I totally skipped over 2020 here on my blog, but unfortunately, as most everyone, I pretty well just got through 2020 day by day, and did the best I could. I am starting this year with new goals and aspirations. Updating and continuing my blog is one that is important to me and at the […]

It’s 2021 and I’m back.

  Our property is like a little hidden jewel.  Our neighborhood is located within ten minutes of Waverly, in the Dry Creek Cabin Site community. This area was surveyed into approximately 60 large lots, by the Tennessee Valley Authority in the 1950’s and the lots were auctioned off.  The community stretches over several acres and […]

Our front entrance.

From the first time that I told Frank that I wanted to do a pergola on the back of the house, it was a battle.  I had planned since last November to have a bridal shower here for my daughter Kasie, and wanted to have it under a pergola.  Frank, in no way was in […]

The Pergola

I don’t know about you, but March is definitely one of my most favorite months, especially this year.  This winter has been very long and very cold, and I am over it.  Anyone that knows me, knows that I do not like the cold, at all!  When it’s cold outside, I am not motivated to […]

Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving is one of my favorite days of the year, and this one was no exception.  This year was especially wonderful, because for over a year I haven’t […]

Giving thanks everyday.

It’s good to have goals.

One Saturday morning, we looked out of our back window and saw this large group of white pelicans fly into our little cove and begin fishing.  I slipped down and zoomed in my camera and filmed them swimming all bunched up together, and watched as others flew in and joined them. It was a magical […]

Living in the Projects

My favorite bible verse is Proverbs 3:5-6.  Trust in Jehovah with all they heart, And lean not upon thine own understanding: In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he will direct thy paths. Frank and I aren’t the most “religious” people you will meet, but our relationship with our heavenly father comes first and is […]
