A life that touches others goes on forever

Twinkle, twinkle, little star. Do you know how loved you are? Introducing …

Squeeze A Boob Save A Life

We were up at 5 a.m. to get to Fountain City by 6 a.m.
We made it with ten minutes to spare.

The original plan was for Cowboy and Badger to stay in the car, but they ended up coming in with me.

I went back with no preparation at all and no explanation of what to expect.
Then I saw their little machine.
I'm very, very claustrophobic, so I told the tech that right away.

He seemed a little grumpy and didn’t really understand why I was so nervous about his machine.

I'm Not Old I'm A Recycled Teenager

Badger was pretty sick last night.
Today she just seems to have that nasty cold Peacock and I got rid of.

Peacock said, “She’s been sick for 17 years.”

Until We Meet Again At The Rainbow Bridge

 

A new pumpkin in our patch

 

“Do you know why grandchildren are always so full of energy? They suck it out of their grandparents.”

We had an easy enough morning. 
Badger and I got Eins and Zwei up, fed, dressed, and out to the car while Cowboy ate breakfast, then fed the chickens.
 It was cold! 
I don't know what the temperature was, but it was cold. 
We had rain in our area, but from New Market to Jefferson City, it was snowing.

So sorry about the Scabies

Scabies.
Gross, right?
A man at Cowboy's plant has crusty scabies, so guess what we're all doing?
Being treated for scabies, dad-blasted man.

I was treated for lice because of my stepdaughter, and now I’m dealing with scabies thanks to my ex-brother-in-law.

May and October, the best-smelling months? I'll make a case for December: evergreen, frost, wood smoke, cinnamon

"Listen! The wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves, we have had our summer evenings, now for October eves."

At what size does a spider stop being an arachnid and become a rodent?

I have a strong phobia of spiders.

We've had a giant writing spider in our living room window for a couple of days now.

Prayers for Charlotte.R

There is a North Carolina blogger I have been following since before she had her first daughter.

I now have grandchildren the same age range as her children, so it was such a shock to read her Instagram today.
  April posted to Instagram that her two-year-old daughter, Charlotte has received the diagnosis of Leukodystrophy, a rare, incurable and terminal disease.

August is that last flicker of fun and heat before everything fades and dies
