It’s 2025!
I admit it. I’m old. I remember the old cartoons, comic books, and TV shows talking about futuristic stuff in the 21st century. It seemed impossibly far away. But here it is, 2025. It sounds like something from a book rather than being on the calendar. We enjoyed a quiet Christmas with Daughter and Son-in-law […]
The End of the Year
Can you believe it? How fast did 2024 go for you? The only things that seemed to drag on and on were the constant political ads and pundits arguing about who would win. I’m glad that’s over. This year flew by for me. I was so busy traveling between April and October that it felt […]
A Week of Frustration
A long time ago, I learned computer stuff at work on a PC. It took me a couple of years to totally understand some of it (hard drives, servers, internet, file organizations, etc.), but once I did, I was hooked. The rest of my jobs included working on PCs and even at home, our computer […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
It’s that time of year when we are supposed to be thankful for all that we have. We shouldn’t confine thankfulness to one day or even one month a year but be grateful every day for all the good things in our lives. We sing one of my favorite songs in church “Count Your Many […]
Stepping Out
Recently, Hubby and I did something we rarely do. We went out at night. We don’t do that much since neither of us feels comfortable about driving around at night. Too many critters waiting to jump in front of our truck and crazy drivers going too fast makes us prefer quiet nights at home. We […]
Visiting Battlefields
Our annual Sibling Trip went well this year although it started off very rough. Arriving in Baltimore the first day, we had reservations for a minivan, reservations for lodging, and hungry stomachs. What we didn’t know was all the rental vehicles there were gone due to Hurricane Helene. We were afoot. We could always get […]
Thankful for Long-Lasting Gifts
I saw a meme on Facebook today that reminded me of how many lifelong gifts I’ve received from friends and family. While they may never realize what impact they’ve had on me, I value the gift of their lessons they taught me. I can’t list them all here, there are too many, but I’ll tell […]
Girl Time
Twice this past week, I went out to eat with friends. Nothing goes together better than food, friends, good conversation, and laughter. I call it my girl time, and it refreshes me. Wherever we live, I always hope I can find a friend to go out to lunch with and have a good time. I […]
