I hope that everyone is doing well. It is a very wet day here in central Mississippi. The rain started almost 5 hours ago and has been a constant heavy to light and back to heavy pour. This has brought our temperature down to a...

On A Search

Marie @Tampa_girl7 (53340) • United States 21 Aug

I need some help. I have never liked dish washing gloves. I tried a few over the years, but found that I prefer to wash dishes bare handed. My son has a difficult time with the dish soaps irritating his skin and I have tried...

A friend of mine celebrated her birthday on Monday. Her husband took her to a restaurant for her birthday and she had a special dessert. It is called a crazy sundae. It looks amazingly scrumptious. My blood sugar is going up just...

Where Is My Husband ?

Marie @Tampa_girl7 (53340) • United States 25 Jul

The last week or two there have been days that I barely see my husband. It’s been like we are ships passing in the night. It has been very busy for him at work. He is working tonight, but they called him in early, so it will be a...

Hello, I hope that you are all well. The sun is shining here and it’s been a pretty morning. I mowed the day before yesterday, but didn’t finish up the weed eating and may mow around things a bit better. What are you up too ? I...

Caught It

Marie @Tampa_girl7 (53340) • United States 14 Jul

I thought that I was out of the woods, but I caught my husband’s cold. My throat felt funny Friday night. I woke up Saturday morning realizing why. I am grateful that I have been sicker. The nights are worse than the days. I seem...

His Tooth Broke

Marie @Tampa_girl7 (53340) • United States 6 Jul

My poor husband broke the bottom part of one of his upper front teeth when he was a teenager. He was swimming and somehow hit it on the concrete pool. It was repaired and lasted until yesterday. I guess after nearly 50 years it...

In our neighborhood in West Virginia there have been a lot of black bear sightings. I wouldn’t want to get close to one, but this one sure is cute. Thankfully they aren’t bothering anyone. I have always been told that black bears...

I’m not sure if I’ve shared this photo before. I have a handful of photos from this 1971 John Denver concert in Charleston, West Virginia. His song “Country Roads” was on its way to becoming a hit. He was performing from the...

I Was Shocked

Marie @Tampa_girl7 (53340) • United States 25 Jun

My sister sent me this photo a few weeks ago. I was totally shocked when she told me this snake lives under their home and that they like that he lives on their property. She said that he is a good snake. That he is not poisonous...

Do You Remember These ?

Marie @Tampa_girl7 (53340) • United States 23 May

My husband and I were talking about foods that disappeared from the stores. These chips are one thing that I recalled loving. My husband didn’t recall them. I haven’t had any since the early 70’s and looked them up. Seems they...

I May Faint

Marie @Tampa_girl7 (53340) • United States 12 May

I just tried my internet and it seems to be working. It’s a bit sluggish, but it has been in the past too sometimes. Hopefully it stays on. It has been off for over three weeks. We were losing hope. I am grateful.
