My Journal Of This Week So Far… Slightly More Than The Usual Entry Just For Practice Sunday 1/2/11 I woke before dawn. I could see the stars out my window even without my glasses. The feather tick had slipped again and I was cold. I tugged and got some back. Elv threw his covers back… Continue reading A Post About Whatever Is Happening Around Here
This is just a post to prove that we've come into a new year and added one more adventure to our lives. The Lattin's homestead in Winter Wonder Land.They still had the Christmas decorations up at their house.We had a quiet Sunday afternoon of fellowship with Herb & Susan and their friend, Ray.
It’s a bad feeling. This let down feeling after a week of busy fun with the family. All the old familiar quiet is filled with heaviness. We play music; which doesn’t help much. Too much happened in such a short time. The memories would be gone to me if I didn’t have the photographs, because… Continue reading After Christmas Blues

...But only for two weeks. I love our fig tree of living green all winter in a land of snow and cold. It's twenty below this morning!I am just looking for a more spacious feeling in our house for over the holidays while the married children are here.
We tell our children that tomorrow's world is going to be much different than today's. We tell them that they will have worse or more intense evil to face and to teach their children against. It's a scary future if you get to focusing on the news or listening to too much VCY America radio. Being… Continue reading Wake Up Call For Us Moms
I had a bad bug in my computer. This bug would throw up red boxes onto my screen at random and then emit a fierce weird scream. Besides it held the whole security system hostage. I could not scan for it. I could not put it in quarantine. And as I frantically tried to gather… Continue reading Reformatting December 2010
