It’s kind of fun to write these posts, then schedule them for posting at a later time! It means that if I have a streak of creativity and write two or three posts at one sitting, I can set them up to post later, I don’t have to post them all at once. That’s whatContinue reading “Princess Nikki, take 2”

Week 3
Well, we’re 3/7ths of the way into week 3 of 2012… already, I’m falling behind on my pledge to post three times a week. In fact, had not a great friend, the marvelous creator of the Jesus In Love books, and her blog, Jesus In Love, written me an email and mentioned my pledge in it,Continue reading “Week 3”
Travis & Savannah
Scott and I moved to Council Bluffs in the summer of 1998. Soon after we got there, we adopted two little White German Shepherd puppies, Travis and his sister Savannah. Travis was also known, along with Savannah as “Monsters” or just “Monster”. Until recently, American Kennel Club. They are now considered a breed of their own,Continue reading “Travis & Savannah”
PC Kitty
Today, I was planning on writing about Miss Nikki, our big girl that we’ve had for 10+ years. But, I realized yesterday, as I was writing about Ixchel, and again today as I started to write about Nikki, that these pet stories all have a history. And so, to do them justice, that history needsContinue reading “PC Kitty”
Ixchel
The other day as I was writing about our Saturday with Dogs, I had planned to link various elements of that story to previous articles. And that’s when I discovered that I haven’t written any blog entries about our critters! At least, not in a very long time, and not at all about our youngestContinue reading “Ixchel”
Our Saturday with Dogs
Oh what have I resolved? Three blog posts a week? For those who post daily… or more often even than that – I have no idea how you do it! One can’t go even a little while without thinking about what to write, or the week is already running away and one is struggling toContinue reading “Our Saturday with Dogs”
Travel Plan 1
This plan is coming along much faster than I had expected! The other day, I started looking at prices for tickets to Orlando, FL, so that I could go visit my aunt and uncle and cousin who live there. I was startled to discover that as the spring progresses tickets get more expensive! Scott andContinue reading “Travel Plan 1”
The Year Ahead
We’re only 3 days into the New Year and already I’m worried about that promise Sunday! I really have no idea what I’m going to write 3 blog entries a week, when last year I was hard put to write 12 in the whole year! So, I’m going to ask you all to help meContinue reading “The Year Ahead”
New Years Day, 2012
In 2011, I posted a total of 12 blog entries. And so, today I thought “Self, in 2011 you successfully quit smoking (yeah!) – what can you do to top that as a New Years’ Resolution? Wanna know what I came up with? My New Years resolution for 2012 is (drum roll please)… To postContinue reading “New Years Day, 2012”
End of an Era
In 2011, I turned 53. Scott turned 49. We’ve been together 15 years, more than a quarter of our lives shared in common pursuit of happiness, forging a common bond. For much of that time, we’ve shared our home with others. After living for two years in apartments in West Omaha, we moved into aContinue reading “End of an Era”
