Turning The Page

Good morning, just wanted to fill you in on the latest. I, like a lot of people my age have retired from my public job. I am in the process of winding down my life to enjoy family and friends. I have a few hobbies, one of which includes my youngest granddaughter, Charley. We love to find butterflies and take their pictures. I hope to have more time to write, as it is something I really enjoy.

Have a blessed day!

Can I Call The Crows Daddy

Sitting in the corn field on a cool fall morning with my dad, watching him call in crows and shooting them.  As we sat there he explained that if we didn't shoot them they would eat the corn before we could it all gathered in.  I was about five and he would sometimes let me call them in for him.  I can remember sitting so close to him that I could feel him breath. It was so warm sitting next to him. I felt protected from the world. We would stay out and shoot til about mid morning then we would go back to the house.  Sometimes daddy would then go and work with some of the other men gathering their corn and mama would work on our field.  We worked on the half with the man who owned the land.  What that meant in those days was he got half of everything that we grew.  I remember watching mama pull the corn off the stalk and throw it in piles on the ground. I can close my eyes and see the piles across the field and they looked like they all had the same am...

Mama my inhaler is empty!!

As my mom and I were sitting in the kitchen watching the snow fall,when James comes thru and says his inhaler is empty.  What!! My inhaler is empty!  Don't you have an extra?  No, this is my spare, I forgot to tell you that it was almost empty.  Great, I don't know if we can get out to get to the drug store.  Deborah Ann, if you are gonna go, you better go now.  If you wait any longer it will get dark before you can get back.  I better call and see if the drug store is still open.  It seems like every time it snows somebody has to run out of medicine!  If it isn't James, it's mama or one of the other kids.  I hate this road when it snows!! James, get your coat on so you can go with your mama.  We barely got the car out of the driveway.  Thankfully there had been some traffic on the road, we don't have snow plows here.  If we can get to the main road we can get to town.  We slipped several times but we got to the drug ...

Fixing up My Space

My son and his family have been gracious enough to allow me to live with them since I have come back to Alabama.  We have finally gotten things moved around in the basement so that I can create myself an efficiency apartment.   There are so many things that I want to add to my space.  I've been looking for stuff online and have found several sites that have a lot of things that I want.    I found one site called "tiger direct" they have such neat and affordable stuff! I don't have a lot of cash to spend so I have to look for ways to save on all the things I buy.  I also need a new bed!  I have my own bathroom that I want to dress up.  So now that I will have a regular pay check coming in I'll be able to do lots of the things to really turn my space into a home. Have A Blessed Day!
