• Attention Audio Book Fans!

    I’m a big audio book fan. I listen on the treadmill (HELLO!! ME! Treadmill! 4 times now. It’s a start! I’m slow as molasses in the winter but I’m doin’ it!) Anyway, I listen on the treadmill, in the car, and with earphones at night to go to sleep, sitting here typing this post! I love ’em! I found Chirp. I don’t even know HOW I found Chirp. Every day they email me with a new set of deals. Some as low as .99¢ If the title or cover of the book appeals to me, I click Learn More Then I hit play sample. Now, if you are like me, you KNOW if the reader’s voice is one that will annoy the #$(*#$ out of you or not. The app is free on your phone. There are tons of books. Tons of different genres. TONS of deals and way cheaper than Audible. This isn’t a sponsored post, however, I get a coupon with every purchase, and I thought well, why not post it on here so you the Peanuts can enjoy a good book too. Then come back and tell me if you loved it or hated it?! OHMYGOSH a…

  • Picture Time!

    picture time cougar

    Picture time is my favorite time. I have a couple of really cool shots to share with you!! The sky on Sunday night was pretty spectacular so I thought I would share. While washing dishes I always stare out the window and there was all sorts of activity under the window. I saved the best for the last! 8 miles away!!  One of our neighbors has a BIG KITTY CAT (mountain lion) come visit his trail cam. This shot is TOO GOOD not to share!!!  YES, I know it’s bad but I REALLY, REALLY want my own trail cam shot of this kitty!!

  • Sunday Prayer List

    Prayer Sunday

    This is the 2nd week of the Sunday Prayer Requests.  I am co-hosting with my friend Sonya over at Sonya’s Happenings.  I hope you will go over and see Sonya’s site! She’s a sweetheart! As I said last week, I’m not a real religious person. I was raised Catholic. However, I haven’t been to church in years. I do believe in the higher power of God. I do say my prayers at night. I do believe in the power of prayer.  I don’t think prayers need to be formal I think you can just TALK to God. So many of us Peanuts could use a prayer said for them. Anytime you need it just stop by and request a prayer to be said in your name. You don’t have to say why. A simple “I could use some good thoughts this week” would be fine. If you want to elaborate feel free. In return when you are talking to YOUR Higher Power mention the Peanuts that are in need. In this day and age, financial problems, health problems, loneliness, sadness are all around us. Maybe our little prayer group can make a difference.  We won’t know until we try. I’m going to re-post this…

  • Trail Cam Friday!

    Trail cam pictures from Sandpoint Idaho

    After last weeks trail cam FINGERPRINT mishap, (YES! I do hold a grudge!) The first thing I did was go out and clean the camera lens.     Lens cleaned. Here is what our guests were up to this week. First some “Hey, ummm move over’s” a few “dancin’ struttin’ their stuff-ers” Then the snow bank that I had placed the trail cam on…… well, it melted and then there were 2 days of SKY!! And an EYE! Camera attached to the tripod The Husband built for me and then there was some romance. (Outside. Tsk Tsk! Shame on you for that line of thinking! You know who you are! MISS BARBARA!!) Then the turkeys showed up and wagged their tail feathers. Then a couple of just plain cute little shots. No bears, no raccoons and not mystery animals this time around. There is always next week!! I was going to move the camera back to the area around my craft room. HOWEVER, it’s been snowing the last two days soooooooooo it looks like the trail cam stays where it is for now, between the house and barn.
