Valentine's Day crept up like nobody's business. Before I knew it, it was Valentine's Day. I hope you all had a nice one. I spent mine with my husband, who cooked an amazing meal. He always does! I think ever since COVID hit, things have not felt the same, am I in this boat alone? Well, it was here, and now it is gone. I didn't even decorate, and I love decorating, but it wasn't in me this year. I will probably put a few things out for St. Patrick's Day. Last year I think it was I made 2 cute gnomes for St. Patrick's Day. If I can find a picture I'll post them below. I think they came out cute, my husband liked them. Yesterday (2/15/21) I spent a few hours looking for pictures, and couldn't find them I asked myself "Did I even photograph them?" I had fun looking through old photos though. I found it the following day (2/16/21), it Continue Reading
Snow, Bible Journaling, Worrying
My husband often tells me I worry too much. I don't know why, it is in my nature to worry. When I first moved to Massachusetts, I thought wow, I am going to live in a state I only wished to have visited but here I am living in it. Living here means snow at some point in time. The first, oh I say 9 years were amazing. To look out the window see all the snow, was and is still breathtaking. Then we moved to our new house, and I was, and still am very happy so is my husband. The first 2 years, here again, were amazing, and happy, and they still are. However, with that came concern of the beautiful animals I have the opportunity to see out of my windows all year round. From rabbits to a groundhog to squirrels to beautiful birds and yes even turkeys and deer. Just so much beauty that God has blessed us with. I needed to step away, this Continue Reading
Believe It Or Not!
I am getting my very first bible. I never had my own. I know as a kid, we did get to some Sunday schooling but that ended, not sure why. But I had a little pink book with a cross in a little window on the cover. I believe that was old testaments. To be honest I have no idea what happened to that. I sure wish I still had it. After I moved from my parent's home (after my mother, RIP, passed) I moved to England purely out of depression, not a great choice. I have things that I regret and that is one of them. Although on that same note the events that followed, lead me to my current husband. So as it is always said. God has a reason for everything. I truly believe that now, deeply in my heart. About the Bible, I think I wrote about it in my other blog, so I am going to copy and paste most of that part of the post. It is a New James Continue Reading
The End Of The Year Is Here!
Can you believe how fast this year has gone? And oh my goodness so much craziness going on. We really need our nation to heal. What is happening is unacceptable. I don't like talking about politics too much, but I just want the truth to come out, whatever it may be. God help us all. On a happier note. I am starting to see houses with Christmas lights, it is a time for cheer and we all need it badly. We aren't going to put up many lights this year, but we will be putting up a Christmas tree. We cannot have a real tree because we have cats, and if you have cats you shouldn't either. Please don't put a real tree, this is very dangerous for cats and dogs. I'll leave a link to a good article, please use good judgment, we all want a happy and safe Christmas. Continue Reading
Hello November, already?
This year pretty much flew by pretty quick. I think everyone is looking forward to 2021, I know I am. However I think most of it will be very similar to how it is now. You can't expect change overnight, that is just not realistic. We had snowfall the day before Halloween, that is the first for me here in MA! We usually don't get it until like February, but this was very unexpected, does this mean winter will be filled with a lot of snow? This is possible. Which leads me into my next thought. The stray cats we feed, I know people say don't feed them or they will keep coming around. Well, hello that is the whole purpose I feed them, so they can come around and get something to eat. I pretty much consider them my cats, it just a matter of time before they will let me get close enough to pet and eventually pick them up. I really want Continue Reading
