I have a feeling the time has come...


There was a time when I would get two or three comments  each day to make me want to continue, but I haven't heard from anyone in months.

I sent myself a comment to make sure it works.

and I have 20 some followers it says, but, not ONE  word have I received. So, good bye my friends.



It has been so much fun sharing, but, I need to know there is someone there listening too.

The trouble with referees is that they just don't care which side wins.


we went to our Grandson's wrestling championship last night. I would like to say it was fun, but....

We sat on those hard old gym benches for over 5 hours. It took Beau ( our grandson ) all of 28 seconds to pin the guy and win the championship in his weight group...hahaha.


But it was exciting watching the others as well.


great group of young men who rotate from one sport to another all together.


We were so proud of him.

Thank you for taking time to look.

Kids: they dance before they learn there is anything that isn't music. ~William Stafford


We went this week to watch our Grandson Isiah and his girlfriend in a ballroom dance recital. They have been dancing together for the past six or eight months.


three months ago they were stumbling all over themselves.. I have to admit, I was impressed with the improvement.


still a bit stiff and so serious, but  they are having a lot of fun.


And from what I hear through the grapevine, it isn't hurting the relationship any either....hahaha


I attempted to make them a magazine cover.

Ah me! love can not be cured by herbs.



 It's not very often that my honey sits still 
long enough for me to get a good shot 
of her, but, I caught her off guard today...



I have to admit, I thought it came out quite well.
