Got the DSL connection working, and hubby and I are wirelessly accessing the Web on our laptops from the kitchen table. Tres cool. And, Tech, I’m a little concerned about the tone of that last comment. If I didn’t know better, I’d say that sounded like a threat….oh. It was … Continue reading →
This is a first. I finally got to a place where I could be seen by medical personnel (I’ve been off-net more ways than one for the last week and a half), and confirmed my fears — I have pneumonia in my left lung. Now that I got the “good” … Continue reading →
Yes, I’m going home for the week and won’t be hanging out here. We’re looking for ’46 Mercury, ’48 Ford, or early 50’s Jeep parts; touching base with the grandkids (and the older “kid” and spouse); and hunting a “new” kitchen sink. I’m not sure if a visit with the … Continue reading →
Some kind of crud has hold of me and is making me miserable, so I haven’t been around to check out your Snippets yet. It was a good week. Got some yard work done. Got some floors cleaned. Almost lost hubby’s truck in a new “water feature” on the ranch … Continue reading →

Texas Snakes: A Field Guide arrived in the mail yesterday. I’m not going to add this one to the “In Progress” reading list. Nor do I think I’m going to read the entire book. I did thumb through it last night, looking at the pretty pictures and reading about “snakes … Continue reading →
It’s that time, again. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to each of you. May you have a joyous and prosperous New Year. I’ll be back on the 30th.

I just learned through a fuzzy cell phone call that the cow that managed to get trapped on the ranch several months ago now has a calf–a little black one (baby must be cute; mama is a gorgeous tan). Hubby is not certain if mama and baby managed to make … Continue reading →
