Our day started with scrambled eggs, hash browns, toast and bacon. Then I went out to sit and knit while Addie played outside. I'm thankful I've learned to slap things off me when I feel something crawling because after I got back inside, I felt something crawling on my neck, slapped it to the floor and it was a scorpion. Then Addie and I were going to sew and I stepped over a brown recluse ...
Day #1 with Addie
Looking back, we didn't do a whole lot today but I am worn out. I even convinced her to take a 20 minute nap today. We went to Hobby Lobby and bought two patterns - one for a romper that a friend had shown in Facebook that her granddaughter made and another for a dress. When we were in Walmart in MO, we were looking at patterns and there was a dress for a girl and a doll. Addie wanted it. I ...
Back in Texas
Addie decided to come back to Texas with me. I didn't want to keep harping on her about it so I didn't say much Tuesday night. Wednesday morning when I woke her up, I said "It's time to go to Texas!"

I know - the world would continue without a blog post from me but regular readers would get suspicious. It's probably safe to say that, at least for the most part, I won't say ahead of time when I'm leaving but ...
Maybe Coming to Texas
There seems to be some question whether Addie is going back with me to Texas. I kinda expected that. I've told her it's fine if she decides to stay home. We'll see. George was my bed partner last night. He didn't snore or steal my covers! ...
Oven Full of Loaf Pans
Saturday I started sourdough bread. I doubled the sourdough recipe and instead of making two regular size loaves, I made three smaller loaves. As soon as I had three bread pans in the oven, I remembered I was fixing meat loaf for dinner and needed to get that in the oven. Thank goodness a fourth pan fit. The meatloaf was really good. All I did was chop some onions, garlic and bell ...
