December’s $50 Your Way Giveaway
Hard to believe that 2023 is only 31 days away. Holy Guacamole Batman this year went fast. My November was busy. Between the emergency trip to California to a slew of medical appointments for The Husband, November went FAST! I didn’t even get to make everyone crazy by putting up my Christmas decorations on November 1st!! I feel all outta sorts because of it! As a matter of fact (get ready to gasp!) I gave serious thought to NOT decorating at all this year! I KNOW RIGHT?!?! Me the 3 different trees and a million different decorations. Lucky for me The Husband pouted until I gave in and decorated on…

November 2022 $50 Your Way Giveaway
Whoaaaaa do you realize that there are only 61 days left of 2022!?!? That can’t be right can it!?! Yet Alexa tells me it’s true. That’s nuts! Time…. tooo fast! My October just flew by! Mostly because of a family tragedy, Son-in-Law Dan lost his Dad. I flew to California so that Dan could go be with his parents in Tennessee. Dan did make it there in time and now is with his Mom to help her through these first weeks. Although, it was a sad reason to be in California I get to be with Alice for Halloween, which does make me so happy. I return home to California…

July’s $50 Your Way Giveaway!
Yeeee haaaaa it’s July. Non camp 2022 is going strong. Being retired and well, OLD you forget that 11 year old girls don’t need to breathe. They can talk and talk and talk. (I KNOW! The nut doesn’t fall from the tree, that irony is NOT lost on me). We’ve crafted, hiked, cooked (AND cleaned up our mess too!!) We’ve gone fishing and caught sticks. I swear there are no fish in Lake Ponderay. We’ve Goodwill shopped where I learned that, had kept all my old clothes from the 70’s Alice would be the happiest kid in the world. I swear if it has fringe, tie dye or well just…

$50 Your Way May 2022 Giveaway!
Happy May Little Peanuts! I am so ready for some sunshine. Idaho can’t decide if it wants to snow, rain, or just be gloomy. So much so that it will do it all at the SAME TIME!! I am ready for some hiking and kayaking. April wasn’t exactly a great month for The Husband! First a nasty MS attack that put him back in a wheelchair. Add insult to injury The Husband was diagnosed with Wet Macular Degeneration which requires a SHOT IN THE EYE!! WITH a NEEDLE!! Of course, I filmed the whole thing and sent it to our kids. They both agreed that I should feel free to…

Hello April!! #Giveaway Win $50 Your Way! April 2022
Hello, little Peanuts. This month’s update is rather boring. I actually had to scroll through pictures on my phone to think of what I did in March. I was thinking that we didn’t do a hell of a lot. AND THEN I REMEMBERED! Got the car stuck on the drive. The driveway was solid ice. I slid backward and truly thought we were going over the side down the mountain. After three of those tries, The Husband brought out the tractor. While he was adding the shovel to the tractor our tenant Patty pulled up behind my car. While we were chatting, her car started sliding backward all I could…

$50 Your Way January 2022!!
I am aware of the TWITTER malfunction (i.e. no button) I’ve written to Giveaway Tools and asked for help. Waiting to hear back. OHHHHHHHHHH alright, maybe ONE or three more months. Maybe longer.
