• Autumn means trees and birds change …

    It’s Autumn. Our Autumn Flame Maple trees are turning orange and losing their leaves. (that’s with the help of the drought this Summer as well, not entirely due to Autumn). And we are anxiously awaiting our bigger October Glory Maple tree in the front yard to begin turning color. It survived the drought just fine.…

  • I haven’t felt much like blogging since …

    My laptop is in for service. It’s running hot and won’t start in anything but SAFEMODE, and that’s IF it’ll start. 🙁 I miss my friend. Makes it easy to keep up with my online life, to have a roving machine. A homeschooling mother needs to be here and there, doing this and that in…

  • Pooh’s Lullabee

    Lullabee, lullabee Honey bees in the tree Rest your wings ’til the morning light Lullabee, lullabee Honey bees in the tree Your honey is safe tonight Just dream to the tune I am singing Time to stop all that buzzing and stinging–ouch Lullabee, lullabee Honey bees in the tree All I want is a smackerel…

  • Weather — God’s in the details

    Well, it’s October 1st. At least the nights are acting like it, sort of, getting into the lower 60’s here in the Southern more parts of the US. Days are still too warm, into the 80’s. That could change though, any time. Weather is fun, isn’t it? I think so. My favorite weather is the…

  • Last day of Summer

    Yesterday was the Last (full) Day of Summer. Not a sad day at all. I’m ready for Autumn to come! My eldest son and I saw a V-formation of Geese last evening. Our first of the season. Telling sign of cooler days coming. Well, we live where Autumn is a long season, as is Summer.…

  • Rain, living water, life

    Rain. We got over 6 inches from Friday afternoon to this early a.m., so 2 plus days of rain. Thank you God for sending the rain! We really needed the rain. Things have been getting bad. We are on a 24/7 outdoor water ban. Bad for our newest trees. Really bad. Rain is good. God…

  • My baby is Two Years

    My baby is Two Years Old today! Happy Birthday! He was born at home two years ago, in the early morning hours. What a joyous birth it was. And it seems so long ago, but just yesterday as well. Two whole years already. He’s starting to really talk more, and just LOOKS so much more…

  • September 11th Media Fast

    September 11th Media Fast Oh what a wonderful quote: “Name one person who didn’t watch those planes crash into the World Trade Center and Pentagon and I will show you someone who lives under a rock. All of us remember being glued to the TV that day and the days following it as we tried…

  • New Kitty in the house! Room for more of some things …

    We have a new cat in the house. This makes for 6 in total. This was an adoption (and a young’un at that!). Some time back I wrote about our “Good Visitor Kitty”. He last was seen a couple of weeks ago — he never was absent from our front or back entries that long.…

  • Firelight & Candles

    Candle light is so refreshing, particularly in these days of modern electricity! It’s a dull day here, where we live, and it’s not raining, the wind isn’t blowing very much. It’s about 73 degrees F., but still, it’s dull and lifeless. A day like this the fireplace would be nice to use. Oh, we don’t…
