As some of you know I live off the beaten path meaning out in the country with no close neighbors. My husband has to travel infrequently and he has been out of town for the last couple of nights. It was actually the first time that I stayed two nights in the country alone without a volunteer to come and stay.
We have been seeing coyotes on the dam of the lake which is down the hill, cross a bottom, up the hill, behind our house, Once you walk up the hill, your are probably ten steps from b
When I first came to GA, I was like many others, looking for a good story to read, romance preferably and I found hundreds of them it seems. I scrolled through all of these authors, stopping to look at some that looked interesting and read some or all of some of the stories. Then, I got a little braver, read and reviewed and found myself in a world all it's own. GA has it all. Sure, most of it is gay M/M stories, but it has offerings for everyone. There's romance, fantasy, poetry, werewolves, su
The last six or seven weeks of my life has been full of chaos and turmoil, some good, some bad. Death knocked on the family's door, happiness greeted some, and a phone call just turned my life upside down.
My hubby and I acutually sold our house and a guest house in the worst housing market ever five years ago just to be within fifty miles of my daughter and grandson. Don't get me wrong. We would not have had it any other way. They were use to having us close, and we were certainly used to h
Handling Holidays and Grief
This entry will be very wishy washy, telling things out of sequence, etc.
I had an uncle that has been my grandson's babysitter at my house for the last three or four years. He was actually at the birth of my grandson. They formed a very tight bond, and of course he became ever closer to my husband and me. December 26th , he died. We were all devastated. His wife called me at work before 7 a.m. that morning and I could not leave, but his son and wif
When you start a realationship there's so much to learn, teach, and accept that if you have the right person, you will definitely know it.
I was so lucky, and I wish it for all of you here. I like to write good things and i am lucky enough to have them to write about. At work the other day, my hubby called me and said," I had to go and get so and so for the plant. I was like, " You have already left?". ( we have both been working at the same place for over 25 years.) He said," Yes, but i
Miserable, Not Merry
Yep, you are gone, and I am miserable. We had agreed three months ago to live together, you being the one that said we were the most compatible couple you had ever seen. Yeah, right, you fled last night when I said the three words," i love you". Sorry, you were not ready, but I was stressed, holding my feelings at bay.
Fa la la la la is driving me crazy when in my normal life I would be the happy Christmas person lighting up other's lives for the holiday.
I have tried to write all of my life, school, my own entertainment, helping young students with essays, and piles of notebooks of stories that my Dad read every one of, from back to front. ( takes deep breath ) Hopefully, I can post this all at once.
When my dad became ill for the last time right before Christmas in 1997, my family postponed the trip we normally made at Christmas to see my Dad through his surgery (amputation of a foot because of diabetes), and help my stepmom. I am not go
I rang the bell of the house next door and heard someone bellow out loudly, " you little shits, I have no more.'
Trick or treat I said in my sweetest little tone, he bellowed once again," you little shits go home."
Glancing in his yard I saw a large pile of crap. I gathered it up gently in my little nurse's cap.
Reaching in my plastic pumpin for a little paper bag, I emptied out the sweet , filling it again, while trying not to gag.
Carefully winding the top of the brown bag gif
Even though I live in Mississippi, I came from an even smaller town in Louisiana.
From the time I was eight until the time I was 13 when we moved to Mississippi I lived next door to the baptist pastor, one house over from the church.
Across the road from us, down the hill, there were a couple of trailors that young couples rented..
Richard and Kay were one of the couples. Richard was a native of our small town that fought in Vietnam. He brought a new bride home with him that left h
Well, I know I always talk about suitcase company and it is not just talk. Guests seem to like to stay overnight, and most of the time two nights. But, some of my family called last night to let me know that they would be at my house next weekend, staying until Wednesday. That would be a total of four nights. I love them to death, but they are the most complaining guests that I have. After getting off the phone with them, I starting bitching about them coming to my husband and how they comp
