With all the commercials about the occassional person believing they should be yelling, while simultaneously using their hands in excitable gestures, to then discover they should toss the Chianti for lederhosen, one can't help but become curious about their own DNA history. With my dad being full . . .
Mama needs a chauffeur!
This week has been a week that has frazzled me. Every day, something or something plural, has popped up to add to the already busy schedule. I've forgotten a vet appointment for one of our dogs and twice have forgotten to pick up some fliers at City Hall. Another example is today, when I pulled out . . .
I’ve got the power!
You know that line from that '90's song, "I got the power!"? Well, that's me, baby. I got the power. The power to control the weather with the addition or removal of my studded snow tires. Yep, pictured below is what prompted me to buy snow tires that meant business because we'd been hearing how . . .
Super Blood Moon & Eclipse Events
Yesterday morning, 6:00ish, I went outside to look for the Blood Moon (appears bigger and brighter), when the Earth is passing between the moon and the sun so that the moon has a reddish tint to it. When a Blue Moon is combined with a Super Moon, it's called a Super Blue Blood Moon. The sky here was . . .
Snippets of rural life
As you can see by the pictures that have rain and puddles, Old Man Winter is skipping us this year but that's another post. Ha. I had to take the picture of the tractor at the stoplight not because tractors are unusual to see here in Idaho or any rural area for that matter, but it stood out because . . .
We want a snow day, not an inversion!
This was our snow last week. All the snow that was left after temps warmed up above freezing. Notice the nice blase' sky in the background where nothing can be seen past the pasture? Those are inversions that we tend to get every January, into February and it's due to the fact that we're in a valley . . .
Snuggles and Sleep
As you can see, my Little Man crashed on the bean bag while I was approximately three feet from him, typing last night. He crawled onto the bean bag, burrowed in and proceeded to pull his snowsuit up over him where he promptly fell asleep. Little Man has a thing for burrowing. He's also a . . .
Almost a Seinfeld episode.
Ya know that Seinfeld episode where Jerry goes to get the rental car and it has been given to another customer, http://imdb.com/title/tt0697648quotes, ? I had something similar to that today. I drove into Boise for a couple of errands, one that was to purchase a gift certificate for a Christmas . . .
Give Thanks…
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His love endures forever. Psalm 136:1 It's so easy to feel less than thankful when life is hard. My family has been through a lot of hard times. 5 years of infertility 3 years of overseas deployments 3 kids with a birth defect; Club Foot 1 . . .
Technology. Oy, yoy, yoy & wow.
I was attempting to login to Bluehost for the 17th time (give or take a few tries) when it wouldn't work. With a various ways to login, still, it wouldn't let me login. I was at the "Oy, yoy, yoy," point. This was what my paternal grandpa would say when there was something unbelievable he heard or . . .
