    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…

    Breaking a Calf to Lead

    ByNicole May 4, 2020August 10, 2020

    We’ve been having fun around these parts. When you can’t go anywhere or do anything, might as well make the most of it the best way you can.  When I was younger, I wanted nothing more than to show at the fair. While I showed horses so I could compete that way, that’s not really…

    Opening Back Up… Slowly… Day 51

    ByNicole May 3, 2020May 11, 2020

    I want to add a precursor that I didn’t write this. Gosh, I wish I had because do you know how many times I’ve seen this going around on Facebook? But… there is a lot of truth held in these words. Be Kind. Everyone is fighting their own battle. I won’t sit here and blow…

    I’m a Jerk… Coronavirus Day 49

    ByNicole May 1, 2020May 11, 2020

    I’m a jerk and here’s a picture of a load of bricks. Scratching your head yet? Well… Here’s the story… My hubby (and I…) bought a camper just before all this coronavirus stuff hit the roof. The sad fact of the matter was, we had discussed this last fall, but then nothing more was really…

    Book Review: The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

    ByNicole April 30, 2020May 26, 2020

    Hubby used to drive an hour to work and an hour home. Because of that, he used to listen to books on the drive. This was one of the books he “read” and he just about “ran off the road” laughing. Not really, but something just cracked him up. He told me and told me…

    Book Review: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

    ByNicole April 29, 2020May 26, 2020

    I started reading this book. I never made it all the way through. It’s interesting. I didn’t remember a lot of what I read… nor do I remember watching the movie. What the heck? I remember Professor Umbridge and I hate Professor Umbridge, but… oy! I couldn’t even remember watching this movie. Hubby would say,…

    Crazy Weather… Coronavirus Day 47

    ByNicole April 29, 2020August 9, 2020

    I mentioned the other day that the weather has been crazy! Well, that’s no joke. But what’s really interesting is… we haven’t heard a whole lot about tornadoes lately. I’m scared of tornadoes. But they seem to be fairly scarce these days. I can’t help but wonder if they got wind of Coronavirus. haha. There…

    Septic Problems – Coronavirus Day 43 & 44

    ByNicole April 27, 2020August 9, 2020

    I saw this meme and it cracked me up. Seriously… I think my husband kind of feels this way with everything I’ve made him do since this whole quarantine time. I haven’t sat still once. Not once. That included this weekend, but this weekend’s project wasn’t my idea. It all started last weekend. Let me…

    Planting the Garden – Coronavirus Day 42

    ByNicole April 25, 2020August 9, 2020

    This weather has been nuts. I swear, it goes along with this year. This year has been nuts. Wow! So weird, in fact I put my sweatshirt on backward this morning. Oy! But, it’s the perfect time to plant a garden since we’re all sitting at home with nothing to do. And that’s just what…
