Kids come down for Thanksgiving

I have the grandkids for Thanksgiving. I am so excited. I miss them so much. Of course I miss being in the city, out here it is boring to the point that I am going to look for a part time job. But the grandkids here help and we have been having a good time. My oldest granddaughter Brianna dyed her hair black for halloween. It was suppose to be temporary dye, but I think its going to stay for a while.

Oh I Wish

If I could afford to feed a horse, I would certainly try to get one even thou everyone here thinks I have rocks in my head. It would keep me around cause I would have an animal I could not take with me. The first pic is the horse and the second one is Brianna on the horse. The horses owner will teach the kids to ride but won't teach me cause she don't have the time. All I need is the basics a refresher course since I have not been on a horse for over 25 years!

Good News

Well, I got some good news. My daughter and her husband are looking for a house where I can move back up there with them and figure out if I really want to live down here. There is so much lack of communication, and Dad won't listen to reason. He just starts acting like a little kid. I cant handle that and then it don't matter what I tell the husband, he has to repeat EVERY word to dad. I can't even have a conversation with him without dad getting involved. I told Jack last night that my time here was short and he wanted to know why, so I told him that I don't fit in around here, I can't have a personal conversation with him, when he don't get his own way, he acts like a 4 year old. All I feel like here is a housekeeper and a taxi driver since neither of them drive. Dad won't let any modifications be made to the house although he keeps telling me its my house, as long as I stay out of the front room while they are watching what THEY want to watch, all I want to do is put storm windows on to help keep the warmth in during the winter and a fan on the ceiling to help circulate the warm air when we have some. I am only allowed to run the A/C for 30 minutes a day when it is hot, not enough to even feel a slight 1/2 degree difference. But my time here is short lived, soon I will be able to move out.

Catching up

Well alot has happened since I last wrote on this blog. I should follow it more closely but face book and farmville have taken over. After I moved down here it is like walking on egg shells. I don't know whether or not to say anything about anything cause every time I do, my Dad starts argueing. Oh well, Clonozapam helps.

On May 14, My son's birthday, both my brother and I got baptized. Now I have siz baptisimal brothers and sisters, two sisters that I talk with and am friends with. I am going to try to put the baptisimal pictures up here but if they don't load due to my snail mail connection (I live out in no mans land) We are lucky we got phone service! If the Pictures don't load, visit my facebook profile and look at the pictures there please.

Guess they uploaded but you can see more at face book. The first photo is my friend and baptisimal sister Theresa and Pastor Ed Nelson, the next one is my brother Stanley and Pastor Marvin Clark, the third one is me and Pastor Marvin Clark and the last one is my friend and baptisimal sister Erline and Pastor Marvin Clark. Life has lots of blessings. Now I belong to a family of SDA's.

My Grandkids

Well I have my grandkids for the week. We are having a good time. Only wish Jack (the husband) would learn to clean up after himself. He is such a slob I dont know if I can keep living in this environment. Plus he is lazy. I get up each morning and clean one part of the house and neither him nor my dad appreciate it. They live in the filth for so long that they dont know how to clean up after themselves. My daughter and her husband with their son Ryleigh are coming tomorrow and I cant get the house clean enough cause I cant touch anything that Jack has spread all over the table and on his end table. Anyone have any suggestions?

Grand Kids on Horse

Here is some pictures of the grand kids on the horse. The horse belongs to Ellen and Joe but they let the girls ride Dutchess. The other two horses is Duett and Blackberry.

Well its almost Christmas time and we have already had snow twice. We may get now again tonite. Kinda untimely cause we have to clean out the ashes from the stove tomorrow. Gonna be kinda cold till the ashes get cold so they can come out. Dad keeps the house pretty warm for us all here.

Life here is pretty slow going. You get to the point where you are waiting for the mail to come its a little boring. Course when all the rain goes away and we get sporing there will be a garden to put in and take care of. My share is weeding the garden so I can do that early in the mornings. Then my brother is going to add on to his house so that will keep me busy during the spring and summer, then harvesting in the fall so winter is my only not so much to do winter.

I do manage to go into town (15 miles one way) at least once a week and I go to Sabbath on Saturday so I get some social interaction! Of course I have my little brother, big brother, husband and Dad here. Dad and Jack (the husband) sit all day and watch western reruns, my little brother works all day and my big brother sits and watches 3ABN all day. Id rather watch 3ABN then rerun westerns all day, so I watch that and my soaps!
