Halloween, hope yours is spooky

Ours will pretty much be the same as every day.  We don’t give out candy, because the dog freaks out.  He thinks it is the pizza delivery man.  Hmm, think we’ve order too much pizza in the past?  So we will sit at home with the lights off, fireplace lit and watch the tele.
Okay, so [...]

Happy Nevada Day

I know Nevada day is really on 10/31, however, this is the actual day the state has given their workers off as well as the school, etc.
This year we didn’t have as many questions about Nevada Day.  On our closed sign, I put Nevada Admissions Day.  The California people understood that one.  No offense to California [...]

Who let the dogs out

Yesterday, the shop foreman brought his black lab to work.   The dog was just getting over being sick and he didn’t want him home alone if he needed to go out and do his thing. 
I just love this dog.  He’s big and very well behaved.  When hubby had his back surgery in Reno, the shop [...]

Spooky

As we get closer to Halloween, I was going to write about another spooky story from my past, however … as I was finishing the last post … I had thought my hubby was standing  just inside the hall.  I saw a figure standing there and there was a denseness like a body was there and then it [...]

In a blink of an eye

And October, 2009 is about to disappear.  Two more months and we will be into 2010 … yikes …
My expiration of my driver’s license is 12/12/12 – boogah, don’t ya think?  That would be a good day to play the lottery.
Today was a pretty good day.  One of our customer’s brought us a bottle of [...]

They’ll be swingin’

The swing we bought in August (I think it was August), the one we got a great deal on.  Well, it has been sitting on the carport since we brought it home.  I have been going back and forth on whether to put it together or wait until spring.  Out of the blue, hubby asked [...]

It’s Friday !!

Well, for most of you that is.  However, it’s my second Saturday of the week. 
So what is new?
My Vegas sis called and I am a proud great or is it grand aunt of a baby boy.  Vegas sis has a grandson to shake things up in her granddaughters world.   LOL … plus it’s a baby [...]

Not of this world

I’ve posted before about us being in this world temporarily.  We really are here for a short time and then, when we die, we can either have eternal life or not. 
I’ve been reading the first book of a series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins called The Jesus Chronicles.  The first book is “John’s Story, The [...]

What the heck was that??

Raven vs Viking game … did they go to the stadium and forget the team? 
Wow, that was an unworthy win for the Vikings.  The Ravens played so much better through the game.  They only won, because the Raven’s kicker missed the field goal.  I would hate to be the kicker on the bus and plane [...]

SURPRISE!!!

Hubby took me to Apple Hill today.  It’s only 100 or so miles away, but it takes 2+ hours to get there, since the road is curvy and you have to climb over the Sierras.  Note to self, never never never go on a weekend ever ever again!!  LOL … oh my word … people everywhere, [...]
