Hoping all is well with you, Capt., and that you have a very happy birthday!
Oh, Hank, those are so good! I particularly like #7, 17, and 27. I'll print out your list and try to live by most of it (#28 excepted) daily!
Happy Wednesday everyone! I mowed the back yard (has it gotten bigger this year?) while husband mowed the paths to the pond. I'll be planting the...

Easter looms, and the hens are excited (egg-cited?) about a holiday that features eggs. Kevin didn't want to be left out, so he put on bunny ears...
I'm an old wife, and I've got a lot of tales to tell! There are so many "sayings" and some hold truth and some don't. One of my favorites is "red...

Ronni, you just better post pictures of your riding lesson! We are waiting with baited breath.
