It's official, summer has begun. Now all I have to do is go looking for all the pretty painted peanuts hidden in my yard.

       How long will we be seeing images like these? My guess would be for many generations.                                                                          Especially if we remain so dependent on oil for so many things in our lives.                          Just because we can do something does not mean we should. Are we do desperate for oil that we have to drill  down a mile under water to get it?  Or Is this all because of greed? No regard for what is affected a...

 I decided to change the look of my blog. What do you think? Different. But I'll keep it for awhile, I think. Any who, it's Friday and I have the day off. It has become slow once again at work. I use to be able to tell you how we would be working at what time of year, but no more. The economy is such a mess I don't know if I'll ever be able to say how good work is for a very long time. It makes things so much more scarier. Never knowing if things are secure or not. Not knowing if where you are working will always be there. It's scary times we live in. Not only is the economy a mess but you have the wars going on that should not be happening the way they are happening. People losing their lives for what? I guess I'll never understand why some wars happen. Unfortunately some are very necessary. Like the first and second world wars. But others happen in way that should never have. We all know which ones we feel they are.     The oil disaster in the gulf. Thi...

This is Mr. Gobbles I was trying to post a video of him but for some reason it's not working. I guess I'll have to give my tec guy a call so he can walk me through the problem. And if you are wondering if we are putting any food out for him, the answer is no. He just likes my turkey hens.

First bear sighting of the year You see that black spot between the two trees? Well that is a bear that was in a neighbors field Sunday night. I'm almost sure that Saturday morning there was one that was so close to our place that it spooked the horses causing them to go through the fence and run down the road to a neighbors field. Now this one is just a small one and according to what I've heard one of the people in the neighborhood has bear bait on his land. He is said to have commented  that he had his trail camera set up near the bait and has gotten pictures of 16 different bear. In my book that is to many bear for our neighborhood. We are only about three mile out of town and there are allot of dwellings in this area.  I enjoy wildlife just as much as everyone else but, I really don't think they should be feed in that way in an area that has as many people as we have. If you are going to bait something like bear it should be done in a remote area of forest far away fro...

I'm having a very quiet night. Maybe a little too quiet. Nothing really worth noting happened around me today. Work was the same as usual. People still like to cause you to feel unsure about everything. I should say something that is interesting but what................... I could comment on the oil, but I think there is enough being said about that. Nothing I can say would be any different from what has been said already. Just the blame game will be kicking it into high gear now that the oil is starting to hit shorelines. I could say something about politics but, it don't really matter. The same old kind of people are always in charge. They may try to sound different but in the long run nothing is ever done any different. Who can grease who's palm the most. It don't matter what you call yourself, your still someone who only wants to sit behind a desk and try to tell people like me how things for me should be, while they go to parties where people will stroke the...

Here it is 5:16 in the am. I wanted to stay in bed longer except the husband had his buzz saw going and would not shut it off. I decided to check things out on line for awhile. I now have my new computer so I've been checking it out. I do have a web cam but I'm not to sure how I will use it, for sure. But hopefully once I'm comfortable with it I will use it from time to time to post something here. In other news it looks like winter outside, again. It should be melted by this afternoon, I hope. It looks like the community theater will be finally putting on a play. It's called Shout! A Mod Musical. I will be back stage as I don't sing very good at all. I hope they can make a go of it or this just might be the last show ever. If that happens I will have to find something else to get involved in, so every once in awhile I can break up my very boring life. Someone said I should write a play based on the letters that were sent to my grandpa. I have thought about...
