A few weeks ago, a friend of mine asked me my opinion about CBD Hemp oil. I had to admit that I really didn’t know anything about medical marijuana or its constituents. I told her that I would look into it, and if I found it to be an interesting topic that I would write…
DetailsI don’t pay much attention to politics. When I do, I just end up getting frustrated and stressed. My tolerance for chaos has always been quite low. I’m not sure why. Maybe it has to do with being raised by older parents. My mother was 40 when I was born, and my father was 53.…
DetailsWell, this last week certainly has been challenging. I knew I would be needing a new cell phone in the near future. Mine is 4 years old, and has been getting slower and slower over the last year. A couple of weeks ago, it started freezing up. The screen would just lock and I couldn’t…
DetailsYesterday was a busy day. It started early with a trip to the veterinarian with one of our kitties, Eli. About a week ago I noticed a scab on his belly. It seemed like overnight it was swelled up with infection. Eli was uncharacteristically grumpy about being touched; he expressed his feelings about being handled…
DetailsThere is so much potential housed within our brain. We possess the intellect to solve complicated problems. We can ponder our future, and imagine all sorts of scenarios.

DetailsMaybe it’s just me, but March seemed to last forever. All during the month, I was continually thinking that the date was one week later than it actually was. It turned out to be a blessing though because we had a lot of projects to complete to be ready for spring planting. Last Sunday…
DetailsLast weekend started out pretty rough. I had still been sick, and after another week of not sleeping well, I was completely exhausted. Saturday I spent resting, and trying to care for my husband. He was starting to show signs of being sick, and of course, my coughing all night long had disrupted his…
DetailsWow, this last week has been hot. Every day has started out in the mid-70s and topped out at 100+. When I go outside after supper to feed the horses, the air is heavy and oppressive. This is a typical summer in Texas; July and August are just miserable. I feel sorry for every creature…
DetailsIt’s been a hectic two weeks. Between my husband’s work schedule and mine, we have been run ragged. Late nights and early mornings seem to be a regular part of the schedule these days. Throw in some unexpected problems (like the tractor breaking down) and the stress gets unbearable. Fortunately, my husband and I just…
Details2016 started out at a pretty fast pace. It seems that my schedule is always full, and I am constantly preparing for the next big event. Well, some of them aren’t really big, but that’s not to say that they aren’t important. I just returned from a 3 day trip to San Angelo. My company…
