Admiring the $6, one week old roses from The Fresh Market.


Visit another ordinary Saturday morning here

Enjoying the hours of entertainment outside the dining room window

Whats new at my house

Extension of the kitchen island is going in. I am still in need of a counter top. Extension is in need of a stain to fit in with its new cabinet friends.


No more seeing all my cereal when you walk in the front door. Pantry finally got doors. There in line to be stained as well.


Birds (and squirrels) getting a free winter meal outside my dining room window. Dog getting hours of entertainment.


I am in love, love, LOVE with the new kitchen door. I am in serious love with this door.


That is whats new at my house.

Louisiana 9:47a.m.

I cant tear him away from the Guest room, he knows company is arriving.

What I've been reading

An account of what is going on in Haiti from a missionary family 85 miles from Port-Au-Prince. Look here

How I spent my time this week

Look what I got:



Its a little nicer than the one I had when I was 14. No turning to the letter and squeezing the handle.

Look what I've been busy doing:



Putting labels on everything.

I clearly have too much time of my hands.

Louisiana 10:15a.m.
Two crock pots going in my kitchen. One with Beef Stew and one with Cheese dip (junk food for the big playoff game). What you don't see is that I am also making meatballs to freeze. Because I am a lunatic.

What I learned today

If you drink three diet cokes after lunch and then have a cup of coffee at 4:00 p.m., you are wide awake at midnight.

Q and A

Questions from a friend;

1. Am I the only one with my Christmas tree and decorations still up?

Yes, I think your the only one. My tree and decorations came down on New Years Day.

2. How many cups of coffee do you drink in the morning?

About two to three. Depending on several factors:

a. how many times I put the cup down, loose it, find it when its cold then get back to the pot. Its my little morning game I play with myself.

b. How much I spill in the car and

c. How much husband has left me in the pot to drink

3. What time do the kids go to bed?

Butch, the dog, usually tuckers out about 9:30 or so. However lately (because it is so cold and he has not been getting his usual walks around the neighborhood) he is up in the middle of the night waking me up.

4. Do you floss?

Enough dental surgeries and you learn to floss your teeth every day.

5. Your on a desert island with the pages of only one book of the Bible, which one do you choose?

Exodus. It shows that God is acutely aware of what you are going through and even though he seems silent for a long time, he is working on your behalf and has a plan to get you out of it and his plan is spectacular and a grand adventure that you would never believe even if someone had told you about it beforehand.

BRRRRRR............

How often do you see this?? Fox News knows "Jesus Christ offers something that Tiger Woods badly needs"
