Welcome back!

Yup,. it is coming. Valentines day is coming, Christmas is coming, New Year’s Day is coming and so is Easter.

All of these holidays are on the way. Thanksgiving has passed, my tummy is still happy. Of course, pumpkin pie is also good for Christmas. For me, that type of pie is good all of the time.

It has been a while since I have had mincemeat pie. I still miss it, along with snow.

Because of the loss of my husband’s mom, we have inherited some of the family rings.

It has made me think about how jewelry changes over the years. Yes, there are still the regulation gold bands, even though they do have a little bit of difference in them, too.

Now rings can be made of different types of material. Not just gold any more. There are artcarved wedding bands, hand made rings, factory made rings, imported rings. The list could go on. Have you ever thought about the history of the family jewelry that you have?

After the holiday, we are still able to give thanks.

We spent the day with family and talked, ate, laughed, and had a great time.

We have had some rain, but we are still waiting for some really good, long lasting rain.

The grass here in Texas seems to turn green at just the hint of wetness. Of course that means that we do not have any floods, which is wonderful for the safety of those who do not have motorhome insurance, or flood insurance.

At the same time, it is not so good for ranchers and farmers that need to water their animals or their fields.

I am still praying for a good, slow, long lasting rain that would last about 2 weeks. Flash floods need not appear. Slow rain is the best right now.

Yes, I am still here.

Nothing much has been happening, which in some ways is very good. I believe that before I have mentioned the old Chinese curse where you point at someone and say the phrase-

may you live in interesting times

.

When you think about what is interesting, do not assume that interesting is nice. The TV mentions interesting things like earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes. I believe that you get the idea.

It is enough to make me think that boring can very nice.

While waiting to hear about the tape, we ought to clean out our van.

We have a bunch of clothes in it from the last inspection, we need to wash them.
We also have Mom’s step stool that she used to use to get into our van since it is so high. It is not a medical step stool, but it did serve its purpose while she was alive.

I do not know if it would hold my weight. I am not going to tell you my weight, the name of the blog should tell that, sort of.

Last Monday something happened.

My husband and I had gone to a local food pantry, got some stuff and some cassette tapes.

We listened to one of the tapes and ended up called the police because of the content on the tape itself.

I hadn’t heard anything like that before, I just hope that the people involved are okay.

Yup, it is me again. I have checked out a lot of different site on the web and sometimes I wonder just who is on the other end.

Well, I am a housewife who has been married for 28 years to a great, loving man. We have two cats who think they tell us what to do (like when to go to bed, etc.).

We both like to talk to people. I obviously have opinions and have shared them repeatedly. So far I have not managed to make anyone extremely grumpy, yet.

We have a bunch of folks who come by to visit and then sit and talk a while.

In other words- we is just folks.

One thing that I can tell that we do not need right now is an infrared heater.

The heat today was over 100 again. In the winter, such a thing would be greatly appreciated by many that I know. Our church could probably use something like that. I have no idea what type of heaters we have at church. Right now, they are not needed in the slightest.

In the winter, however, they might be a good idea.

After all of the moaning and groaning, and griping; we passed.

I cannot tell just how relieved we4 both are at this moment. The work was worth it since the landlord was very excited by the changes. Now, maybe we can rest for a few days.
