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
I am currently listening to crunching noises. We got a new box of beef cheek chews for our five dogs. These last a lot longer than the cow ears we used to get. The dogs each have their own particular spot they take their chew toy. If another dog strays into their territory, low, rumbling … Continue reading Guard
I normally write a post each weekend. This last weekend I had nothing. No inspiration from the Holy Spirit, just nothing. It was the week after the last filing deadline for the 2021 tax season, and I was just beat. God knew I needed to take some time off. So I did. I read and … Continue reading Goodness

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

I remember exactly where I was on July 20, 1969. We were all gathered in the living room of my Aunt … Continue reading It’s not rocket science
That's right boys and girls, it's time for another tale from the ranch. This episode features chickens. We have approximately 250 chickens on our ranch, of those, four are roosters and the rest are hens. Sometimes the hens get a little aggressive and peck at other chickens, pulling off their feathers. Hence the term henpecked. … Continue reading Henpecked
I know you've had them. Don't deny it. And you are so incredibly grateful when it is over. Yes, I'm talking about a whole week full of Mondays! This past week was one of them for me. Every step I took forward, set me five steps further behind. But I did not lose my joy … Continue reading A week of Mondays
Well for most people, with the return of kiddos back to school, vacation time is over. Wrong! I'm here to set the record straight.
