That's right folks, it is time for another adventure from the ranch! When we got our property, it was overrun with thistles. That first summer it was an everyday job to spray them with weed killer, made specially for them. We had pump up sprayers that you put the weed killer in, mix with water, … Continue reading Ants in your pants

Warning!
Warning! This post is not suitable for some readers! Especially those who are adverse to stinging insects. I about to share another true story from the ranch, so get a good grip on something solid, and read on. It was several years ago. We were adding a new section of fence by our county road, … Continue reading Warning!
Stir it up
It's huge! 17 inches across the top and 12 inches deep. That's the size of my husband's favorite cooking pot. The wooden spoon he uses to stir is 18 inches long. He is a fantastic cook. The only downside, is he does not seem to know how to cook for just two people. So whenever … Continue reading Stir it up
The 10% Ring
I am always on the lookout for new ideas for my blog posts. Holy Spirit inspires me when I am open and listening. So I do my very best to always be listening. I never know where my next idea will come from. In a previous post I mentioned that my husband and I watch … Continue reading The 10% Ring
Comfort Zone
Temperatures where I live can get down to 26 below zero Fahrenheit in the winter. (That's -33 Celsius) This gives you a mental picture of why what I am about to share is so mind blowing. I was out running errands on my lunch break in January. I distinctly heard the Lord Yahweh say to … Continue reading Comfort Zone
Outdated
I'm sitting here deciding what to wear to work today. My bell bottom jeans and groovy love beads, or my polyester leisure suit. Now that's outdated! My husband and I enjoy watching older TV shows. A couple of examples are Wagon Train and Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp. We enjoy them because the characters … Continue reading Outdated
Ignore it
If someone calls you fat, just ignore them. You are bigger than that. To ignore is to refuse to pay attention to; to disregard; to pass over or by without notice; to treat as if not known; and to leave out of account. I am reading through Job in my One Year Bible, and three … Continue reading Ignore it
Think outside the box
I just love speaking with kids. They have not been conformed to “behaving like an adult” yet, and the things they say delight me. They truly think outside the box. Thinking outside the box is a metaphor that means to think differently, unconventionally, or from a new perspective. This phrase often refers to novel or … Continue reading Think outside the box
I’ve got nothing
I'm going to tell you upfront, I am the kind of friend who will do nothing for you. This post is going to be chock full of nothing, and trust me, you will thank me for the hope nothing brings you! I was looking up some things to send a friend of mine on hope … Continue reading I’ve got nothing
Fences
I have experience with putting up fences. At our ranch we have installed over 3600 t-posts and strung the barbed wire to them to fence apart pastures for grazing. We also use electric fence. Whenever we had someone come to work for us, they had to grab the electric fence so they would know it … Continue reading Fences
