Home again at last

The 4 children at home and I got to go skating! Our church paid for the rink and we just paid to rent the skates. It was a lot of fun. I used to skate a lot when I was a teen. I love skating, but tried not to get carried away. I was careful and didn't fall down. Afterwards my 16 year old son helped me clean the doctors offices. I was really tired and we didn't get started until after 9 pm. But with his help we got it done in less than an hour. Now I am going to bed. Goodnight and God bless you! Sign in to see full entry.

We headed out for Wyoming

I'm home now and thought I would write a little more. My sister and I headed out for Wyoming. It was exciting for me, because I hadn't traveled much. It was late September, but still very warm,sunny weather. I can't remember where we were when Laurie noticed the gas gauge going down quite rapidly. "I'll pull over." I said. "No, don't pull over, we'll get stranded. Keep driving to the next exit!" Laurie said. So, we made it to the next exit and pulled into a gas station. There was a trail of gas...

"How I met my husband" part 2

As I said in the other entry, I met my husband while he was hitchhiking. He looked like a friendly sort of guy, holding that big yellow thumb, and he had a big smile on his face. I picked him up. When we arrived at our destination, I tried to get him a place to stay, but could not find anyone who wanted to take a chance on a hitchhiker. So, I called my mom and told her the situation. She trusted my judgement. I drove the 12 miles out on the country roads to my parents home. Greg had an Ovation... Sign in to see full entry.

Writing at the library

This a.m. I kept pushing the snooze on the alarm. My husband left about 8 to check out a job he might get. I got up, told him goodbye then Clementina and I hurried so she wouldn't be late for her Homeschool PE class. While she was in her class I rode on the excercise bike and started the book, "Sinner", by Ted Dekker. After that I shot baskets for about 1/2 hour. It is frustrating typing at the library, because I learned the Dvorak keyboard and forgot the qwerty one. I'll add another post and... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

I plan on writing about past and present life experiences and what I have learned from them. I also want to tell stories of things in my past, some humourus, some serious and some trivial. I have done some traveling and want to describe those places and people accurately, maybe in some cases changing names if I see it could embarrass someone. I will write out of my heart and hopefully give hope to some of my readers. I do not have all the answers, but have lived long enough to know there are many trials in life and obstacles. I want to examine life, it's simplicities and complexities and share my observation and at times opinions with others.
