Where has the time gone....

Hi,
Sorry it's been a while since I've posted...I hope everyone is well.
Were doing fine. Bob left out this morning for a business trip to Charlotte, NC. He will be back home on Friday.

I decided to pull out my winter clothes today. It got down to freezing last night and it's supposed to be in the low 30's again tonight. It was really chilly in the house this morning. I haven't turned the heat on yet, but we have been using the fireplace. There's nothing any better than a nice fire when it's cold outside. I Love It!!!

My next door neighbor has started having a ladies bible study in her home once a week. I was kind of cautious about going at first but it was really nice. Their not promoting any particular religion, it's just several ladies on our street getting together and reading the bible. We all lead such busy lives that it's nice to visit and get to know each other better.

Bob and Terry went duck hunting on Saturday. This was the first time they had taken the new boat out. Everything seemed to go fine except it took them a couple tries to get the boat lined up so they could launch it. Unfortunately, they didn't see any ducks but they still have several more weeks left in the hunting season.

Bob and I went to a cookout Saturday afternoon at his general managers house in Columbus. He lives in the rich area of Columbus so I knew this house was going to be pretty grand. You should have seen it...WOW!! What a house... It cost them 850 thousand dollars. When you entered through the front door there was a grand staircase that was absolutely beautiful. The house is 5000 square feet. It's huge!!! The best part was the kitchen. Besides being one of the biggest kitchens I have ever seen, it has a island that is 7 ft by 7 ft. Of course the counter tops are granite. I definitely would not want their mortgage payment, though. It's around eight thousand dollars a month. I could think of other things to do with that money.

Bob and I will be married 14 years tomorrow. It's hard for me to believe we've been together that long. Time has gone by way too fast. Were going to put up my Christmas village this weekend. It takes about 3 days to get it all up. It's a lot of work but it's beautiful once we get it all done.

Well, that's about all that is going on up here. Take care.

Nice Weekend.....

Just a note to say "hi" and to wish everyone a nice weekend. We don't have a lot planned so I hope to have a couple nice, lazy days. Take care.

WHAT WE ALL SHOULD LIVE BY....

Live Simply

Love Generously

Care Deeply

Speak kindly

Leave the rest to God....

Redneck Smoke Detector.......

This is too funny!!!!!!!!

What beautiful weather we are having.....

It is absolutely beautiful up here in Ohio. We couldn't ask for better weather. I have spent the morning outside working on a couple projects. I put new caulking around a large window we have on the back of our house. With winter on the way, I want to keep our heating bills as low as possible.


I decided to clean out our storage building. It's amazing how much stuff has accumulated in there. The building has become a catch all for items we don't want in the garage. I emptied everything out and I got it all sorted. There is quite a lot I am throwing away. I know the trash guy is going to hate me this week. The building looks a lot better, though.

Here is Terry's new address: 4954 Kristie Falls, Columbus, OH 43221. His e-mail address and cell phone number are staying the same. Here they are in case you don't have them. His e-mail address is: tla2420@yahoo.com and his cell phone number is: 614-271-8222.

Also, I want to wish Joy a "Happy Birthday". I hope your day is a good one....

Take care everyone.

Sorry - I just had to do it......

Quick update on my tests.....

Hi,
I wanted to let everyone know that my doctor's office called today with the results of my Stress Test and the Echo cardiogram. Both test came back fine. They didn't show any abnormalities.

So for now, it looks like the pain I was having was from a pulled muscle. Thanks to everyone for you prayers. Love to all of you.
