For this thoughtful post, I am turning to flower power. Since it is May in Kentucky, now is the prime time to add color to your outdoor view. This spring has seen a few new additions around here, both perennial and annual. The raised flower bed behind the garage that we built this spring is [...]

Posted in Gardening, Home, My Thoughts, tagged Gardening, Raised Bed Gardening, Thoughtful Thursday on April 26, 2012 | 2 Comments »
Despite having extra-warm temperatures for most of March and the first part of April, Mother Nature has gotten back to normal. Our area has been having its share of little “winters” the last couple of weeks, which means much cooler temperatures. Normally, this is no big deal, BUT when all of the plants decided to [...]

For those of you who have been following my blog for a while (thanks by the way!), you will know that I have been trying to “green” my cleaning routine for a while now. I have used store-bought non-toxic cleaners and was really impressed with their cleaning power, but not so impressed with the prices [...]

Today is March 1st, y’all! That means that spring and gardening are right around the corner. Can I get a woo-hoo?!?!? I really can’t complain about our winter weather this year since it has been so nice and mild, but I am itching to get my hands in the dirt and see some green things [...]

Today I am going to show you how I made the Valentine’s Day wreath that I posted a couple of days ago. There is always a wreath on our front door during fall and Christmas, but I didn’t have any for the rest of the year. When I looked at home stores, I found that [...]

C and I made a pact with each other to be more regular in our church attendance this year and January was a huge success. We made it every Sunday! Woo hoo! I know I have really enjoyed getting back into that routine and have gotten a lot out of the services since we have [...]

Up until the last few weeks, all of the photos on this blog were shot with a super-zoom compact Sony H7. C and I have had this camera for about four years or so and were really pleased with it. It was simple to use, but it also had a lot of different options if [...]
Thoughtful Thursday: Taking Inventory

It’s funny…when I started doing the Thoughtful Thursday posts a while ago, I was worried that when I sat down to write it nothing would come out. It has never failed though that some idea or “thought” would cross my mind and I would write about it. Sometimes it’s projects around our house or a [...]
