Aging gracefully
Living in a small town, it seems like every time I decide to make a quick trip to the store when I look my very worst, I see someone I know. After a long weekend at the lake, we came home to an empty fridge …

I want French fries! 😊
Luke and I did pretty well eating low carb this week, but my husband decided he did not want to join us (which makes it harder). Without detailing every meal, I will tell you that we ate no-bun cheeseburgers, grilled chicken salads, chicken/brocolli stir fry, taco crunch (without the crunch of tortilla chips), and a whole bunch of eggs! We made breakfast burritos using low carb tortillas. So good! Continue reading I want French fries! 😊

My parents had two couples that were their best lake buddies and I can’t remember a time that we camped without them. We would load up the campers and head out for the drive to the lake. This was back in the 70’s, so life wasn’t quite as complicated then. About halfway to Lake Wilson, we would pull over in an empty dirt parking lot at the side of the road. The folks called this the “beer stop”. We would get out to stretch our legs, and the adults would down a quick can of beer before loading back up for the remainder of the trip. GASP!! The memories of those weekends at Lake Wilson will forever be in my heart.
I now live in a town with a large lake just outside the city limits. This has been great, because even though we haven’t done a whole lot of camping, my kids have grown up enjoying the lake, especially in the summer. But this summer will be different because…… Continue reading The Clueless RV Club
There is good in each day
I am so sick of watching the news. My dear husband insists on blaring news channels from our television for hours at a time. It seems like most of his non-working hours are spent watching the news. Because I am so sick of the nasty …
