Happy Birthday, Outlaw!
As most of you know, Outlaw is my longest running member and that is worth mentioning; that’s 14 years, if you’re wondering. I wish you a very happy birthday, Outlaw. My wish for you is that you will do something for yourself today that will make you smile. You deserve more smiles, less stress and nothing but happy days! Please take a minute of your time and wish this amazing person a happy birthday for me, and because I think everyone should be celebrated on the anniversary of their birth.

Windy Weather and a Storm
I woke up to the wind breaking up against the house and what a great sound it is. I love the sound of a storm blowing in, whether it’s the Texas thunderstorms I experienced in the hill country, or the snow storms rolling into the valley off of the mountains of Nevada. It’s all beautiful to me. I find Mother Nature to be a fascinating beast. As much as I miss the Texas thunderstorms, I love the snow storms I experience here. Granted, it’s just a lot of noise right now, with gloomy skies and cold winds, but the snow is coming and it’s something I look forward to. And,…

Snow and Cold Weather
It was a beautiful weekend in Nevada. Cold temperatures arrived Friday and through Saturday the wind was hooking it until the storm arrived. It snowed from Saturday night through yesterday afternoon and it was beautiful! This morning it started to snow for a few minutes but didn’t last long. The temps are dropping this afternoon and we are in for a wintry week of weather. I’m looking forward to it, although, our propane bill will sky rocket. How was your weekend and how’s the weather?

Hot and Friskie!
It’s your birthday! We might not see much of you these days, but you are often talked about (all good things *wink*), always missed (not only by me) and thought of (especially with the brace face lady). No matter what you choose to do today, I wish you nothing but the happiest of days! I know I speak for everyone when I say, “whatever you do, stay safe and wear a helmet, life jacket and some padded gloves if you decide to blow up a tree stump in the middle of a lake.”

More Gifts
Nicster, you have always been generous and thoughtful; thank you. I so appreciate you, more than you know. I have been saying for awhile now that I need to get back into reading, but by the time I sign off of cam at night, I’m too tired to open a book. That changes this week, now that I have “Helmet for My Pillow” by Robert Leckie that I’ve been wanting to read for some time now. The shirt I will definitely be wearing on cam, and it’s a color that I don’t have, which means I will have no choice but to find some new socks soon. Thank you for…

A Gift Card and Lingerie
I have gotten out of the habit of writing thank you notes on my blog, for those of you that continue to send gifts. I apologize and would like to start making a change; correcting that wrong, if you will. To my “hotinvestor” that found me on cam and soon after joined my site – first, thank you so much for the cam session, but also for joining my site. It means a lot that you support both avenues and I hope that you will continue to enjoy the weekly videos and the occasional cam session. I wanted to thank you for the $370 gift card you send for the…

Mom’s Oatmeal Cookies
For the last 10 months I have been baking oatmeal cookies, hoping to figure out Mom’s trick to making them fluffy and soft, without spreading flat. I have tried cold butter, melted butter, quick oats, old fashioned oats, different recipes, and still, once cooled down the cookie would flatten. And, when I say flatten, I mean paper thin and crunchy. I love crunchy, but not when I am trying to make oatmeal cookies like Mom used to bake. I remember the ingredients, so the recipes all were very simple and similar but with slightly different measurements. I was about to try Margarine, because that’s what I grew up on and…

A Month of Thanks
November is one of my favorite months, and that is because of Thanksgiving. I realize this is a holiday for the USA and our northern neighbors, the Canucks, and not all of us share the same sense of excitement as I do. I get it. We all have different perspectives and experiences, which is what makes us such a diverse community. I am thankful for the diversity in our group and always welcome newcomers. Allow me to share my perspective with you. I grew up in a very loving home but our family experienced a lot of tragedy. Although, my parents did their best to smile and let us be…

VNA and My Whacked Out Schedule
This next week is going to be a sporadic one for me online. It is not often that I have interruptions, but when I do, it seems as though it is all in the same week. But, it is what it is, and it truly cannot be avoided. I won’t be online Monday, which means I need to reschedule our VNA date and with Tuesday being Election Day, I’ve decided to push it to next week. Please block out Monday (9th) and Tuesday (10th) at 11p EST and we will certainly make up for lost time. As for the rest of the week, I will be on cam Tuesday and…
