For Bobby G.

Taken out my back door.  If you look closely there are a pair of Canada geese.
Better look at the Canada Geese

Across the Wabash trying to show the ice that is covering everything.  Cheap camera and no photography skills.

5 on Friday

1) Would you rather live in a world with or without technology such as computers, cars, airplanes, bombs?
I could NOT do without. I confess to being addicted to the internet. Since my world is pretty small ( within the confines of my home) I spend a good amount of time online.

2) If you had to live without either heating in your house or air conditioning, which one would you keep?
I'd keep heating. Air conditioning is nice but heat is essential in this climate.

3) If you had to own five dogs, what kind would you get?
Stuffed, Porcelain, China, Jade, and Aggie.

4) If the world had a front porch, what would you do on it?
Spend a lot of time watching the world go by. Waving at friends and chatting with neighbors.

5) Would you rather live in a neighborhood where you know all of your neighbors by name, or where everyone sticks to their own business?
I like  knowing my neighbors names and getting along with them.  This is why I love small towns.

Blog

I sat down with every intention of writing a fresh new post. My ADD kicked in, and I just spent the last two hours reading my own blog.

Doesn't get much more self-absorbed than that, does it?!?

It was actually sort of  incredible. I like having this virtual time capsule. A place to store my thoughts, whims, fears, insecurities, and adventures.

However, after reading these old posts of mine, I realized that my health concerns were just a few days. One or two posts. Out of hundreds of happy, funny,  moments in this blog.

If nothing else, this blog reminds me that I'm lucky.

I love my life. Every single bit of it!

I am not sure what will happen to this blog, whether I will continue it or archive it.  My world has gotten pretty small and I will probably only post occasionally. 

Thank you all so much, for the supportive, compassionate, challenging, and uplifting comments all along the way!

Things I think about

1. I have reached the age where I can't function without my glasses, especially when they're empty.
2. I don’t mean to brag, but I'm pretty sure I'd be worth at least 50 cattle in some parts of the world.
3. My new diet plan consists of watching the show "Hoarders" every time I'm hungry.
4. Kids today think that If at first you try and don't succeed, cheat. Repeat until caught. Then lie.
5. When People Magazine votes someone as "Sexiest Man", do they really need to specify that he's alive?
6. Please, Lord, let me prove that winning the lottery won't spoil me
7. Am I the only person who assumed the wolf from The Three Little Pigs was the same one from Little Red Riding Hood?
8. Maybe the people that say money can’t buy happiness are just buying the wrong stuff?
9. When I was little I used to close the fridge door really slowly just to see when the light went out.
10. I  think that it's amazing how quickly I can convince myself that I didn't need to do today the things I needed to do today.

Monday with Morgan

 Not sure if she is ready for football, Mardi Gras, or a dance.  She has her own special fashion statement that is for sure.
