My Aunt Di
Today is a special day....it was my Aunt Di's birthday. I miss her today...I missed her yesterady....I've missed her for the last 14 years since she went home to Jesus. She made a huge impact on my life. I'll be missing her until I get to Glory myself and am reunited with her. Di was my second Mom. She was only 16 when I was born, so she was a large part of my life. I loved spending weekends with her. Yes, she was married...and I used to speak well of my Uncle Randy. That is, until after her death and I saw how little he must have regarded her. That's not the focus of this post, so I won't give him any more blog space. Di had juvenile diabetes. She suffered many, many complications from

Has it really???
Has it really been that long since I last blogged? OOPS!! Life has a way of keeping you busy, eh?! We lost our computer for almost 3 weeks. It's nice to have it back. I missed being able to be online. I found that I missed it most for school items. I also found that I didn't miss the distraction that the computer is. It was kinda nice not having it as an option. Kinda like when we first moved to Tennessee. No computer and no tv. There was so much work to be done then, that we really didn't have time for it anyway. But, slowly, those things crept into our lives again. They've taken up residence in our world. Not either of them are bad things...they just are things that ask for our attenti

Busy days....
Busy days....but then, aren't they all busy? You know time is flying when your six old daughter tells you that time is passing quickly. Exciting things are happening around here. Selling some of our cows has been a blessing. It seemed to jumpstart changes around here. I love watching the Lord bring things together for us. A friend is a logger and he'll be moving equipment here soon to begin logging the top pastures. Honey is so happy to know he'll soon have more acres for pasture. Trees, we have plenty of....pasture land, not so much. Out of our 83 acres, I believe about 35 of it is open and pasture. Honey feels we'll gain about 12 acres of pasture. We also had someone here who told us ab

Happy Engagement Day to my Honey!!
Nineteen years ago on this day, my sweet beloved took me to the beach. After talking for quite awhile, he slipped off the bench we were sitting on, got down on one knee, opened a small jewelry box and asked me to be his wife. To share his life with him. To be his forever more. I couldn't get the YES! out of my mouth fast enough!!! :) Thus started the most wonderful part of my life, that of being my Honey's wife. Through it all, we've been a true couple. Always together. Always loving each other. Always lifting each other up. Always looking for ways to help each other. Always in love....ALWAYS!!! :) So, happy engagement day to my Honey! I'm yours forever and I'm ever so thankful that
