Merry Month of May?
The month of May has ended up being a bit more busy and stressful than I expected. A friend from Iowa had planned to visit during May. She’s been wanting to visit for a very long time. However, that plan fell through and I’m… Continue Reading “Merry Month of May?”
Snooker, Curling, and Bowls
The weather continues to alternate between cold and warm, snow and rain. We’ve been spoiled in recent years with mild winters, but it looks like the weather is back to normal now. Our friend lives a couple hours away and often stays here when… Continue Reading “Snooker, Curling, and Bowls”
Autumn
Autumn has officially arrived. It feels like autumn with temperatures cooling, especially at night. However, the trees are not as colorful as they usually are at this time of year. We haven’t had much rain over the last month so I’m wondering if that’s… Continue Reading “Autumn”
A Secret World
Our son, JJ, works on a Great Lakes bulk carrier. The shipping season ended in mid-January but willl resume in the next week or two so he’ll be back on the ship. Our son’s car needs expensive repairs, but he’s thinking of buying a… Continue Reading “A Secret World”
Critters
We’ve been getting nice weather with highs in the 40s which melts all the snow. Then we get several inches of new snow. Then it repeats. For the last few days, we have been in the “warm temperatures that melts our snow” phase. Today… Continue Reading “Critters”
Hobbit Seasons

Banshee Wails
We have had several relatively warm days so our snow is almost all gone–which is good because the car we are borrowing from our friend doesn’t have 4-wheel drive and couldn’t make it up the driveway in the snow. The car got stuck the… Continue Reading “Banshee Wails”
Mama Mia!
This morning EJ and I were sitting in the living room, enjoying our coffee, when I suddenly exclaimed, “OH! MY! GOODNESS! I see a deer on the hill with her little fawn!” We quickly called Hannah Joy into the bedroom and shut the door… Continue Reading “Mama Mia!”
The End of February
I’m surprised that I haven’t written since February 17th. Time went fast. The second half of February has gone better than the first half, although I do feel a bit worse for wear. I have mostly been busy crocheting. I have an order for… Continue Reading “The End of February”
Turkeys, Deer, and Boats
Monday night JJ and I had a bit of a scare. JJ went looking for his beloved cat, Luke, and couldn’t find him so he asked me to help search. I reminded JJ that many times cats find odd little places to sleep and… Continue Reading “Turkeys, Deer, and Boats”
Funny Miss Twiggley
This morning as I got out of bed, I glanced out the window and saw a deer grazing right outside. I snuck out to the living room and got my camera, and then snuck back into the bedroom and began taking video and pictures.… Continue Reading “Funny Miss Twiggley”
