I had a few more than 400 words to say...

10-26-2024 - Blog Post 

I was trying to post a picture to my Instagram page today and I found out very quickly that there is a significant limit to the number of words one can post, about 400 words or 2,200 characters. I tend to be a bit on the verbose sides so 400 words today wasn’t going to cut it. 

I tried to edit my post down, but found the process very unsatisfactory.

Then I re-remembered that I did in fact have an ancient blog and that I still had access to it.

Now the other reality is that blogging has probably gone the way of the dodo bird....but since I have recently began to navigate things like Medicare and long term care insurance I figured that revisiting my blog kind of fit the definition for the day.

I have also been thinking a lot about leaving something behind for my children and my grandchildren. I have kept a journal on and off since about 1972, so recording my thoughts, life experiences and general happenings is something that comes naturally to me.

I find myself thinking about what my loved one will remember about me when I have gone on the glory, let’s hope many many years from now.

So I am hopeful that moving forward I can be a bit more consistent in my recording of my thought and things that happen in my life so that my grandchildren will have something they can look back on in years to come.

With that being said, Ill share a few things and move on.

We are weeks away from my husband retiring.

I have been working an updating our family recipe blog.

I am currently trying to get myself out of a HUGE artistic dry spell.

And rebooting my commitment to repairing my temple…but trying to bump that up against an evening cocktail and chocolate chip cookie….

 

'Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will become one flesh.” Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; '

Sunday, March 13   Monday, March 14 This is coming up in the herb garden. My sweet furry family member decided it was his greatest joy to pull almost all my plant labels out of the ground and use them for chew toys.  I think this is marjoram but I am not sure. Tuesday, March 15 Click on the link Southern Eggs En Cocotte for the recipe. It was real good y’all!   No pictures on Wednesday, March 16 Thursday, March 17 Can you tell who was at my house all day?   I guess she figured since her toys were scattered all over the floor that she would join them. She laid down sprawl-eagle and did the back stroke for several minutes then switched to rolling from tummy to back all the way into the living room!   Friday, March 18 Today was cake decorating day. Click here to see the start to finish. Saturday, March 19 Today was Muffinhead’s birthday party at a local park! The sun was shinning and the weather was beautiful and a good time was had by all...

Announcing the “I won…You Win Giveaway!!!”

Several weeks ago I was the lucky winner of a book giveaway from Mocha with Linda . Click here to read her post about this book! As I finished the book up the other day I began to think about the two women the story centers around. The story begins with two pen pals in elementary school and they continue with there friendship for many, many years through letters and emails, but they have never actually met, not until things change for the main character. Her life takes an unexpected turn and she finds herself face to face with her long time pen pal. I began to think of the similarities between the two women in the book and all of you, my fellow bloggers. As members of this unique internet community we enter into each other lives as we read each others posts, as we comment, share encouraging words or just a well needed giggle now and then. But what I enjoyed as I read this book was the depiction of the friendship these two women shared. They had been intimately involved...
