My nephew gave my sister and I the nickname of 'The Aunt Farm" when my sister moved in with me. I had two cats and she had one dog; but the neighbor's chickens are in our yard quite a lot and the property is a third of an acre. We laugh about the name a… Continue reading THE AUNT FARM…..ZOO?
THUNDER STORMS IN SEPTEMBER
The weather has definitely changed here in Northern California...rain and thunder. Earlier I heard the thunder and it sounded like cannons going off, but it only lasted for a few moments. The rain has been coming down off and on all day, but it's a weird kind of rain. It is hard to see unless… Continue reading THUNDER STORMS IN SEPTEMBER
THE HOUSE AND THE GARDEN
Here in the US we call the plot of land around our homes...'the yard'. In England they call that piece of ground...'the garden'. My yard is not quite a garden, but I am working on it. I have about 1/3 an acre and it is mostly weedy....not much grass and weeds that grow as tall… Continue reading THE HOUSE AND THE GARDEN
CHANGING SEASONS
Lately, when I get up in the morning and open my front door, I am met with cool, moist air; it's a change from the dry heat of the summer. There is a different smell in the air, a different feeling over all. The seasons are changing, bit early, but changing nonetheless. Change is a… Continue reading CHANGING SEASONS
LEARNING TO USE PHOTO APPS
I have a great deal to learn about how to use a computer. This past week I have been experimenting with photos....adding texts and other special effects. Some of the programs have been very frustrating to use. Most of it is likely user error, but it's still annoying to think you have a finished product… Continue reading LEARNING TO USE PHOTO APPS

BOUND TOGETHER BY OUR LABORS
LOOK AT ALL WE HAVE BUILT TOGETHER! We hear so much division in the news that it is easy to believe that there is no unity in our country. No matter what the subject or event, the news media plays up separate factions to the point where it appears that it is all we are....different… Continue reading BOUND TOGETHER BY OUR LABORS
PAINTING
My sister has been working on the house. She has laid the new flooring in the dining room, and painted the front door. There is one wall in the entry way painted and yesterday I painted the door on the coat closet. Next we will paint the rest of the entry and then she wants… Continue reading PAINTING
FICTION VERSUS FAITH
I like science fiction movies and books. They are great fun. Fantasy adventure for adults. But...they aren't real and when reading or watching something from the sci-fi genre, it is good to remember that. So many of these movies/ TV shows/ books try to present theories that exclude God and His creation of the universe.… Continue reading FICTION VERSUS FAITH
OUTRAGEOUS MISFORTUNE
Yesterday I stubbed my toe. I stubbed my toe and my big toenail was ripped away! Yes...ouch! But nearly two months ago, when I was in London, all the walking I did with my big toenail being pounded by the toe of my shoe, my toenail was injured. It was bruised and damaged and turned… Continue reading OUTRAGEOUS MISFORTUNE
