Chit Chat and Haircut
I think Saturdays may be a good day to do casual posts. We’ll see. The whole idea of jumping back in to blogging is appealing but I’m just taking it as it comes. Here’s me with my new haircut. It looks lopsided in this pic but it’s not. It’s so light compared to my long […]

On Facebook I asked my friends to “GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPENED!?!”. My Aunt Linda nailed it! In her words: <—- I really thought my Aunt Linda was going to guess it but she was way off. Yeah baby, that’s right! Oh wait, that part doesn’t work anymore either. I really thought someone would guess it […]

It All Starts With A Butter Knife
So… last week I asked my dear husband to haul our dishwasher out to the road. He obliged. I’m pretty sure someone took it before the garage men came. It wasn’t broken. Okay, it did have a hiccup where it didn’t always run water when the element got hot so I only used it when […]
