Crazy freak rain storm

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 6h

About 45 minutes ago, we were outside working on our truck when it started to sprinkle when I thought that’s nothing. It’s just gonna sprinkle for a couple of minutes the rhino pass. It’ll be OK. Well a couple minutes after that...

New Family Member.

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 12 Aug

A week or two ago, she-child brought a kitten up to the house. We had seen her lurking around the yard for a couple of days but had no idea where she came from. She ended up giving her a bath, discovering she was a girl, and...

Insomnia.

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 12 Aug

It’s nearing 2:30, and I’m still wide awake and kicking. Which really isn’t anything new. I honestly can’t remember the last time I got a full night’s sleep, except for when I’ve been very sick or heavily medicated because of...

Plans for Wednesday.

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 12 Aug

It’s going to be a kind of busy, but not really kind of day. Chris has some work to do on our truck. He tried to get it all done tonight, but when he took the wheel off to replace the hub, he realized we didn’t have the right...

What’s on the boob tube? Wee hours of August 12, 2026

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 12 Aug

I’ve actually managed to get some stuff done after dinner. I had been letting some chores slide and finally had some time and energy to get some stuff accomplished. That’s why I’m kind of surprised I’m still up. Not really...

What's for din? August 11th, 2026

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 12 Aug

I expected to post this a lot earlier, especially since we ate around 5:30. But life got busy, as it tends to do. Tonight, I made a honey-baked ham, green beans, cheddar broccoli rice, and crescent rolls. I left Chris in charge...

First day of school was a success

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 11 Aug

Our kids had their first day of school today. I haven’t seen our oldest to know how his day went, but our youngest had a good day. I don’t think either one of them was really ready to go back, but I told them they didn’t really...

Dinners in the crock pot…

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 10 Aug

…well sort of. I have the roast in the crock pot and will throw the potatoes in in about two hours or so. I am however about to make lunch. Steak subs! Gotta love a sale on steak ums. Do you know what you’re having for...

What's on the boob tube? August 9th, 2026

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 9 Aug

We’ve been watching movies just about every night for the last few nights, but I haven’t decided on a movie for tonight. So instead, we’re watching YouTube videos of people talking about chest-cam footage from arrests. The...

What is a "sometimes" candy for you?

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 9 Aug

We went to Walmart today, and I grabbed a candy at the registers that I don’t buy very often. For some reason, though, it sounded really good. What was it, you ask? Fruit Mentos. Not a candy that I—or probably anyone—thinks...

We had a couple errands we had to run in town today so we decided to swing by KFC and grab dinner. Fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy and mac and cheese. It came with biscuits but I got garlic bread at Wally World so thats...

Sunday

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 9 Aug

Look I’m alive. We just got back from town. Had to go to Walmart and pick up dinner. I’ll write about dinner later. But Walmart was a madhouse. School starts Tuesday here and it was very obvious that many many people waited...

I had intended to post the second installment of this sooner, but what can I say... life got in the way. And even if it didn't, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. I am a HUGE fan of The Presidents of the United States....

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 3 Aug

What's on the boob tube?

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 3 Aug

We got home a little over an hour ago and had a few small chores to take care of before we could finally kick back. Once everything was done, we smoked, got comfortable, and settled in to relax for the rest of the evening. I...

What's for din? August 3rd, 2026

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 3 Aug

She child wh, and her boyfriend wanted to go see Spider-Man, so we took them out to eat beforehand. Since we were already in Destin, we stopped by Red Brick Pizza. They split a half cheese, half pepperoni pizza, and Chris and I...

Why does it feel so late?

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 2 Aug

I haven't slept well the past few nights, but even so, when I looked at the clock just now, I was sure it was going to be much later than it actually was. I had to do a double take when I saw it was only 9:20 p.m. Oh well. I'm...

Small wins.

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 2 Aug

I just cashed out a couple of survey and side hustle apps. It isn't a lot of money, but it's enough to cover a couple of gallons of gas or grab a cheap lunch tomorrow. I'll call that a win. Now I'm just hoping the rest of my...

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 2 Aug

I am using voice to text with this mainly because I don’t feel like getting my laptop out. So as always, it’s gonna be a little wonky. I actually didn’t have to cook tonight or go get food. Chris’s mom made fried pork chops,...

What are you doing?

April @thislittlepennyearns (69254) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 2 Aug

Are you the kind of person who can focus on just one thing at a time? If you've been around here for any length of time, you already know that's definitely not me. If it looks like I'm doing one thing, chances are I'm actually...
