Christmas

December 14th, 2011

Well, another Christmas is here.  I am sorry to say, it is going to be a lean one again this year.  The things that people want are getting so expensive!!  Ipod, Ipads, Kindles, anything electronic are hot items.

I am just thankful that I and my family and friends are all safe here at home.  I know several people who have relatives who are serving overseas, fighting the war, and think of them and how they will miss those away from home over the holiday.

My Christmas wish is for the wars to end and for everyone to come home.  I know that world peace is never going to be a possibility.  I don’t understand why people can’t just live and let live.  It is a question that will never be answered.

So, we celebrate the birth of Christ once more.  I hope everyone has a joyous and safe Christmas.

Disney World

December 5th, 2011

I have always wanted to go to Disney World.  I have been to Disney Land, but they say that it cannot compare to the park in Florida.  I am really more interested in seeing Universal Orlando.  I love roller coasters and have not been on one in years.   I would probably throw up…I hope not though.  I know several people who have been to Disney and they have all loved it.

But, I look at the price you pay to go, the park tickets, the hotel, the airline tickets, and know that I will never make it there.  I can only dream…

Hey, maybe I can win a trip, like my trip to Oregon to search for Sasquatch!!!

 

Oh no, my beautiful car…part 3

November 30th, 2011

I got the Mustang back today.  The work is beautiful.  You would not even know that it had been hit.  The insurance company paid for all of the work, without a quibble.  They even did an alignment to the front end.

I have my baby back, baby back, baby back….

I am sending the other driver a thank you card, just because they did the right thing and reported the accident.  So many people these days would have just driven away.  It gives me added faith in mankind.  What a nice gift during the holiday season.

Search for Sasquatch

November 25th, 2011

I won a trip to Oregon for the taping of a TV show, in Search of Sasquatch!!!  I am so excited!!  I grew up in an area where this show has searched before and I never saw one.  But, they are very good at hiding themselves from the humans, so I may have come upon one during one of my long walks through the forest and not even known it.  Scary stuff!!!  The only thing that I ever remember running into was a black panther one day while riding my bicycle when I was 16.

I have wondered for many years if these things really exist.  Apparently, I am not the only believer.  I can’t wait to get out there in the woods and start searching.  Watch for my episode!!!

Thanksgiving

November 17th, 2011

Well, I can’t believe the year has gone by so quickly.  It is already turkey-time again!!  I have nothing special planned this year.  No family or friends.  Everyone has their own plans.  So, I think I will spend a quiet day, watching the parades and hopefully some good movies and crocheting.  I am working on a blanket for my cousin. I don’t think I’ll even cook anything special unless I get hungry and change my mind at the last minute.

Thanksgiving is such a great holiday.  All the food you can eat, and you get to see family you have not seen since last year (and you get to send them home at the end of the day too)!!
