to a nursing LOW … But first – we had a wonderful Thanksgiving, our kids, et. al. joined us for our (now traditional) bacon wrapped herb/butter encrusted masterpiece. [OK – this one was not so beautiful on the outside – I opted for thick-cut bacon … delicious, but not so pretty!] Even our oldest seemed …
I found my mojo this week! We are finally moving things along in the glass area of the studio. I’m working on an ornament request, but I’m moving spoon rests (no photo) and night lights along too! Yay! I also had to keep up with the Ladies this week, giving them another ‘pumpkin treat’, a …
We had a great Thanksgiving day! DH and I prepped all we could the night before, including our (now) traditional bacon-wrapped herb-butter turkey, green bean casserole, hanky pankies and spanakopitas (although we didn’t bust into those on Thursday). On Thanksgiving day, I made my mashup of 3 different Whiskey Apple Stuffing recipes and our family …

Cuz that’s how we move forward! But first … Look at this! Aunt Piggy and Uncle Clyde ‘lording’ over the Neo babies … Too Cute! And back to baby steps: We got the new shelving unit up – and full. I like it. Sure, I’d like it bigger, BUT … I have my lesser-used (coe96 …
I’m not dead … YET! It’s just been an absolutely INSANE few weeks! Lets recap: The twins turned 21 … SAGE WORDS: Life doesn’t get any easier as they age – Just Sayin’! I’ve got a kid in Ghana RIGHT NOW! It’s too long of a story to get into, but let’s all just say …
I got home from work Sunday morning (12/31/17) to find my studio furnace had died, literally exploding within itself. Fortunately, the damage was to the furnace only. My studio was a brisk 49 degrees, and the water lines didn’t freeze. Goodbye 2017 and goodbye furnace. As we roll into the 2nd day of 2018, I …
