Will the roads be muddy?

Today my body felt rested. The 2 days I did almost nothing paid off. I brought my 2 daughters to work with me today. While I cleaned they did their schoolwork on the couch. I was thankful to have energy to work, which I wasn't sure would be the case yesterday. I am looking forward to the weekend. We will be having a family reunion at the ranch. I'm hoping for blue skies and the dirt roads to dry out, as it's been raining. If we get too much rain the roads will be a mess. Last week we had a hard... Sign in to see full entry.

Thoughts on our neighborhood... and other random thoughts.

I'm guessing I won't have time to write tonight, so now's the time. This morning I didn't have a headache, but something feels out of wack. I am pretty sure it's only muscles. I took some medicine and felt better later. Today is another restful day. I really needed 2 in a row! I actually wrote on my other blog. Since I have been trying to write here, I rarely write on my blogspot anymore. But that's OK. Our 2 sons have been doing a wonderful job landscaping the hill behind our house. We aren't...

Headache, and blessings...

I woke up with a headache and felt achy and tired all over. I think it's because I overdid it and should have taken a nap on Sunday. I also didn't eat very good yesterday. So, I spent the day resting while my children did their school work. The boys spent most of the day landscaping the back garden area. They made a little trail down to the garden and used bricks to terrace it. I'm glad we have a little space for the 2 teens to take care of. Susannah spent a lot of time cleaning house, which was...

My blogit was hacked!

My blogit was hacked! It took me awhile to figure out who the "hacker" was. All I will say is I'm married to him! I am thoroughly tired of cleaning, so my house will have to wait till Monday. I do enjoy the money, but the cleaning is hard work! I really liked the meeting at church today. At 9:30 there was a meeting, which I guess you would call Sunday school maybe. Anyway, different ones share. Today was quite encouraging because I had been talking about the theme before I got there with Greg. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Talking about... new jobs and feelings about losing the old one...

Today was the first day cleaning a new house. The owner was reluctant to pay me what I charge, until I told her I thought I could clean it for an hour less that the other lady did and do a good job. I also told her I could not promise to do that, but "thought" I could, but maybe not the first time. It ended up taking me 3 hours and 15 minutes. My goal was 3 hours, so I was pleased to basically meet it. This new job takes longer than my other one because this family have 3 young children 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.
