  • When I Grow Up…

    We just got home from a trip to Florida. We flew from Texas to Florida on Southwest Airlines. The plane was packed going and returning home. On both flights we had a flight attendant crew that seemed like they enjoyed their job. The flight home was especially fun to watch the main flight attendant. She…

  • Weight Loss Plan for 2023

    Happy Weight Loss Year! My dream is to come to a New Year and weight loss is not on my goal list for the year. To be the person that doesn’t have this issue would be so nice. I’ve shared my weight loss goals a couple of times before. I got tickled when reading over…

  • Christmas Home Tour 2022

    What a wonderful Christmas we had this year! I’m sitting here looking at the tree thinking how peaceful it all is still. I decorated the house the first part of November. I tend to decorate every nook and cranny, so I like to get started early, so I can enjoy it. The only draw back…

  • Happy 4th of July – 2022

    The 4th of July is always such a festive holiday. It’s a time to celebrate our country and our freedoms. I don’t take them lightly, especially in this day and time. I’m not going to write a post on all the insanity going on in our country. Instead, I want to share how grateful I…

  • Happy Father’s Day, Mom!

    My mom, my hero! She was a single mom with three kiddos. I was the oldest and I had two younger brothers. My mom married when she was 20. She met a handsome man who swept her off of her feet. She had me a year later. When I was about 3 months old, she…

  • Books, Books and More Books!

    I love books! What can I say? When I was in elementary school, I loved library day. I will share this. In early elementary my family moved often. I was in 2-3 schools each year until 4th grade. I had many gaps in so many areas as I would miss certain ways of doing things…
