    No Member Show Tonight

    Another reminder that I am in North Texas and not able to guarantee that I will be online for the weekly member’s show tonight(11p EST). If I am online, please join me through the site link for easy access, but I will not be doing the member’s show, regardless. lol. I know, wishy washy to an extent, but without knowing whether or not the wifi will be stable enough to host a 1 hour member show, I’d rather save the frustrations and make it up to you next week…

    Off to Texas

    I did not think I would be going back to Texas so soon after my divorce, but here I am, on my way to the Lone Star state. And, yes, on purpose. This post is just a reminder to follow my blog/tweets for the next eight days so that you can keep up with me, if you are so inclined to do so. I hope to be on cam from time to time, but there will be no set schedule. However, with that said, I will still do the VNA show Monday (February 18) at 11p EST.

    Spam Calls

    We all get them. Most of us ignore them. When I changed numbers in 2017, my daily spam calls stopped, and it was awesome! Gone were the multiple calls at random times, morning, noon and night. When I am asked by a business for my phone number at checkout, I decline. I am sorry, but I just want to buy this pair of socks, you don’t need my number. And, that attitude has protected me from the annoying spammers. That is until several months ago. I have two callers that call daily, at different times. Today I answered. The first was a lady that was speaking so fast I only…

    I am My Mother

    The older I get, the more like my mother I become. That is not a bad thing, by any means, but there was a time when I tried to be my own individual, trying my best to take no characteristics from my parents. I don’t know why, except it was my little bit of rebellion that I owned. They were great parents; I always knew that I was loved, and cared for. No matter their struggles in the adult world, they always put us first. Always. Yesterday I was making my smoothie and I decided to add a little bit of honey. I don’t know why, but I thought it…

    Another Win

    You guys continue to amaze me with the support, no matter what endeavor I am pursuing. I placed 3rd on VNA for January, and that is three months in a row that I was in the top three. I have taken many wins on the VNALive platform and it is all because of those who join me on Monday nights and give me your votes. Thank you to those who show up every so often, once a month, or every single week. I would not continue to offer member shows if it were not for those of you that join in and make it fun for me.

    Belated Wishes to Someone Special

    Nicster, I know this post is a couple of days late, but it is still made with heartfelt wishes. You have been one of mine for so many years that it is hard to believe we have celebrated your day for over a decade. That is crazy when it is put into perspective like that, and I cherish each one of the years we have spent together. I look back in astonishment that I am still online because it started out as a “hobby” for extra money, but it quickly turned into more. The reason I am putting that into words, in celebration of you, is because you were one…

    Do You Know…

    Do you know what love is? A 6 month old golden retriever. Do you know what is annoying? That 6 month old golden retriever with a squeaky toy walking from one end of the house to the other, squeeking contsantly. Do you know what is frustrating? When this 6 month old golden retriever hates her picture taken, until I am trying to do custom pictures for someone and she is not the subject requested. Do you know what happy is? The tail of the 6 month old golden retriever whacking the wall as she runs into the room.

    Happy Birthday to One of Mine!

    Ack! Ack! Ack! This was posted on Tuesday, the correct day, but I did not select “Blog”, and instead it was hanging in “uncategorized” limbo, posting to nothing… Bubba, I am sorry! So, here we go… This is a date that has been celebrated through my site for ten years now. That is just crazy! But, here we are, a decade later and still celebrating someone who deserves to be recognized and appreciated. Thank you, Bubba, for giving me your day to exploit. Whether in person, or from afar, I hope that you know how much you matter. So, on this day, have yourself an amazing celebration of you! I…

    The Messenger

    I’m always amazed at the thoughtfulness and generosity that has been shown to me from my online community. My last PO Box run was to pick up a few packages, and to mail off a big panty order. In one of the packages that was waiting for me was a beautiful messenger bag adorning elephants, which was not on my wishlist. Bubba, you have always been thoughtful and kind, thank you! I have already used it and love it! It is the perfect size to carry with me on over night trips and it will definitely be my go to bag now. It makes me smile each time I see…
