I am so EXCITED and I am so OVERWHELMED! My husband has gone over and above this year. He has made me a little office area complete with desk and nice comfortable chair, and the technology I need….so that I can BLOG until my heart is content. He is such a sweetie.
(Hmmm….somehow I think having the kitchen table back may have come into play somewhere in all this…oh well…he is still a sweetie).
I had started a blog about a month and a half ago. It was not a . com thingy. (You can tell I am up to date with technology terminology….)
Then….my Son….did a labor of love as well and set me up with this Blog for my Christmas present from him. He brought the post I had already posted on the other site …and now well …. I am a .com!
That is, if I can learn to operate everything correctly. So I posted my hot corn recipe. It was supposed to go into my recipe section….do not think that happened….but I am sure it was operator error. I will have to work on that.
Today it is cool outside, the wood stove is warming things up nicely, I am gazing into the woods while I write from my new office space. I feel like I am in the country today for sure. The trees are bare since they dropped their leaves for the winter. The ground is covered with them. I like to hear the crunch they make when you walk through the woods. The rocks are cropping out of the mountainside, some slightly covered with a pretty green moss.
Yesterday we had our family Christmas brunch at our house. The smell of breakfast filled the air. It was great to enjoy our grown-up children and now our grandchildren. The kids were playing and started singing twinkle twinkle little star all together. It was so sweet. Funny how something like that can put a lump in my throat.
Then they get cranky and the lump is gone!
Poo-pa…which is what the grand children call my husband and one of our son in laws took all the kids and Ellie for a hike. I am so glad that they WANT to be outside. They all had a great time. I meanwhile was trying to glean information about how to use my new blog, before all my information loaded up in the car and drove away.
Today, Ellie is trying to recover.
And me….well let’s just say…I’m still trying. You would laugh if you knew how long I have been trying to work on this one post. Pitiful….
