Funny Facebook Conversation

June 29, 2022

Yesterday Vince and I had to see our doctor in Neosho, which is only about 35 minutes from here. It's funny because when we lived in Texas, we had to drive right at two hours to take Rita to the vet in Abilene, or I'd go to Abilene for my mammogram and we would go there if we needed to go to the hospital. Now, driving 35 minutes to Neosho seems like an ordeal. Old age . . we're officially ...

Keep Your Fingers Crossed (Stove)

June 29, 2022

This whole stove incident has to be a joke. I know not to say this but it should take a lot of effort for something to go this haywire! On June 20, we went into the big box store and bought a stove. We were told it was a stove that someone had ordered and never picked up. It had never left the store. It was still in the box. We bought it and it was scheduled to be delivered on Friday, June ...

Sweet Potatoes

June 28, 2022

My sweet potatoes are doing great and making me very happy! The other day I was watching a video of someone who had planted their sweet potatoes several weeks before I did. They're an expert and mine actually look like they're farther along. Of course, the only thing that matters is the end result and there's a lot that can go wrong with bugs, drought or an early frost since I'm going to need the ...

More Bagworms

June 28, 2022

Yesterday evening Vince came in and asked me to come outside. He had found bagworms in the front in Juniper under the River Birch trees. Over half of the Juniper is already dead. None of the worms were there just a few days ago. We were standing out there looking. One of the neighbors walked over. He had his sprayer in his hand . . he was out spraying too. He said another neighbor has ...

Not Staying Home

June 28, 2022

Every night, I wash my hair. Aren't you glad to know that? :) Every night, I ask Vince "Are we going anywhere tomorrow?" If I know we're going somewhere, I don't ask but we so rarely go anywhere that I mostly always ask. He almost always says no and that means, I go to bed with wet hair. My hair is somewhat curly so you can imagine what it looks like when I wake up. I kinda just use some hair ...
