Country Roads-2
Happy New Year, friends! Hope you all have had a wonderful holiday. We definitely have enjoyed our time with family and friends, and are looking forward to 2017! As most of you know, the “cat has had my tongue” for most of 2016…unless you are one of my brothers, who works with me everyday. They tell me I talk too much. And they remind me often of the times they used to offer to pay me to be quiet for just ten minutes…needless to say, I ALWAYS failed, and never made a dime. I will try and channel my chattiness here, so the brothers will get a break. haha! I’m…

Rustic Christmas Centerpiece From A Reclaimed Pallet!
You remember that box my husband made from an old pallet? Well, I removed the punkin’s and added more pine cones, berries, bells, and candles. Now, our table is ready for Christmas! Yay! Sorry about the photo “overkill”….I finally got a new camera, and I’m trying to figure out how to run the darn thing. The best thing about this centerpiece….total cost $0.00. Zip. Nada. In other words, it didn’t cost me a gosh dang thing. Well, except for the box. The husband says I still owe him, big time. …

Country Roads
As most of you know, we live in the middle of nowhere. So, for my blog friends in the big cities, here’s a few fun shots from our part of the world! A flock guineas. I honestly have no idea where these guys came from…or where they were going. But, then I noticed one of them had a sign around it’s neck…”Which Way To The Beach”??? I’m goin’ with them. Sorry, I couldn’t get that photo to load 😉 Did you know baby guineas are called keets, and when they are grown, they become watchdogs, fighting off both human and animal trespassers? Your welcome. There’s something pretty…

Passion
Passion: “a strong feeling of enthusiasm or excitement about something or doing something” Merriam-Webster I’ve been thinking a lot about passion. Not the hanky-panky passion ;), but real down-in-your gut passion. The kind of passion that makes you tick. Trips your trigger. Floats your boat. I could go on forever with these. Winds your watch. The yin to your yang. The salt on your margarita. Okay, I’ll stop. Finding your passion is easy for some folks, not so easy for others. Some are blessed to be in a career where they actually implement their passion everyday. How cool is that? My husband is one of those lucky few. Others follow their…

Snowvember In The Country!
So…yesterday we had a little storm blow in. Actually, it was a full-blown, old fashioned blizzard. These brave little soldiers weathered out the storm on our dinner bell right outside the door. And with the morning light…. Time to start digging out. I think we need a bigger tractor. Ha! These guys were quick to arrive, cleaning off our highway. They had been out all night working tirelessly, on the main highway that runs through our small town. Meanwhile, on the other side of the house…. This guy has a lot of trouble getting around when the drifts get over, well, to be honest…two inches. But, somehow he manages. I…
