First day

First day

About us

It is now my husband and I after many years of taking care of our family. Beginning with a wonderful son until he left home to become a Marine and as recently as taking care of my mother until her passing and all the life and love in between. We've been happily married since 1982 and I can hardly wait to see what the next 26 years brings. It's been a great ride!

It's already April

  As usual the time has slipped away from me. I've tried to think of something to say, to give an update but it just didn't come.
  This last month has been pretty crappy. Just as expected for anyone when life as we know it has ended and everything has and is changing. I hate change ......but here we are.
  We did make a road trip. Sandi was able to go with us and the three of us went to Elkland to see family. It was really nice to spend the day with them. I hope we didn't wear out Jo and Gerald. I'm surprised Kate didn't call and make us leave. haha.
  We have now added almost the last of the trees to the orchard. We added a nectarine, a sweet cherry, 2 different pears and will soon replace a dead apple. I think that Betty got a hold of it last year..... That will feed almost a large family if they do well. We sprayed them earlier and hoping that the blight will stay away this year. I pruned them also. First time. Keep your fingers crossed. Maybe we'll live long enough to see the "fruits" of our labor.... HAHAHAHAHA HAHA
  I've got a few pictures to share but it's still a pain in the ass to upload them to the desktop, edit them, email to myself and save them to the laptop. I could just blog from the desktop but it's more comfortable in my chair. blah blah blah...........
  The kids are almost ready to open the lunch wagon. Hauled it to Monett yesterday. Another week or so and it'll be open. Maybe sooner. BK has touched base with the grand daughter again. She's not working so she'll be helping with the little ones and waitressing. Best I can tell anyway. Maybe she's ready to grow up. Won't hold my breath.
  The weather may actually warm up again this week. I'm so ready for it. If it ever comes down to "needing" to grow a garden I so need a green house. This starting seeds in the house just doesn't work for me. Not enough light or room and too many cats haha. More work done outside too.
  I'm done....gonna be a diamond day no matter what......
