Big V Mumbles About Something

This is a pdf version of my "best selling book" over on Amazon, "Things My Father Taught Me - Lessons In Life." This book has sold over a thousand copies but yet it has only five reviews. I never understand that business. I'm not sure what version of the story that this might be, so here's hoping I... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm well and doing great, I've just been super busy with some of my community minded things. Full well knowing the pain of being alone, I've spent time with several people I know around me and gone to a couple local 'nursing homes' with my " Baby Brutus" Boxer. As you can tell, he is a mistreated... Sign in to see full entry.

Well, here I am, a little warmer, a more rested, and looking at a ton of things to get done real quick! I promised you some photos of our adventures up north. I had already uploaded a couple of these to my server when I realized how huge they were. In order to allow for some editing, we take most of... Sign in to see full entry.

The Upper Peninsula of Michigan I mean. Once again, I apologize for the ten plus day vacation. We went up north and kind of got snowed in. There's no Internet at my new place but we were warm and had some fun. On the days we cold get out, we bought some food supplies and such. Suffice to say, we... Sign in to see full entry.

As I explained in yesterday's entry, I've committed myself to doing something my Father taught me long ago. He had another name for this exercise, but I call them my 'RAK's,' or 'Random Acts of Kindness.' Every day right up to and including Christmas Eve, I have promised myself to do something for...

We got about five inches of heavy wet snow last night. It has hit about 40 degrees here today, so much of it has begun to melt and sink into the soft, unfrozen ground. I made my first snowball of the season and tossed it at my eldest grandson, hitting him right in the chest! LOL. Not to be out done,... Sign in to see full entry.

Just cleaning up a few things from other posts and comments. YES!, we got our pipes all protected up north! We spent a day fixing a few broken windows and sealing leaks under doors and one window. I have a small 30,000 BTU vent-less heater in the room under all of the water fixtures that doesn't... Sign in to see full entry.

Eh, I had to make a quick trip to my new house so they could turn the power, heat, and water on, and it took longer than I hoped it would. I spent an extra day up there and it is getting COLD! Not kvetching, just making a statement of the obvious. I have to take care of a few things here and I'll be... Sign in to see full entry.

I did a lot of running around for some friends and was quite bushed when I got home. I was thining about taking a short nap and then do some writing, but upon checking the mail, I find the new title to my place in Newberry. It's mine, mine, mine! LOL Kinda lifted me up. Now over on my Joke page, I... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm not quite sure how, but the link to the photo I posted yesterday somehow corrupted itself. Somehow, the URL included the 'www' stuff for Blog It. When I clicked on it myself this morning, I saw what happened and it is fixed it now and you can see it here. This photo was taken at Kitch-iti-kipi... Sign in to see full entry.
