Well, it's that time of year again, where we in the United States celebrate another beloved holiday season, daylight savings time! Where we set our clocks back one hour. Where the days are increasingly darker for longer. Where the folks who suffer from S.A.D. (Seasonal Affective Disorder) pull out their lights to help them with … Continue reading Doldrums
As someone pushing just north of 60 years old, I have come to realize that I need to make the most of each and every day. The months and years are moving at a faster speed and I should not waste a precious minute. So here's a little humor first. You’re so old that I … Continue reading Basic life support
Any of you who have read my posts for a bit know I like math and science. I like to see how things work and add up. So after reading a couple of things in the Bible, I got curious. I have a little 3 minute hourglass that I use when doing my stretching exercises. … Continue reading Grains of sand
It's a good thing I'm multi-lingual. I speak English (my native tongue) Spanish, Dog, Horse, Cow, Chicken, and Llama. I am also leaning to speak sheep, but the subjunctive tense is really difficult to grasp! But speaking sheep is for a future post. One morning the dogs were clearly letting me know that there was … Continue reading Foundation

It is very irritating to take time to pull off all the burs my pants … Continue reading White go go boots

I've been living in thambos lately. It is the Greek word meaning "amazement." I've added a new song to my playlist that has just struck to the core of me. I cannot get it out of my head, the music or the words. It is "Amazed" by Kutless. Here's the interview from Praise Charts. (Sept. … Continue reading Thambos
It's a classic love story. Boy meets girl. They get to know each other. Boy loses girl. Boy finds girl again, they fall in love, get married, and live happily ever after. It is time for another tale from the ranch. This love story played out here at the ranch, but not in the way … Continue reading Boy meets girl
I am so proud of myself! I rock technology! Well, sort of. (No laughing please.) A few posts back, I mentioned how I figured out how to download music onto my device so I could listen to it while driving to and from work. I am the proud owner of 150 songs! Then in my … Continue reading You are so full of it!
