It’s November y’all. The wind started blowing and blowing and blowing last night. It blew a pillow off a chair on the BACK porch and transported it across the street to the lot over there. I think it blew November right in the door. It definitely blew the chairs to the corner of the porch….
Hey, Happy Halloween!! We moved to our new house in August. Everything is neat and tidy…and NOT very decorated. That will change on Monday. But that’s beside the point. 2020 has been weird. But I’m not telling you anything you didn’t know. Am I? Also, I miss my mother. She’s been gone 22 years and…

Raise your hand if you’d like to know five ways to have a perfect life. Yeah, just raise it right on up there! That’s awesome! I’ve met people… everything they planned…
Daddy was a farmer. Except when he wasn’t. Yesterday the delivery man asked me where I was from. He said, “Arkansas? Really? Hmmm, what’s that like?” “Nice”, I replied…”rocks, mountains, trees, waterfalls and creeks for wadin’ and hot sandy roads for searin’ the bottom of bare feet.” “Aaannd goats, we had goats.” Because when daddy…
Have you ever needed to decorate a deck with a faux rug? Have you ever used a faux rug for a facelift? I did once…but not on MY face, though. I’ve been thinking about all the people who’ve been hit and impacted by Hurricane Laura. It is heart breaking to think of the loss. I…
