ACORNS

I have always had a thing for acorns. They are always different, each unique and  sizes very depending on the tree. They make me happy!

My goal is to fill this moonshine jug!

Thank you to all my acorn gatherers!!!

Never Gonna Be Alone

Nickelback 

Time, is going by, so much faster than I,
And I'm starting to regret not spending all of it with you.
Now I'm, wondering why, I've kept this bottled inside,

So I'm starting to regret not telling all of it to you.
So if I haven't yet, I've gotta let you know

You're never gonna be alone!
From this moment on, if you ever feel like letting go,
I won't let you fall,
You're never gonna be alone!
I'll hold you 'till the hurt is gone.

And now, as long as I can, I'm holding on with both hands,
Cause forever I believe that there's nothing I could need but you,
So if I haven't yet, I've gotta let you know

You're never gonna be alone!
From this moment on, if you ever feel like letting go,
I won't let you fall,
When all hope is gone
I know that you can carry on
We're gonna take the world on
I'll hold you 'till the hurt is gone

Oh,
You've gotta live every single day,
Like it's the only one, what if tomorrow never comes?
Don't let it slip away,
Could be our only one, you know it's only just begun
Every single day,
May be our only one, what if tomorrow never comes?
Tomorrow never comes

Time, is going by, so much faster than I,
And I'm starting to regret not telling all of this to you.

You're never gonna be alone!
From this moment on, if you ever feel like letting go,
I won't let you fall,
When all hope is gone
I know that you can carry on
We're gonna take the world on
I'll hold you 'till the hurt is gone

I'm gonna be there all the way,
I won't be missing one more day,
I'm gonna be there always,
I won't be missing one more day.

Thank you John! 

Happy Truth

FUN THING

Go Cart Races

As all 20 carts came out of turn two all hell broke loose. Nick’s cart was end over end, all the carts were in the same tight area. When the dust cleared, it was a nightmare. Samantha and Robbin were over the fence in a second (wife & mom), half the crowd was over that fence in two. As they pulled someone else’s cart off Nick’s body, we all held our breath. The carts that were still fine were moved, one drivers leg was pretty chewed up. But Nick was still on the ground, with people all around him. 

Standing next to his two darling daughters on the visitors side of that fence made the time stand still. When the staff finally got him to his feet on that dirt track, I think everyone took a collective deep breath. I don’t think anything I have ever witnessed had been so scary. 

Three broken ribs was the worst of the body damage on Nick. His cart is toast. 

It was an amazing evening. The friendship and family bonds there at that little spot in the middle of “Kentucky nowhere” were incredible. 

I am so glad things turned out as well as they did when all was said and done. I am grateful to have witnessed the passion and love that family shares. ❤️

Speak To Everyone

PROTEST

I don’t like spiders.
Yet I like having my porch light on at night.
The light makes my little home and my neighborhood
look more family friendly
and less accessible by the wrong sort of people.
However, the bugs feel welcome as well.
I have to sweep off my doorway, post box and light
on a very regular bases.
Today, getting home from work,
I wanted to run the other way, due to all the spider webs.
So I got my broom and my spray.
I swept them all down.
Then I sprayed the entire front of my little home.
A dozen or more spiders crept out to protest.
So I sprayed them some more.
I wish they would go back to hell where they belong.
I don’t like spiders.

HOUSE HUNTING

Going "House Hunting" this weekend. 
There is a house on a hill that I need to see. 
Maybe it's time for me to think about a 
New Fork In The Road!!!!

CHALLENGE

"A Strong Woman 
Looks A Challenge In The Eye 
And Gives It A Wink"

It has been said that 
Strong women terrify men,
because they are not afraid to leave. 

I say
Don't Be Terrified. 
Once My Heart Is On Board
I HAVE YOUR BACK
I WILL FIGHT BESIDE YOU
I WILL ROCK YOUR WORLD
I AM YOURS FOR THE LONG RUN
No matter what! Time After Time

My Garden

My little garden didn’t do very well this years. 

This was last week.

This is today. 

Quote of The Day

She’s badass with a good heart, soft but strong. Unapologetic and honest. 

She’s the type of woman you go to war beside, the type of woman you marry. 

R. H. Sin

Captain

I was speaking to one of my travel reps today. 

Her name is Sarah. 

She was so helpful. 

I asked if she had an H at the end of her name. 

She said she does. 

I told her that my daughter, Sara, 

always said she was the only Sara in her class 

without an H. 

(There were always several other 

Sarah’s in her grade school classes.) 

I told my rep that if I could have let me children 

choose their own names I would have. 

She agreed that everyone would 

probably love that option. 

"However," she said, "there may end up being names like

'Captain Dino Chicken Nugget'!!!" I agreed.

When I called her again, later in the day, 

she answered the call and I asked if this was "Captain"!!!

Thought/Quite of The Day

Weak people see flaws in others

Where strong people see potential

What they really see is

Part of Themselves

Thoughtful Flowers

These arrived the day I returned from my trip. So very nice to be thought of. 
Getting flowers from a man is a very very very rare event for me, I was very touched!
