Snowfall …

I'm probably in the minority here, but I just love watching the snow fall. This week, they predicted that we would get about 2 to 4 inches of snow.

What would you do?

If I were still doing radio full time, this would be a topic I'd talk about on the air. The radio guy in me still looks for those little things that happen around us and thinks of how you can use it on the air. We used to call these "phoners."

Mom Memory – Ceramics

I can always remember her crocheting … Continue reading Mom Memory – Ceramics →

A COVID Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving 2020 is now a memory. It was very different from Thanksgivings of the past, to be sure. It was, however, a very wonderful day! Thursday - Turkey Day Ella was up bright and early!

Turkey Projects …

Something came up in my Facebook Memories yesterday and it reminded me of a Thanksgiving project both of my sons did in school. I want to say that they did them in Kindergarten or First Grade. Each child is given a picture of turkey and they have to disguise the turkey so he/she will survive … Continue reading Turkey Projects … →

Feeling accomplished…

When I called the Bible school to ask if I could pick up where I left off, they told me that would be fine. They had all the graded tests from the first year on record, so I could do one of two things. (1) I could just jump right in where I left off … Continue reading Feeling accomplished… →

No Shave November & Squinting

It's been some time since I participated in No Shave November. I've had a goatee since the late 90's. The goatee came about because of a car accident. I was hit head on and broke my collar bone in the accident. I didn't shave for a month and when I was finally able to, I … Continue reading No Shave November & Squinting →
