HOMEMADE HOT FUDGE SAUCE



It is Sunday afternoon and I want a hot fudge sundae!  We live thirty minutes away from almost anywhere and I am too blame lazy to go shopping. I need hot fudge sauce and I'm not going to town to get it!

Then I remembered I used to make hot fudge sauce but couldn't for the life of me remember how.

I found a recipe and it is pretty good!

Thoughts On Retirement When Both Are Home!

What a beautiful picture!


Today's post is about taking the time to enjoy the time!  Yes, the time we are supposed to have when we stop working. Will you do it?  Do we do it? Sometimes, but if you ask me not near enough.

It has occurred to me that I too often post things to do!  Always things to do!  What is the matter with me?  I really need to slow down!  Who am I kidding?  Will I, that is doubtful.  Have I though since officially retiring?  Why come to think of it I have!

This post today isn't about my retiring only, have to include the husband retiring.  This is a retirement post for stay at home wives whose husbands retire. I won't say advice, because I'm not that good at that yet!

Join me as I think, laugh, want to cry, and just plain enjoy sharing our experiences.

We Are On A Mission In The Cotton Field



The cotton was still in the field just before harvesting, and it was so pretty. The boys were with me and we had been cooped up inside for long enough. It was time for some outdoor fun!

On this particular day, we were drawn into the cotton field something just didn't look right. Some of the cotton plants appeared to have been trampled down. What caused this we didn't know, but we were going to find out.  It wasn't long before the boys saw footprints, animal tracks of some kind all over the place.

We were off on a mission! Join us on this journey in pictures.

New Year Steps To Keeping Things Clean And Organized!




The holidays are gone. This house has been full of loved ones.  The decorations are taken down, the rooms seem really empty.  All of this brings to mind heavy cleaning and maybe, redecorating the spaces.

The first thing that comes to my mind is organizing spaces that haven't been gone through lately.  You know the bookshelves, cabinets, drawers, etc. I'm in the living room now with these thoughts.  Most rooms in the house could use some tuning up, some need overhauls.

Today talking about these things.
