Life Is Hard Sometimes

Posted on November 20, 2023 by Mandy

The past week and a half has been rough.  Life is hard sometimes.  I hate being a downer on my blog, but I try to keep it real with anyone who happens to read.  We all see so much “perfect life” stuff online.  Everyone wants to put their best self out there, of course.  It’s…

It’s a brand new week!  How is the time change working for you?  We did okay here, I think.  I’m not too fond of it getting dark so early in the evening, but I do like it being lighter outside when I wake up.  It used to confuse me when I was working because I…

Happy Tuesday!  Hope your week is off to a good start.  I have a few errands to run shortly, but first, I need to wade through some emails and try to get this blog post up.  I really don’t have the bandwidth for the emails today.  I skimmed them and dealt with the most urgent…

New Roof In Progress

Posted on October 19, 2023 by Mandy

I thought I’d share a few pictures of our new roof in progress.  Boy, do we have a big mess going on here!   I went upstairs yesterday afternoon to take a nap, and about 45 minutes later, I woke up hearing grinding and scratching sounds.  I lay there wondering what in the world it could…

October Happenings

Posted on October 17, 2023 by Mandy

October seems to be flying by, but I didn’t want to let another week go by without posting.  I say it repeatedly, but I don’t know why it’s so hard for me to make a post here more often.  When I first left my job, it was hard for me to find things to fill…
