Well There You Have It
I was debating as to what to write about today, as usual my mind is full and in a million different directions. I had pasted a bit of my favorite song of the season, Advent, along with a few passages from Psalms, a little something Jesus said to the Pharisees and I was thinking that … Continue reading
My Ceiling: Room Redo Part 3
In a way I am sorry that I don’t have a picture of what my ceiling used to look like. Just never thought it was necessary to take a picture of ugly with a capital U. Let me try and describe the amount of ugliness. It had holes where swag lamp hooks once were, there … Continue reading
Sneaking Outside
Well I snuck outside and did a little work in the Laundry/Propagation House just before I went into the Doc’s. Mostly the girls worked and I directed, even that for an hour was exhausting. And sure enough, I did not pass with flying colors. Pneumonia still in the right lower lobe of me lung. Oxygen … Continue reading
Living Among The Window Ledge People
So I’ve said a few time before and promised an explanation of not having rules especially in departments where some expect us to have rules. Our daughters, all four, have never dated and won’t. Two are now married. Some folks then wonder what our “rules” look like, how it is we “do” that. How do … Continue reading

Mums the Word (Sorry for the Corn)
This is Purple Light Chrysanthemum and the week’s worth of nine degree temperatures have pretty much done these babies in. So I thought I would show them to you as they were two weekends back. This is Prom King. I love mums, I love the way they look, I love their foliage and I love … Continue reading
Rules, Schmules
Where do I begin? This post was to enlighten those who feel that Dirt and I are all bunched up and are all about having a ton of rules for our daughters. And it still is. It is just that now it has a whole new muse. And the muse’s name is John. John Sondericker … Continue reading
New Farm Toy
This needed to go all over…this (well not the water parts, just the green parts)…and up here and out on the front pastures, (but I don’t have that picture) So Mr. Vick, aka Dirt, bought this orange item a couple of weekends ago so we could begin remineralizing our pastures, Woohoo and thank you Craig’s … Continue reading
A Room With a View
This was the view out my window this morning. Nice eh? The ladder is out because Dirt and Anna put up Christmas lights yesterday. This usually happens on Thanksgiving weekend but we were playing with our new toy instead. I’ll show you when I get those pics loaded. Here is Anna in her new hat. … Continue reading
