The little things

March 29, 2018
My mom always wanted ducks or geese on our pond, but we figured our guard dog would kill them or make them fly away.  Normally, he will go after anything in our pastures or ponds because he's guarding our livestock (he even makes birds fly off).  So imagine my surprise this morning when LJ told&h...

      If you could change one choice you made in your life, what would it be? There are plenty of choices that I could change, but I don't think I would.  Those choices have made me the person I am today. Sure, I could easily say that I wouldn't have met R, but then I…

    It's been a while since I've written.  I don't have internet access at home, and I don't feel like trying to write an entry on my phone. I check in at work and will write entries when I'm here. There isn't much going on, but I did purchase a new(er) vehicle though... a Chevy Equinox.…

    I don't have time for a full entry so it's going to be highlights today. The vacuum is dead.. The whole piece that broke wasn't available from Dyson. I am the new owner of a Shark. - How sad is it that I was excited about a new vacuum? It's raining again. The rivers on each…

    My vacuum that is. Normally LJ grabs the vacuum (to keep from doing other cleaning) but last night I decided to do it before he got home from an after school event.  About halfway through vacuuming it starts making a horrible noise and smoking.  I shut it off and tried to figure out what happened...

    CPAP machine: 3 JC: 0 I've never had a problem with change, but this CPAP machine isn't making it easy to adapt. For insurance purposes I have to use it at least 4 hours per night.  Last night I clocked 3 hours and 45 minutes, which is about the same as the previous two nights.…

    First, thank you for the notes on my previous entry. I know that things may not have turned out differently, but it was something that had been on my mind a lot. Yesterday I left work early to pick up my newest night time partner. I was diagnosed a couple weeks ago with moderate sleep…

    Have you ever promised someone something, but when the time came you couldn’t or wouldn’t follow through?  It happened to me with my mom and I carry so much guilt over it. However, I’m not sure that I could do it if I had another chance. This is the whole story of my mother’s death……
