Welcome back!

It is after the hype.

The New Year is here and it kind of looks like any other year. Now what?

Life goes on.

Joy of joys, yep.

Of all of the weird things to happen, having my cat tell me to go to bed is at the top of the list for now.

I wanted to read a new book, but found it impossible to read when said cat decided to rest in the middle of my lap, but on top of the book.

I guess it is nap time.

Sometimes I wonder what day it is. I check my cell phone for the time and sometimes for the date also.

Would having save the date cards help me to remember the date? I don’t know.

I have seen others check out their phones when in the check out to get the date and the time, just like me. I do not feel so silly when I see others having the same problem. At least it means that I am not alone with trying to keep track of the date. I sometimes even forget to wear a watch to keep track of the time.

Oh well, that’s life.

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.

We have been spending some time trying to make up for all of the tiredness that we have experienced.

Tomorrow we will be running to get some groceries, but my eyes are no longer crossed.

Driving with crossed eyes is not good medicine.

I finally figured it out, which holiday is next.

The holiday of sleep. With all that had been going on in the last few month, sleep is rather attractive. Some people would be looking for yoga blocks to use yoga to relax. I looked for pillows that were nice and fluffy and NOT flat.

The old pillows that we have had gone flat a long time ago. We would fold them in half in order to get them to stop being so flat.

The holiday of sleep involves lots of Z’s, snoring, and lots of shut eye. |)

I saw something on Facebook that had my juice glands watering.

It was an advertisement for cheap cookie gift baskets. I couldn’t believe what I was looking at.

The cookies were designed to look like different types of animals and they also had other designs. Someone must have a great imagination to do something like that. My problem is that I would be tempted to eat what I was decorating instead of making them for sale to others.

Dandelion, dandelion, glowing so bright, with your little heads nodding in the sunlight.
Why it is that you don’t glow when the light is gone, mom did not like you much when you were in her lawn.
Get some running water, pluck those yellow flowers, pat them dry with paper towels, then dredge with seasoned flour.
Fry them in some cooking oil ’til they are golden brown. Eat them up ’til they are gone, your tummy will not frown.

Okay, I know - bad poetry. I am serious about the dandelion flower heads, though. When they are fixed as mentioned in the ‘poem’ they have a great taste. If you like fried mushrooms, you might like some fried sunshine.

My sis and I did that a while ago. It took about 2 years for that neighborhood to get some dandelions back. Talk about weed control. Too bad we did not know how to fix the greens or the root. I’ve heard that they are edible, too.

When I was still in grade school, we were told to talk about what we had done during the summer. Mom and I had spent our time working on her garden and lawn. She did not appreciate the dandelion very much. There were so many of those yellow flowers showing in her lawn that she created a new name for each one she dug up. I had the chance to tell the teacher that we both spent our time digging up ‘damdelions’. The teacher explained that that was not the right name for the flower/weed. I explained that mom called them that as she dug them up.

I understand, now, why she grinned.

When I grew up, there was only one way to diet. Change you food intake.

These days, people can also go to lipozene reviews, exercise, injections, liposuction…the list goes on.

Of course, if you cannot exercise, it limits your choices. If you are diabetic, it also limits your choices. The diabetic diet is just balanced food. Your body, after the onset of diabetes, does not process food the same way that it used to do.

My main problem is that the word diet has the word die in it. Diet is also a four letter word. There are good four letter words - love, food, cars, etc.
