This Ain’t No Stanley

Posted on July 15, 2024July 14, 2024 by Mandy

This ain’t no Stanley, but by golly, it works! If you have a young person in your life, I’m sure you know that Stanley cups (not to be confused with the hockey tournament) are all the rage. Or maybe it was. My Teen never got into it; maybe it’s more of a girl thing. Anyway,…

Home Alone- July Edition

Posted on July 11, 2024July 10, 2024 by Mandy

Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall

Posted on June 24, 2024June 23, 2024 by Mandy

A couple of weeks ago, our town had the privilege of hosting the Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall. Our local American Legion post, which we are members of, had a big hand in bringing this to our town, so we made plans to attend the opening ceremony. My mom wanted to locate a few people’s names…

Traveling for Appointments

Posted on June 14, 2024June 13, 2024 by Mandy

Traveling for appointments is the only traveling I get to do these days.  The hubby and I had to travel to our endocrinologist appointment on Monday morning.  The Teen decided he didn’t want to make this trip, so he stayed behind.  Our doctor had moved to a new location.  She had a beautiful new office…
