How many of us have had to deal with big corporations for either phone or internet or something to do around home? And how tired of it are you?? If you’re like me, really tired of the nonsense. I have recently had to go through that experience….again! I had to deal with a phone company…
Try being the nice guy, it’ll make you happier
So I have been trying to tell myself that I don’t have to try to get everyone to do things the way I would or the way I think it should be. I believe that we all have a little of that in us….admit it, you do. I have to keep reminding myself that we…
Hurry, what you need to know to get there faster….or at least entertain you
So this has been on my mind for a while now. Every time I drive to work on what my husband and I affectionately call the “Speedway” (and no, it isn’t the freeway, just a neighborhood road), I wonder why everyone is in such a hurry. Is it that they woke up late and need…
Is this really how we want society to treat each other?
With everything that has been going on with the pandemic and around the world lately, I often find myself wondering what my grandparents and even parents would think of the way it’s turning out.

3 Beautiful Unplanned Precious Memories
Well, I’m back to trying to get things taken care of again after a break at the holidays. I think that was so needed to just step back for a bit and not be going so hard at getting things done. I’ve started looking at some things I left here again and reorganizing it a…
Pandemic, happy loved ones didn’t suffer thru this
Well, I can sure say that during this pandemic I have thought a lot about my dad, my mom and both my grandmothers. I have to say that I am thankful that they didn’t have to suffer through this. Although, my grandmothers did suffer through worst, the great depression while raising a family. I know…
Guess what I found, more pocket knives and watches!!!
I’m sure you’ve guessed what this blog is about. I am literally surprised every time I find one of these. I think that now we are getting close to going thru everything once that I have found all of the knives and scissors and watches there are….and then guess what?!?!?! I believe that I have…
My parents are having a good laugh now at me
As I have been going thru things at my parents house, I often wonder, are they laughing at me having to go thru all of this? I imagine there are probably time when they look down and just laugh tears of joy at some of the things I’m finding. It probably brings back a lot…
