Well, I will be ringing in the new year pretty much the same as I did last year. First of all I need to get quite a bit done during the day today. I need to call about my home insurance, go to the bank and stop and pick up a few groceries. Then I [...]

Right now in our area is it minus 16 degrees, with a windchill of minus 29. Man, that’s cold!! I just took a walk to the mailbox and even though I wasn’t out in it for more than five minutes, I was frozen by the time I got back. Since it was just going to [...]
Isn’t this always the way??

Earlier last week our ceiling fan in our living room broke. So for three days we had no light in the living room. So my husband headed out to the store and bought us some Minka lighting. Well, the very next day the exact light that we bought went on sale!! It was less than [...]
This was the first time in 15 years that my family had an real tree instead of an artificial tree. I had forgotten how beautiful they are and how wonderful they smell. I had also kind of forgot that I’m allergic to them. So for the past four days I have been searching for some [...]

A couple of weeks ago we had a serious power outage. My youngest son came screaming out of his room in the middle of the night when the power went out. He was fine after his father got to him, but he was terrified. Well it happened again last night. Around 11:00 pm last night [...]
