The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with,Never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you’ve ever had. It’s true that we don’t know what we’ve got until we lose it,But it’s also true that we don’t know what [...]
Gabriel went to the Lord and said, “I have to talk to you. We have some Texans up here who are causing problems… They’re swinging on the Pearly Gates, my horn is missing, and they are wearing T-shirts instead of their robes; there’s barbecue sauce and picante sauce all over everything, especially their T-shirts; their [...]
So I am in my parent’s house the other day, and I see a couple catalogs. I could be a catalog freak. I like shopping, but when you can order it and not go to the store, it’s like Christmas all year long- as you get packages shipped right to you- to open! FUN! There [...]
We have four dogs; well really more like 3 and a quarter, because Higgins doesn’t count as a whole dog, since he’s 1/4 the size of the others. And they can’t stay outside. No. They might get dirty. OMG! So they can make the house dirty? And dusty, and sit on the couches, and get [...]
It is about 65 here this morning. It’s a welcome change, since the air is cooler and currently feels as if it has less humidity. I slept like poo last night because I could hear that stupid gas rig again. Oh, and it seemed quieter last night. And I realized why. Previously my husband had [...]
So last month I used like an obscene, and I mean obscene, something like 3200 minutes on my cell phone. HOW DO I DO THAT? I used 960 anytime minutes last month. This month, I’ve already talked 650. Who am I talking to? Is my phone growing out of my ear? Do I need a [...]
None of us are as smart as all of us. Do not adopt the goal for someone else to do something you want. Don’t adopt goals that are outside our control. Focus on what I can do and not what I want other people to do. Real humility isn’t thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking [...]
Birds chirping. A clock ticking (because it’s quiet enough for me to hear it). Horses munching hay. Shod horses walking on concrete. Hello nickers from my horses. Higgins singing to me. Squeaky saddles. Running water. Waves.
So what does it mean when I change handbags and *rediscover* lipstick, Burts Bees, or lip gloss that I’ve not seen in months? Does it mean I’ve got too many handbags, or too many lipsticks? Or both?
It’s been pouring. I mean, POURING. Since about 7am, we’ve had rain, thunder and lightning. And have I mentioned, that I don’t do thunderstorms? They terrify me. I live in the wrong state or something. Call me crazy if you want to, but the fact is, I worry about all my creatures and the roof [...]
