The weather is getting cooler, and leaves have started to fall. I love that I live in a area that 4 seasons bring a new beginning to my yard! I don't like seeing the trees without their green leaves in the winter but the ice or snow make them so beautiful, especially at night. And the freeze helps me get a head start on the weeds that beat me to the punch.This time of year has so many beautiful

It's been a long time since I have been here rambling on, seems like my life is never simple. But then again, if it was what would I do with myself? I have been so busy with everything that I haven't had time to even think.I have worked on my pond, almost have it finished now...all that is left is to plant the flowers around that I got over 2 months ago on sale. Lost a few,that should have been

OK, anyone that knows me, they know that I can't stand staying in the house when the sun is shinning. So, today the kids were sick and at home from school, so forget doing anything in the house! It is cool outside, but after I went to feed the animals decided to stay out and do some productive yard work. I have been putting off trimming some hedges along my fence and thought today would be a good

As I let the boys out to start their day at school, and was on my way home, I passed a house with 2 Big dogs out in the front yard playing with something. Call me "nosey" if you will, but I always slow down and look to see if anyone is watching animals that have been left out by themselves. Especially in town, close to the road! Too many times I came to a complete stop because of someones pet

It amazes me, how some people can be so STUPID!Yesterday, I was finished with my merchandising, headed home to get the boys from school. I looked in my rear view mirror and a small jeep was so close that he almost hit me. I guess he noticed that I was looking at him and he backed way off. I thought for a minute that he might not have brakes, because the lady in the passenger seat looked like she

Gardening is one way I reduce stress in my life. It was beautiful yesterday, and I decided that while the sun was out I would do some well needed trimming of my blueberries. So I got my loppers and started cutting away. My plants are about 5 or 6 years old and have only had 1 haircut. So I gave them a good one! Then I read that you should only trim old wood, which most of mine was. As you prune

Well, its a New Year and I did not make any resolutions this year because I still haven't finished the ones that I made last year! I do plan on trying to get the ones left over from last year finished but we will see...I stay so busy with my kids and the things that need doing around here at home. I will have it a little easier now that my daughter is doing most of her classes online instead of

Being at home most of the day has it's privileges. When my kids were smaller and going to Elementary School, I was always ask to come help with some sort of craft for the holidays. I could not believe how thrilled their teacher was to have some help and a new idea! And I also could not believe that none of the other Moms had ever volunteered to come in and help. My kids are in high school and
