i can't believe where this year has gone.  So much has happened since I last posted on the site.  My niece Katrina finally had a healthy baby boy on the 27 of April, my son has gone to Scotland for 6 months and is now home.  My oldest daughter graduated from University in June and is now preparing to leave for South Korea where she will spend a year teaching English.  Hubby has spent many a week away from home this spring and summer working (some of which I accompanied him to).  We have…

Do you ever wonder what your family would do without you? I'm not even gone a full 12 hours and I've got a honey do list. I'm sitting at supper when my cell phone rings. It's my next door neighbor, apparently no one is answering our door bell at the house so he calls me. One of our trees has decided to die and in the process took out a car, our new to us old truck and just missed the new to us old camper. DH is probably still sleeping as it is only 530 pm and he doesn't leave for work until… Continue
