Flowers in winter

Check this out! The flowers I received from my friend, R, are still going strong 2 1/2 weeks later. They were sent from ProFlowers…came FedEx…a super big birthday treat. She told me they would last a long time but I had no idea they would do it looking so beautiful. Have you ever received a [...]

It’s a bird, it’s a plane…no it’s a….

This is a keepsake from my Nana who passed away in 1976. I don’t actually remember it in her little apartment but I did inherit it along with a few other things. She was by no means a wealthy woman, lived on Social Security and was a simple, humble lady who I adored, so having [...]

Rain, rain, go away

Whoa, what a difference an overnight rain can make in our winter world! Check this out. This yard was covered with snow and drifted to a narrow thoroughfare that the sled made when bales of hay were slid through to the sheep and horses. Here’s a before pic…

Today it’s totally different.

Tractor’s back! Yippee.

My parents came for a late birthday cake and ice cream treat and visited for a while. DH plowed last night until he ran out of diesel [...]

DH had [...]

Happy Monday

Another weekend has bit the dust and it was a good one. I got a couple of sewing Christmas projects completed and took Sunday off from sewing. DH couldn’t believe I was tired of sewing but we had a lazy day yesterday and just watched TV and I cleaned a bit and DH did some [...]

Whine-fest…wish it were a wine-fest instead!

You know I hang out on a forum called MaryJanesFarm quite a lot and there are some real nice gals on there and a feeling of friendship there that is really great. However, it’s been changing lately and many of the posts have turned into “whine-fests”. It’s really getting on my last nerve. Of course, [...]
