Good days coming to an end...:(

As you know summer is so close we can taste it.  But for me it is meaning misery is about to begin. Yes, I am again having to work out of town. Last year I thought it would be something new and adventurous. This year however, I am aware of how it's all going down. Work, Work, Work, sleep a little, come home for barely 24 hours, Work Work Work. Well you get the idea. This week has been awful. The stress of how its approaching so fast even put a lovely coldsore on my face.  I am really dreading this year and hope it will be the last that i have to work out of town. Otherwise I am completely willing to quit and find something else. I just wanted to let those of you that help our family out so much in the summer, know how grateful we are to you. We know we inconvenience a lot of you and appreciate the time you take to make sure the kids are taken care of and that Keith doesn't starve inspite of himself. LOL Thanks again, and Hope everyone has a lovely summer.

Knowledge is Power...

In dealing with some personal issues this week, I decided that I needed to direct my attention elsewhere. So I took up my other new hobby, reading! As I was reading some personal accounts of a certain fellow. I discovered something. Knowledge is definitley power. Of course I've always heard this growing up but somehow it never clicked for me, until now. Even if I don't share this knowledge with other people, it makes me feel much more secure in my own self. Knowing that I have the knowledge inside myself to use whenever it is needed. I guess you could say it was an AH HA moment for me today. Now if I could just be sure I won't forget it in an hour that would be even better. :)

Savory Saturday!

It may be 8:30 at night, but it's still Saturday. So here is the menu this week. Keith chose all the recipes which made life sooo much easier! He found them all in a recipe app on his phone. So if any look appetizing or interesting and you would like to try them, just hit me up and I will email the recipe to you! Bon Apetite!

Whistling Wednesday!

Okay, I'm kicking myself for missing last week... But the other day I went to lunch with Keith and this song came on the Jukebox. It has no real meaning, but it is just kind of a feel good song. I never went along with the whole boycotting of the Dixie Chicks. They simply stated their opinions of things and that's okay by me! So for this weeks whistling wednesday I thought it would be fun to hear a couple songs I haven't in a LONG time. Feel free to crank it up and ENJOY!!

Savory Saturday!

After missing last weeks savory saturday, I firgured I should make this an extra good one. Keith even gave his input on this one! And you'll notice there is chicken 3 times this week!! I got all of my recipes this week from My Kitchen Cafe. The link is on the side of this post.

Sunday- Pork Roast, Mashed potatoes and Gravy, Deviled eggs (which will probably be all sorts of crazy colors from dye)

Monday- Meatball Marinara Sandwiches

Tuesday- BBQ Chicken Pizza

Wednesday- Black Bean Enchiladas, Corn and Bread

Thursday- Basil Pesto Pasta and spring Veggies

Friday- Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

Saturday- Lefovers

Whistling Wednesday!

Okay, two posts in one day. I must be crazy! But here goes. As I was adding the last post I was listening to the music player I have installed, and I got thinking... I love music! Especially music that hits you right down to the core or sends shivers up and down your spine. Maybe I'm a mental case, but there are even songs that can make me break down and cry like a baby. So because this is a blog about me I figured I would let you in on all these facts. Wednesdays I will try and post at least one new song. It will be a song that has moved me emotionally in one way or another. Now these may not be for everyone. I have a WIDE range of music that I listen to. Anything from Classical to oldies to the heavy angry metal music that your mother would pull her hair out if she heard it. But it might give you and insight into my style, whatever it may be. I'm still not so sure that I have a style, maybe one day when I grow up. :) Anyhow, today is Pink. She is an odd and outrageous character at times, but other times she can be a sensitive and striking individual. I love her strong voice and the lyrics she uses. If you get a chance you can find her live video of this song on Utube. It's even more awesome to watch her performance. Enjoy!

The Mighty Fisherman!

For sping break, Keith took Hunter and his week paid vacation and went FISHING! It's something he absolutley loves to do, no matter what the weather is! He went to Ellis (Just past Challis) and fished to his hearts content. His Dad met him there, and Uncle Kevin and his friend Jamie showed up a few days later. He had a great time, other than finding the camper refridgerator in smoke. Gotta love the fact that there is food all over the camper and the mice will find wires to chew on and cause a short!

Isn't he handsome!

Sorry the pic is sideways! But nice fish!
