Two More Weeks

Today our governor extended the shelter at home for two more weeks. I’m not surprised, honestly. The reactions are mixed. Some of us expected it, others are furious. I know I’m lucky that I’m sti...

Checking In

Still working through this like everyone else. Some days are better than others. Yesterday was a good one. I started with a video conference with some of my kids. I got to see my kids as well as ...

Just Getting By

Well I suck on keeping going on this. I don’t even have an excuse, I mean, I ‘m here, all day. I am even on the computer for a big part of that day, talking with kids. It’s hard to sit here and p...

I'm back

I’ve missed this place so much! So many times I’ve wanted to post how things were going, but it seemed wrong to stay away for so long and only post when I needed it. I’m planning on staying aroun...

Good-bye 2018

It feels like I’ve been gone for so long from here. I’m still adjusting to this wifi and the limits of it. I went over so much the first month, I’ve been paranoid and not even turning it on most ...

Can't get used to it

It’s been a while since I had reliable internet and a working laptop, so I’ve gotten out of the habit of coming here, but I miss y’all. Things have been ok here, We had some severe weather the ot...

Let's Try This Again

This internet business is going to drive me crazy. Because I had to go with the mifi for internet I have a cap on my data. The young man explained how to monitor the data to me, but either I misu...

Just the highlights

I’d love to say that many things have happened since I was able to write, but lol life it fairly simple. You’ve been saved some whining entries about the end of school. :) It was a busy summer, I...

I'm Back!!

Wow! After way too long fighting Suddenlink to get my Internet fixed, I broke down and went another route (ATT). My poor computer is still updating, so I’m keeping this short. It’s going to take ...

So sad

My internet issues continue. I really do t think they can be resolved without rewiring the house, and landlord won’t be doing that. Then I heard about the notification and PB closing. That makes ...

Waving

I haven’t run away. For the past month I’ve been out of internet 90% of the time. It’s some about this black hole of a house. I hope to be back soon. I can’t catch up on my phone, but I plan on r...

New Year's Eve Survey

I still need to catch up with some of you, and I will in the next few days. In the meantime, I thought I’d do a survey to end the year. What was the single best thing that happened this past year...

Christmas 2017

First, thanks to those who left me such sweet notes. It really does mean a lot. I’m doing ok. Christmas actually turned out to be pretty good. My parents, sister, and the girls had our Christmas ...

Still Here

I’m still here. Just struggling. My internet at home is bad…I don’t know if it’s the house, the service, the equipment, or some combination of them, but I don’t have Internet most evenings. Schoo...

Catching Up

I’m working on getting caught up on reading everyone. My internet isn’t being the most cooperative, but I’m getting there. It’s been a very lazy day today. I didn’t feel great last night, and di...

Did anyone else get the OD email? Just curious. Here’s the email. I suspect I got it because I had been a member for well over 10 years. Once it goes live, I think I will do the free trial. It sa...

Day Off

We were out of school today for the Pecan Festival. It seems nuts having school out for a festival, but it shuts down one of the towns, and all of our kids and families attend. I had planned on a...

This is a little church on the way to my parents’. It’s the oldest standing church in the parish (county). They still hold services there occasionally, and they maintain the cemetery behind it. I...

I spent the day at my parents’ today. I brought some goodies for them. That strawberry concoction was divine!! It was a low-key day, and when I got ready to leave, I saw this guy hanging out on...

I’m still way behind in reading y’all if everything would slow down some, and the Internet would cooperate I could get caught up. I spent most of the day at school today, getting caught up on gra...

I am one very pooped teacher. We had family night tonight. For me that means Beta Sweet Shop (a bake sale that we use as one of our main fund raisers. Normally, high school Beta Students run it f...

I’m way behind on reading and posting. Here’s a couple of pictures, this is what I have been coming home to every day lately. Luna has discovered that pulling the movies out is fun for some reaso...


Book Description

I’ve been on OD for 12 or 13 years (or longer). I don’t want to jump ship, but I don’t want to lose my friends, either. This place is no OD, but it’s a safe spot at least.
