I noticed on Facebook that my sister-in-law is participating in a Photo-A-Day challenge and I decided I’d play along, too. It started yesterday with the first challenge being to take a picture of “your view”. I’m cheating just a bit with this one because this happens to be what I photographed yesterday before I saw…
30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 21
Tonight while we were watching tv and enjoying hot-from-the-oven chocolate chip cookies and coffee, David’s fire pager went off. We have a neighbor down the road who is diabetic and requires assistance fairly often. David had put in a very long day and was finally getting a chance to relax but he didn’t hesitate. He…
He spoils me
The other day I told David that I want my very own Snap-On screwdriver with interchangeable heads in my Christmas stocking. We used to have an orange one in the kitchen drawer and it was the only thing we had with the proper head for taking apart my Bosch mixer for proper cleaning. Then “someone”…

Twenty seven years…
The roses David surprised me with: He also bought a huge bag of our favorite locally made chocolates. Yum! Today David and I are celebrating 27 years of marriage. We’ve had some ups and downs but I can honestly say that we love each other more today than we did 27 years ago. Life is…
An interview with a pirate…
Today is David’s birthday so I thought it would be fun to interview him. I caught him before he started playing his new Wii. I don’t think it would have happened if I had waited. Here goes: Me: Okay, let’s get the obvious stuff out of the way first. How old are you today? Capt….
