall that opened into a bedroom, then coming back down the other side there was a medium sized room, […]

Continuation of my story…

After reading the first part (below), please read part two at Boggy’s Blog… then continue with this installment: Her tears of grief turned to tears of joy when he suddenly, after a long minute, coughed and began to breathe again. “Nurse!” she called out frantically, “Nurse! I need help!” The nurse hurried over to see what was wrong. She leaned […]

Short Story written for a challenge.

“Must use the words: fleece, coffee, medication, blue, wrap, plunge” “Have you taken your medication yet?” the nurse asked, as she gently rearranged the fleece wrap on the elderly woman’s wheelchair. The woman nodded at the nurse and patted her blue hair as she checked her reflection in the mirror over the small vanity. Today she was going to do […]

I’m tired!

We got up at 3:30am today, to drive a little over 3 hours to Walnut, MS, to take my sister-in-law and her children to meet their daddy (who lives 9-10 hours away from us) and to pick up our other nephew who is spending a couple weeks with my inlaws. My dh is taking a nap… I’ll probably go to […]

Today was a full day!

We went to a Scottish Festival in Madison today. That was a lot of fun! They had all kinds of neat stuff to see and do. Our friends Tom & Mara were there (Mara had a Discovery Toys booth) with their two boys, and Tom’s parents were involved in the Scottish Dancing. After we left there, I got to see […]

I added a link —>

Wanted to call your attention to the new link at right – my brother’s blog. He starts off (at the bottom of the page for those of you who are new to blogging) with some basic history of our family. ————– Got a new cell phone today. The other one was a certain type of network only, that isn’t available […]
