Win $50 YOUR Way Giveaway February 2024
Hello Little Peanuts! I hope that January was a good month for everyone. I hope that those of you who have been fighting colds feel much better. Life on the Mountain has been pretty calm. I FINALLY made it off the mountain to go pick up my CPAP machine. YUP! Your diesel generator, chainsaw Head Peanut SNORES. LOUD!! After a sleep study, I was diagnosed with severe Sleep Apnea. So, sleep mask it is. I was quite pleased to find out that all I need is a device that covers my nose and shoots in air. OKAY, OKAY fine it doesn’t really SHOOT in air but it does send in…

Happy New Year!! $50 Your Way Giveaway!
WOW! It’s the first giveaway for 2024!! Time is flying by. Idaho is still basically snow-free, which is weird. It hasn’t gotten below 20º here. WEIRD winter. Last December we were ready for snow-mageddon! Christmas was good. We did a family Facetime, it was loud and fun. At least I was able to watch everyone open gifts. It’s not as good as being there in person but it’s better than nothing at all. RIGHT!? RIGHT!! The Husband got a new Xbox (A group gift from everyone) and I haven’t seen him since. I got a sublimation printer for crafting. What does that mean? That means I can make fancy tumblers,…

$50 YOUR Way Giveaway December 2023
November just FLEW by! Or was it just me? I was so busy in November. GESH! I have a couple of posts coming up in the next few days that will explain JUST how busy! I’m a tired girl. Nothing real in the way of news from The Mountain. We had one day of snow that melted the very next day. We’ve been lucky. I have a feeling Mother Nature is saving up all her energy for a snow-mageddon. We are stocked up with food and plenty of wood, the propane tank is full. The Bull (Good ole John Deere) is ready and roaring to go. We are as ready…

$50 YOUR Way Monthly Giveaway! November 2023
Hello, little Peanuts. November is here. We are 62 days away from 2024?!?! WHAT!??! Yup, I’m full of great news today. Christmas is only 55 days away! Today we put the snow tires on my little orange Subaru. You can blame me if it snows tonight. I made a quick trip to California in October to watch my Granddaughter Alice perform Ursula in The Little Mermaid. Since I still can’t believe the set of pipes on this kid, I’m sharing the video again. She’s ONLY 12!! Wasn’t it just yesterday I was teaching her to read Pajama Time?? One more set of pictures. I finally went and retrieved the SDCard…

$50 Your Way Giveaway October 2023!!
Hello, Little Peanuts!! Happy October!! I am ONLY excited about October because of Halloween. I am NOT ready for snow. I was barely ready for the cold October wind and rain that North Idaho has gotten for the last few days. It’s cold enough to start our very first fire in the new wood-burning stove. Seriously, WHO builds a house on top of a mountain IN IDAHO (almost to the Canadian border) and doesn’t put in a fireplace or a wood-burning stove?!?! We finally rectified that over the summer. This stove is AMAZING!! THEN!! Because y’all know me and my twisted sense of humor I bought the set of SKULLS!!!…

Hello, Little Peanuts! I hope you had a most excellent July. I had the best July. An amazing family reunion for The Husbands 70th birthday.

$50 Your Way Giveaway July 2023
Happy July $50 Your Way Giveaway. My monthly updates are really cool actually. Our Stiltz Elevator is in and very, VERY helpful on laundry day and moving furniture! Yes! It is large enough for furniture or two people. Even our fur-baby BEAR would rather ride the elevator than walk up all these stairs. Yes, the real reason is that The Husband (he has MS) has great difficulty walking up the stairs. (You remember the stairs that are different sizes on all floors. GESH!!) Then we FINALLY (been on the list of must haves for 7 years) so we finally ordered our wood-burning stove. Okay, seriously WHO builds a house on…
