Fancast-keepin me sane in my HGTV deprived world

You’ll remember that part of the reason I started a blog was to give me another “hobby” so that I would not go into deep dark depression over losing my satellite service (that is a severe exaggeration of course!). Anyway, I was kinda looking forward to not being able to have the TV on all [...]

My Favorite “Vintage” movies (60’s-80’s)

In chronological order:
1. Magnificent Seven (1960) I really love this movie. It stars Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson, Eli Wallach, Robert Vaughn, Brad Dexter and James Coburn. It’s set in the old West. These seven gunfighters are hired to protect a Mexican farming village from Banditos (bad Mexican dudes!). A WONDERFUL cast, and [...]

The Bravos are finally over the .500 mark! I just know that they will not sink that low again this year! Smoltz has the opportunity to be the 16th pitcher to accumulate 3,000+ strikeouts tonite if he can get 4 more! Josh and I had been watching games on SS at Mom and Dad’s, but [...]

Elwin and Trixie

This is a rarity! These two are usually duking it out.

SOLD!!! (almost…)

I am so excited! I’ve been trying to sell our bedroom set that we (foolishly) bought when we bought this house. I say “foolishly” for 2 reasons: 1. because it was way too big for our bedroom, and 2. because I could’ve found some used furniture that I liked just as well for hundreds less [...]

Last Week!

Last week was very busy, which is why I have not posted since Monday. Josh and I made a sofa table with bookshelf legs, we went to Alabama to visit friends and for Josh to play at a Disciple Now, and we had a party here at the house in honor of my sister in [...]
