    Garden #2

    ByNicole June 1, 2020August 26, 2020

    Yes, you read that title correctly. I started my first garden in March. It sounded like a good thing… but garden number 2. Now I think I’ve seriously lost my mind. So here’s how we got to this point… When I finally decided to start a garden, I had 2 places chosen. One was where…

    Memorial Day Weekend – Coronavirus edition

    ByNicole May 28, 2020August 13, 2020

    This Memorial Day Weekend we found ourselves back at the lake. Last year we skipped out on the lake and went to KC house shopping, but this year, what is there to do?  We bought a camper earlier this year and had big plans for it. So far, the best it has done was to…

    What Started Out As (Part 2)…

    ByNicole May 19, 2020August 13, 2020

    Who would have thought that mowing a lawn would have turned into this? When we were told to stay indoors and social distance… I felt like I was lucky. I live in the country. I can easily social distance outside… and I’ve done just that. Plus, when you own livestock, you can’t just ignore them!…

    Surprise… We Bought a New Truck…

    ByNicole May 17, 2020August 13, 2020

    After our incident on January 1st (where coincidentally enough I asked if this was a sign of what the year would bring…) and buying the camper that caused the problem… We started discussing options to keep from having to replace a back window a second time. My husband’s truck was a short bed and while…

    I’ve Been Painting

    ByNicole May 15, 2020August 13, 2020

    I painted another purple cat again… If you didn’t know this about me, I absolutely LOVE red trucks. Old red trucks, but I drove a new red truck (2014) for 2 years (hubby drove it for about 2 before that or so). I used to hate red vehicles, but gosh, not anymore. Especially after driving…

    Mother’s Day – Coronavirus Style

    ByNicole May 14, 2020August 13, 2020

    If there is one thing this Coronavirus season has brought… it has brought a lot of people staying in and staying away. But… it has brought a lot of people wanting to get out into the great outdoors. Us included. Even though I’ve spent a lot of time outside. And for some reason, we thought…

    We had to Buy a New Bull

    ByNicole May 13, 2020August 12, 2020

    When I was a kid, my dad had red cows. I didn’t know anything more than that, but I knew we had red cows. My dad’s favorite story was about an Aussie (Australian Shepherd) dog we had. Dad would be telling how good of a cowdog Shaw was and people would scoff. Dad would tell…

    You need to smile

    ByNicole May 12, 2020

    It’s late at night and I’m sitting here thinking about smiling. I’m sooooooo tired of people telling me I don’t smile anymore. I’m also tired of people constantly asking me why I’m mad. Truthfully, I’ve been asked that my whole life, and I’m just really tired of it. First off, who walks around with a…

    Thoughts 6 Days Post Lockdown

    ByNicole May 11, 2020May 12, 2020

    I’m not here to debate if opening up was the thing to do or not. Not even going there. I don’t know the answer. I don’t get paid the big bucks to have that answer. Now that we are clear on that… I can’t remember if it was late last fall or early this spring,…

    What Started Out As (Part 1)

    ByNicole May 7, 2020August 13, 2020

    What started out as mowing the lawn… quickly ended into a project that wound up looking like this… Let’s start at the beginning. So, last summer my I went to mow our lawn. I had been borrowing my parent’s lawnmower… My lawnmower sucked. Dad’s lawnmower had a flat tire, so I started ours up. I…
